Recycled Paper Bottle Concept by Brandimage

11-26-08paperbottle1.jpgHere's an innovative water packaging solution made from paper, by Brandimage. Unlike plastic bottles which we hear so much about, a paper bottle would be truly recyclable, compostable and innovative.

 
 

The 360 Paper Bottle is the first of its kind which if brought to market, would help aleviate the some 60 million plastic bottles thrown out by Americans each day. Though some of those plastic bottles get recycled (14%), even those that are recycled use energy in doing so.

The 360 Paper Bottle is made from 100% renewable resources and could be used in a wide range of consumables, and is completely food-safe.

??? I want to know how the paper holds water, but remains recyclable. I also want to know what the 'renewable materials' are. There is certainly a place for this, but it would be better if people just got a reusable bottle and stopped the trash flow altogether.

This is stupid. Buy a few aluminum water bottle and use them over and over and over. No need to recycle.

I don't think this is stupid at all! Reusable aluminum bottles are great for some people, but there are many circumstances where light, disposable bottles are necessary - offhand, I suggest these might include disaster relief, big events like rallies, concerts or marathons, etc. I own a platypus bottle and have cut way down on my disposable water bottle ways, but I have been known to forget my bottle from time to time, and buy one when I'm in need. I would love to buy compostable when that happens!
