PepsiCo's LIFEWTR will be packaged in 100% rPET, and bubly will no longer be packaged in plastic. Also, the AQUAFINA water brand will offer aluminum can packaging in U.S. food service outlets, while the brand tests the move in retail.
The changes, which will go into effect next year, are expected to eliminate more than 8,000 metric tons of virgin plastic and approximately 11,000 metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions, representing the latest ambitious steps in the company's sustainability journey and pursuit of a circular economy for plastics. They reinforce and advance PepsiCo's goals to by 2025 make 100% of its packaging recyclable, compostable or biodegradable and use 25% recycled plastic content in all its plastic packaging.
