Sustainability
Absopure’s Green Initiatives
At Absopure, all our products are clean, fresh and ecologically responsible—closing the bottled water recycling loop through ecological measures that place a priority on environmental sustainability. Learn more about the ways we’re proactively reducing waste and reusing materials from our products.
Reusing Material
As one of the first bottled water companies to recycle its own plastic bottles over 35 years ago, Absopure has been a leader in establishing eco-friendly practices. Since 1988, Absopure has partnered with our recycling affiliate Clean Tech to reuse the material from our plastic bottles. Today, Clean Tech, a Dundee, Michigan-based recycling plant, processes more than 200 million pounds of plastic each year—keeping 8 billion bottles out of landfills annually.
Giving Old Plastic New Life
For over a decade, we’ve been making our Eco-Pak™ water bottles out of the material we recycle from used bottles. In 2022, we hit a technology breakthrough that allowed us to add even more recycled content to these environmentally friendly bottles. Now, our Eco-Pak™ bottles contain 25% recycled plastic from recycled bottles, more than doubling the amount of reused plastic.
100% Recyclable Bottles
All of our single-serve water bottles are made to be 100% recyclable, including our Eco-Pak™ bottles! But we don’t stop there. We also collect Absopure returnable five-gallon bottles, sanitize them carefully and refill them to be used in our water coolers for as long as possible. Reusing these bottles cuts down our plastic waste significantly. And when they are done being used, the bottle is 100% recyclable.
Bringing Recycling to You
Absopure offers empty bottle pickup as part of our home and office delivery services to make recycling as convenient as possible. By picking up used products, we’re able to increase the number of bottles that can be turned into something new.
Clean and Green Communities
Absopure is proud to sponsor and donate to a variety of community events, providing cases of water to keep attendees healthy and hydrated. We ensure recycling bins are distributed at every event, that way our bottles can be properly recycled. We’re happy to make taking care of the Earth easy while still allowing everyone to have fun!
