    Recently, Nestle promised that its Buxton natural mineral water brand will be made from 100% recycled PET material (rPET)


    .


    In November, Nestlé launched 100% rPET bottles in the 750ml and 1L ranges, and other plastic bottles currently contain at least 20% rPET


    .


    These steps by Nestlé will greatly reduce the amount of virgin plastic in circulation


    .


    Michel Beneventi, UK business executive, Nestlé Waters, said, “We are very pleased to be able to put our sustainability commitments into practice


    .


    "We wanted to quickly make all of our Buxton plastic bottles from recycled materials, but there were a lot of challenges to doing that - first we had to make sure the materials we used were high-quality food grade


    .


    Since there are currently no facilities in the UK to mass-produce this rPET material, Nestlé relies mainly on rPET material suppliers outside the UK to supply recycled material for Buxton bottles


    .


    Beneventi added: “We want to be able to produce UK drinking water bottles in the UK


    .


    Nestlé has committed to making 100% of its packaging recyclable or reusable by 2025
