One of the examples we're most proud of is how our Anchor Light Proof ™ bottles are reused to make all sorts of products like recycling crates, shampoo bottles, and even building products like culvert pipes which are then used on our dairy farms.
That's what we call 'closing the loop'.
There is all sorts of interesting stuff happening. Check out a few of the projects below to see what Anchor bottles have been recycled into.
It can be tricky knowing where and how to start when it comes to recycling. With a big focus on minimising our carbon foot print and preventing waste we've put together a few tips and tricks that may help you with your recycling journey.
Hotels these days are really keen to do their bit to reduce waste and their impact on the environment.
We've partnered with Health Pak who supply all sorts of personal care products to hotels and motels throughout New Zealand. They've developed the new eco logic range which is made from 100% recycled Anchor Light Proof™ bottles.
What happens when you add Fonterra recycling crates, Kiwi schools, paper and cardboard, and native trees? The Paper4trees programme of course!
Anchor is a proud partner of the Paper4trees programme. As part of our partnership, Anchor contributes 1150 crates annually to schools New Zealand wide.
Ever wondered what might happen to the Anchor Light Proof™ bottle when it ends up in your recycling bin? Well, the bottles processed by Astron Sustainability are washed, ground, filtered and re-extruded into a product called ‘recycled polymer’ which can then be used by all sorts of people for all sorts of products. Astron Sustainability has this down to a fine art.
