TOKYO -- Japanese beverage group Suntory Holdings aims to make all of its plastic bottles renewable by 2030, turning to a combination of recycled and plant-based materials, Nikkei has learned.
The move, which is expected to entail roughly 50 billion yen ($457 million) in investments -- including in a new U.S. factory -- comes as companies bolster efforts to reduce plastic waste. Plastic waste has become a major factor in maritime pollution.
