Did you know that choosing refills over new packaging can save 70% CO₂, 65% energy, and 45% water use? By making packaging easy to recycle and refill, Roberts is encouraging people and businesses to be more conscious of how packaging impacts the planet.
Recyclable and Refillable Aluminium Containers
Recyclable and refillable aluminium containers significantly reduce environmental impact. Aluminium is 100% recyclable and can be recycled indefinitely without losing quality, using 95% less energy than primary production. This results in fewer emissions and a smaller carbon footprint. In 2023, the UK achieved a 68% recycling rate for aluminium packaging, with 162,357 tonnes recovered. Beverage cans hit an impressive 81% recycling rate.
