The benefits of buying plastic bottles in bulk for your packaging are more than most people generally think. Especially when it comes to plastic juice bottles or soda bottles, making a decision about what material to use for packaging is one of the most important decisions a beverage business can make. Most of the time, the choices come down to plastic or glass. And although it may seem that the first option is not so convenient, the truth is that it has several advantages over other materials. Many times people think that plastic containers are less environmentally friendly than their counterparts. However, nothing could be further from the truth. It is true that plastic can take thousands of years to degrade, but it is a very easy material to recycle, and above all, it is economical.
Some of the benefits of plastic packaging for beverage bottles are as follows:
Environmentally friendly
Plastic materials require less energy consumption for their production. In addition, being lighter, they allow fuel savings during transportation and subsequently a reduction in the weight of the garbage. Finally, once transformed into waste, plastics can be recovered through recycling or incineration with energy recovery. In addition, plastics are lightweight, versatile, durable, electrically insulating, and absorb impact energy, among other qualities.
High resistance
Plastic containers are practically unbreakable, which prevents spills or damage to food products.
Hygienic
They are allowing the consumer to see the product, its color, freshness, and composition, avoiding deterioration and complying with hygiene rules.
