India’s first 100% rPET beverage bottle produced on Starlinger’s recycling line

Source：Adsale Plastics Network Date ：2023-08-10 Editor ：RC

Coca-Cola India has launched its new 100% rPET water bottle, which is the first food or beverages packaging in India that is made of 100% recycled plastic. The food-grade rPET for the new bottles is produced by Srichakra Polyplast on a Starlinger PET bottle-to-bottle recycling line.

The Starlinger recoSTAR PET 165 iV+ PET bottle-to-bottle recycling line at Srichakra’s production facility in Hyderabad, Telangana State, has taken up production in 2021 and was the first bottle-to-bottle recycling line Starlinger installed in India.

The line features technology for processing post-consumer PET bottles and has positive scientific opinions from the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and approvals from the Food Safety Standards Authority of India (FSSAI).

Starlinger’s recycling line at Srichakra’s facility produces the rPET bottles for Coca-Cola.

Starlinger’s PET recycling process ensures thorough decontamination of the PET in the recycling process and produce food-safe rPET pellets for PET food and beverage packaging. The produced rPET pellets are suitable for food-contact and can be used for food and beverage packaging like bottles for water and carbonated soft drinks, food trays, etc.

Founded in 2010, Srichakra Polyplast is a leading end-to-end recycling and plastic waste management company based in Hyderabad, India. The company has already ordered another two Starlinger PET bottle-to-bottle recycling lines, which will be delivered in the beginning of 2024.

The use of recycled plastics helps to reduce consumption for virgin plastics significantly and avoids plastic waste and environmental pollution. Coca-Cola India’s launch of the first 100% rPET bottle aligns with its vision of creating a World Without Waste through reducing environmental footprint and contributing towards creating a circular economy.
