Save your caps
In early 2024, the NZ government standardised kerbside recycling rules across Aotearoa. Unfortunately, this means that items under 50mm, including bottle caps and sipper caps are no longer accepted in kerbside recycling collection, due to their size. To tackle this, our bottling partner CCEP, along with industry partners and The Packaging Forum, have launched a bottle cap and lid collection scheme. Collection boxes are now available at 15 Foodstuffs supermarkets across Auckland, Tauranga and Christchurch. You can find all you need to know about the new Scheme.
