Every year, 400 million tons of plastic are produced of which 40% is disposable. These include plastic bags, many beverage packaging and potato chip bags. One of the largest industries using disposable plastics is the beverage industry.
The shape of plastic bottles is inefficient for transport. There is a lot of empty space between the bottles, which means that one truck can hold fewer bottles. This results in more transportation, which has a negative impact on the environment
Carrying large amounts of large plastic bottles from the store can be challenging and frustrating. Large bottles don't fit all refrigerators and to fill a glass with a drink, the bottle must first be removed from the refrigerator. We try to solve this problem with our packaging.
Even though plastic bottles are made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is highly recyclable, most plastic bottles produced end up in landfills, nature or in the ocean. Microplastic in nature is ingested by birds, fish and other organisms causing problems for all living things.
Used bottles cause a lot of waste traffic even if they are crashed or part of a circulating system. Empty bottles still take a lot of space when they are transported to landfill or further handling.
People have a negative impact on the environment in many ways: overpopulation, pollution, using fossil fuels, and deforestation. Things lead to climate change, soil erosion, poor air quality and undrinkable water.
We brought together Finnish CEOs, designers and beverage business professionals and gave them a challenge...
The plastic required to produce NWB Bevel is 72% less than PET alternatives.
Our NWB Bevel is designed to make the most efficient use of the transport space. Compared to a standard PET bottle, NWB Bevel requires up to 35% less space for transport and storage.
NWB Bevel is easy to recycle and the waste volume is much less than a bottle. There is no packaging waste from secondary packaging or additional in-between support materials on a pallet.
NWB Bevel is designed with the modular approach: two matching packs form a 2-pack unit, which is stackable and fills the euro-pallet perfectly. There is no need for a secondary cardboard box as in traditional BiB packaging. This makes the production line simpler and faster.
NWB Bevel uses less plastic and is easy to recycle, which reduces its environmental impact. You just remove the bag from the box. The bags are light and the volume is much less than a bottle. The box can be folded and circulated after use.
NWB Bevel is easier to use than a regular plastic bottle. All NWB Bevel pack sizes fit in the fridge, keeping the liquid cooler and it is convenient to use straight from the shelf.
