Green engagement

Much like traditional oil-based plastics, but with the crucial benefit of being 100% compostable.

Traditional oil-based bottles, start to leak toxins to the water after just months.

Manufacturing PLA plastics uses 65% less energy and produces 68% fewer greenhouse gas emissions.

PLA switch offers the guests a tangible environmentally friendly argument, helping hotels gain publicity and earn media attention.

Unconventional no-label layout

Traditionally, bottled water always carries a plastic label to feature its brand.

Making a difference, we just print the design on the naked bottle, instead of posting a label/sticker.

No-label layout looks much more premium and gorgeous.

Absolute no label!

FAQ What is the China’s first compostable bottle?

51Bottle Limited is the first beverage company in China to exclusively use PLA materials to bottle its products. Our water bottles are completely compostable. They are approved and certified as commercially compostable by various organizations. Initial testing has demonstrated that a 51Bottle water bottles will degrade within 180 days in a commercial composting situation. A traditional plastic bottle will never biodegrade.

How does our bottle composting process work?

It needs high heat, micro-organisms and high moisture levels to break down. It will not degrade as rapidly in a home compost pile. When exposed to the necessary conditions, our bottles will break down into water, carbon dioxide and organic material.

How long does it take for our bottle to disappear?

Given the right composting conditions including high heat, humidity and micro-organisms, our bottle will disappear in about 180 days.

Will the bottle ever decompose on the shelf?

In order for our bottle to degrade it must be opened, emptied and placed under the right conditions.

How is our bottle made?

As part of its natural photosynthesis process, corn stores carbon from the air in the starchy portions of the plant. Our bottles are made by developing a resin that begins with harvesting corn and breaking down the starches into natural plant sugars. The next step in this simple, yet patented process includes fermentation, separation and polymerization to make what is called plastic polylactide, or PLA.

Because it's made from corn, can I eat it?

As a plastic product, it's not recommended that our PLA containers be consumed.

Is this corn product safe to use with food?

PLA bottles are approved by the FDA for food and water contact.

Will our bottles affect the plastic recycling process?

Studies have shown that there is no affect on the quality of recycled product when PLA makes up to 1% of the plastic mix. That's a lot of bottles! However, we are closely working with relevant departments to improve the recycling process.

Petroleum packaging vs. corn packaging

The difference between petroleum-based packaging and corn-based packaging is like night and day.... Simply stated, our PLA corn packaging is both compostable and recyclable. Initial testing has demonstrated that a PLA bottle made from corn degrades in 120-180 days in a commercial compost situation. Petroleum based PET bottles will not compost. Corn packaging provides an annually renewable, nature-based alternative to traditional non-renewable, fossil fuel, petroleum-based plastic materials. Moreover, PLA uses 30% to 50% less fossil fuel to produce than petroleum-based plastics. Because they are made from corn, PLA bottles burn clean and do not release harmful chemicals into the atmosphere. Everyone wants to make a difference...now you can.
