PepsiCO – reuse packaging (refill at home)
PepsiCo has eliminated the need to use disposable bottles for bottling carbonated water by providing consumers with a home carbonation system.
This practice is specific to life extension models, which aim at upgrading services for longer-life products.
Features:
- Brand loyalty: Making a device available at home increases brand loyalty;
- Convenience: Reduces space requirements and eliminates the need to travel to the store to purchase bulky bottles;
- Customisation: Allows users to adapt to their preferences by offering a variety of flavours and controlling the level of carbonation;
- Prevention: Reduce litter by eliminating the use of PET plastic packaging;
- Carbon emissions: SodaStream reduces carbon emissions of sparkling water by up to 87% compared to bottled mineral water;
- Economic benefits: Reduction of resources used by maintaining existing products.
