GoodPac Now Using ENSO Biodegradable Bottles 0
ATLANTA, July 9 /PRNewswire/ — GoodPac Plastics, a Division of Goodwin Enterprises, Inc., known for their high quality PET bottles, announced today they are offering the ENSO biodegradable (Polyethylene terephthalate) bottle, the world’s first truly biodegradable and recyclable PET plastic bottle.
“Our customers and consumers have been asking for an environmentally friendly plastic bottle. We teamed up with ENSO Bottles, LLC, and RESILUX America, LLC to provide them with the world’s first truly biodegradable plastic water bottle,” said Jim Goodwin, President of GoodPac Plastics. “Over the years, we’ve taken special pride in producing high quality products. Now, by adding our environmentally friendly ENSO bottle, not only do we continue to offer excellent quality products and superior service, we are doing our part to help to encourage bottle recycling and effectively eliminating plastic bottle waste,” said Goodwin
Hugh Goodwin, CEO of GoodPac, was a pioneer in the bottled water industry, starting Crystal Springs Pure Water Co. back in the mid-1960′s in Decatur, Georgia. Today, GoodPac Plastics, still family owned and operated, has been providing high quality PET bottles since 1997.
ENSO Bottles, LLC, of Phoenix, Arizona is an environmental company dedicated to creating “Bottles for a Healthier Earth”. ENSO biodegradable bottles have been tested by The University of New Mexico, Department of Earth & Planetary Sciences, and Northeast Laboratories Berlin, Connecticut. ENSO bottles are FDA approved for contact with food and are OSHA approved as non-hazardous. ENSO bottles with EcoPure(R) are designed to biodegrade in anaerobic (no oxygen, no light) or aerobic and compostable environments. ENSO also has tested the physical properties to verify that the biodegradable PET has the ability to be intermingled with standard PET during recycling.
RESILUX America, LLC of Pendergrass, Georgia, a producer of resin preforms, is known worldwide in the PET packaging market. Originally based out of Belgium, RESILUX has been instrumental in the development, production, and distribution of the ENSO biodegradable preforms.
“We’re excited to be working with GoodPac to provide bottlers with the ENSO biodegradable bottle. Together, we’re going to have a huge impact on reducing plastic bottle pollution,” said Danny Clark, President of ENSO Bottles.
Gene Ross, Vice President of GoodPac, notes, “The use of biodegradable PET resin is essential ‘green’ technology for the entire beverage industry. We have biodegradable resin available NOW to produce an array of bottle sizes. Biodegradable PET can be used in stock bottles or proprietary bottle ideas and needs.”
ENSO bottles with EcoPure(TM) have been 3rd party tested and validated for biodegradability and recyclability using ASTM standards.
