Winner of prestigious DuPont Award for Packaging Innovation Meet the Customers 1.Who Are The Customers? 3.Why Is Their Role Important? Coca-Colas substitution of renewable plant-based material for fossil-based petroleum resources in making PlantBottle packaging provides for a reduction of potential carbon dioxide emissions associated with end-of-life destruction of the package as compared to a conventional 100% petroleum-based bottle, because some of the carbon atoms in PlantBottle packaging come from a renewable source, sugarcane, and emission of those carbon atoms would be offset by the next sugarcane crop’s use of carbon dioxide in the plant’s photosynthesis process. Coca-Colas work to understand the full range of carbon impacts associated with PlantBottle packaging as compared to traditional 100% petroleum-based PET plastic bottles continues. Coca-Colas is working with leading experts and thinkers on the subject. Coca-Colas will update their work in this area on this website so that the carbon footprint of PlantBottle packaging is known. a.Coca-Colas customers are grocery stores, restaurants, street vendors, mass merchandisers, convenience stores, drug stores, movie theaters and amusement parks- among others.
