Compostable water bottles

GS-companies involved with the production of PLA preforms and blown PLA bottles for many years. We now have a network of several bottlers in the USA and Europe that are able to blow and fill our PLA preforms with water. If you are a water bottler or somebody in need of a sustainable solution for providing bottles of water oat your company/event/location, please contact us for our options. 

Compostable water bottles, how did it start?

PLA preform manufacturer

Our innovative approach to producing PLA bottles and caps allows us to provide sustainable solutions to water bottlers and event organizers looking for plant-based alternatives. With a focus on creating 100% biobased products, we offer a wide range of solutions tailored to meet diverse needs.

Supporting Water Bottlers with Sustainable Solutions

For water bottlers, we deliver a comprehensive product portfolio that includes:

  • PCO 1810 preforms for 330ml to 500ml bottles

  • 1881 preforms for 500ml bottles

  • 38mm neck bottles for 250ml, 500ml, and 1-liter options

  • Caps for 28mm and 38mm bottles, made from 100% biobased materials

  • Other preform, bottle and cap designs and sizes are possible within our production facility. 

Additionally, we provide filled bottles with high-quality water available in the United States and Europe, offering a turnkey solution for companies looking to source sustainable bottled water.

Plant-Based Bottles for Events and Companies

For companies or event organizers seeking eco-conscious alternatives, our PLA bottles offer a safe and sustainable option. These bottles are free from toxic chemicals and do not release microplastics, addressing growing concerns about health and environmental impacts. By choosing our PLA bottles, you contribute to reducing waste and promoting a cleaner, greener future.

A Complete Plant-Based Solution

One of the critical advantages of our product line is the complete plant-based composition of our bottles, caps, and labels. Unlike traditional petroleum-based components, which can introduce contamination into composting or recycling processes, our fully biobased design ensures compatibility with various end-of-life pathways. Whether the bottles are recycled, composted, or used for energy recovery, their plant-based nature guarantees minimal environmental impact.

Versatility in Applications

Our product range caters to various needs, from customized solutions for events to scalable production for bottlers. Our PLA preforms and bottles are compatible with existing PET injection and blow-molding machines, ensuring a seamless integration into your production systems. This versatility allows for the efficient production of high-quality bottles with minimal adjustments to your equipment.

Ready for the Future

As global demand for sustainable packaging solutions continues to grow, our PLA bottles, caps, and filled water products represent a significant step forward in reducing plastic pollution. By offering products that are safe, environmentally friendly, and easy to integrate into existing production systems, we empower companies to make responsible choices without compromising on quality or functionality.

The Hidden Risks of PET Bottles: Microplastics and Toxic Leaks

At PLA Bottles.eu, we believe in creating a healthier planet, free from the hidden dangers of traditional plastic bottles. While PET (polyethylene terephthalate) bottles are widely used for beverages and other products, they come with serious environmental and health concerns. Here’s why PET bottles are problematic—and how our PLA bottles offer a safe, eco-friendly alternative.

The Problem with Microplastics

PET bottles degrade over time, breaking down into microscopic fragments known as microplastics. These tiny particles are not only pervasive in the environment but are also entering our food chain and drinking water.

  • Environmental Impact: Microplastics pollute oceans, rivers, and soils, harming marine life and ecosystems. Fish and other marine animals mistake microplastics for food, leading to bioaccumulation of these particles in the food chain.
  • Health Risks: Humans inadvertently consume microplastics through contaminated water and food. Emerging research suggests that microplastics can carry harmful chemicals, disrupt hormones, and may pose long-term health risks.

Toxic Chemicals Leaking from PET Bottles

PET bottles can leach harmful substances into the liquids they contain, particularly when exposed to heat, sunlight, or reused multiple times.

  • Release of Toxins: Chemicals like antimony, bisphenol A (BPA), and phthalates may leach from PET bottles into beverages. These substances are linked to hormonal imbalances, developmental issues, and even certain types of cancer.
  • Reusability Concerns: While PET bottles are often reused, their porous surfaces can harbor bacteria and facilitate further chemical leaching.

The PLA Bottles Solution

Our PLA (polylactic acid) bottles are the answer to the challenges posed by PET bottles. Made from renewable, plant-based materials, PLA bottles are designed with both your health and the environment in mind.

  • No Microplastics: Unlike PET, our PLA bottles do not degrade into harmful microplastics, making them a safer choice for the environment and future generations.
  • Non-Toxic: PLA bottles are free from harmful chemicals. They do not leach toxins into your beverages, ensuring a pure, healthy drinking experience.
  • Eco-Friendly: PLA is biodegradable under industrial composting conditions, reducing waste and minimizing environmental impact.
 

Join the Movement for a Cleaner, Safer Future

Switching to PLA bottles is more than just a choice—it’s a commitment to protecting our planet and prioritizing health. By choosing PLA Bottles, you are helping to eliminate the dangers of microplastics and toxic chemical exposure, paving the way for a sustainable and healthier future.
