Packaging

Can the I·DO bottles be returned?

No, that is currently not possible. The deposit bottles can easily be dropped off at supermarkets to keep transport routes short. The I DO juice bottle can be returned to the recycling cycle and used again.

What material are the I·DO bottles made from?

The I·DO bottles are made from 100% recycled polyethylene terephthalate (R-PET). The bottles should be disposed of with the plastic waste so that they can be returned to the recycling cycle - more recycling for more environmental protection!

Recycled PET is not newly produced PET made from petroleum, a finite resource, but rather PET that has already been used for packaging and has been prepared for reuse through an established recycling process. Life cycle assessments clearly show that recycled PET has a lower carbon footprint than newly produced PET.

For us, R-PET is just a transitional solution towards even more sustainable packaging. The first tests with innovative packaging forms have already been promising and we look forward to being able to tell you more about them soon.

Can the I·DO bottles be thrown into organic waste or compost?

Unfortunately that is not possible. The I·DO bottles are made from 100% recycled polyethylene terephthalate (R-PET). The bottles should be disposed of with the plastic waste so that they can be returned to the recycling cycle - more recycling for more environmental protection!

Where can I·DO returnable bottles be dropped off?

The I·DO deposit bottle can be handed in at all supermarkets that sell deposit items.

Why is there a deposit on I·DO bottles?

In order to keep as much plastic as possible in the cycle and reduce the production of new plastic, the I·DO juice bottle contains a deposit symbol which makes it possible to return the most sustainable I·DO juice bottle to the recycling cycle and reuse it. Apart from that, deposits will be mandatory throughout Germany from January 2022, meaning that all disposable plastic bottles will generally be subject to a deposit.

How can the packaging material be disposed of?

I·DO products are sent in a sustainable (more) refrigerated package, which is made from packaging and insulating materials that are as environmentally friendly as possible.

R-PET bottles:

The I·DO bottles are made from 100% recycled PET material. The bottles should be disposed of with the plastic waste so that they can be returned to the recycling cycle.

Insulating cardboard made from sustainable raw materials:

Thanks to the I·DO insulating cardboard, Styrofoam or other materials can be dispensed with. It is best disposed of with paper waste and is completely recyclable.

Cooling elements:

The ice packs consist of a water-based gel. They are absolutely harmless and food safe. The ice packs can be reused or alternatively disposed of with household waste.

Can small parts come out of the packaging that would be unhealthy if I drink them?

No, that can't happen.
