They are designed to help reduce the amount of plastic in the world. Ideally, all used plastic would be recycled. However, not even all of what is collected is actually recycled. Much of it ends up in the landfill as well. The ECO 1 GREEN Bottle from Paper Water BottleTM solves that problem by being landfill biodegradable* and completely recyclable.
ENSO RESTORE is an additive we use in our barrier material to accelerate the natural degradation of plastic in landfill environments. The addition of ENSO means our bottle is 100% recyclable and 98% landfill biodegradable.*
When plastic (or any other material) degrades from the action of naturally occurring microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi and algae as found in all landfills. Biodegradation can occur in either aerobic (with oxygen) or anaerobic (without oxygen) environments.
98% of Paper Water Bottle is biodegradable*...only the cap not. In a modern landfill, 98% by weight will convert to clean energy.
From ENSO Plastics website: “ENSO RESTORE™ accelerates the natural biodegradation of plastics in biologically active landfills and anaerobic digesters as validated by independent certified laboratories using ASTM International test methods. Independent third-party testing has shown up to 30.3% biodegradation in just 391 days in landfill replicated testing (ASTM D5526)."
The bottle comes pre-filled with 9.5h Alkar and or spring water ready for water. so enough selling plastic water bottles that never recycles and damages our environment and help lead the change in stopping the use of plastic bottle for water, juices and any other liquid substance that plastic bottles are use to contain. custom labeling is also available.
