New attached caps for Coca-Cola and Fanta bottles
The roll-out of attached caps to 500ml plastic bottles is being extended to help improve recycling rates, reduce litter and prevent waste. Customers will start to see the new attached caps design appear on bottles of Coca-Cola Zero Sugar, Diet Coke and Fanta Zero, before being rolled out across all Coca-Cola brands and pack sizes by the end of 2024.
The new design enables the cap to stay connected to the bottle after opening, making it easier to recycle the entire package so no cap gets left behind. The message on the bottle cap has also been changed to ‘I am attached to recycle together’.
All of Coca-Cola’s bottles, including the caps, have been 100% recyclable for many years but not every part of the bottle is being recycled due to bottle caps being discarded.
This is just one of the actions Coca-Cola is taking towards its commitment to a World Without Waste, which will see the company help collect and recycle a bottle or can for every one it sells by 2025.
