As the movement to reduce plastic waste spreads, five companies from different industries have started an experiment to encourage the use of my bottles in the workplace in order to reduce the waste of PET bottles and paper cups discharged in the office. ..
The experiment started on the 18th with the participation of five companies from different industries, such as real estate companies that operate office buildings, electrical equipment manufacturers, and beverage manufacturers.
On the 7th floor of the real estate company's head office, which will be the venue, a coffee machine will be installed in the center, and stainless steel bottles will be distributed to approximately 300 employees working on this floor.
In order to reduce the time and effort required to wash my bottles, which is an issue for the spread of my bottles, we have also installed a washing machine exclusively for my bottles provided by an electric manufacturer.
When the experiment started, the employees immediately put their bottles on the machine and put in their favorite drinks.
According to real estate companies, there are an estimated 18,000 PET bottles and 38,000 paper cups a year on this floor.
I'm going to verify how much My Bottle is used in an experiment for about a month, which leads to waste reduction.
Risako Abe, chief of Tokyo Tatemono, said, "First of all, we will pay attention to how employees' awareness of the environment will change, and in the future, we will propose to companies that are occupying our office buildings, which will lead to waste reduction." I did.
