Coca-Cola Japan has announced that it aims to increase the ratio of recycled material in its plastic bottles to 90% by 2030. The move comes in response to environmentally friendly initiatives from domestic rivals including Suntory and Kirin Beverage Company. US parent Coca-Cola is aiming for just 50% recycled content by that year. Coca-Cola Japan also announced its intention to introduce new bottles made entirely from recycled or plant-based materials, with zero use of new fossil-fuel-originated materials, by 2030. The Japanese government hopes to reduce disposable plastic waste by 25% by that date.
