Environment

The Alabama Beverage Association makes a significant impact on the economy. At the same time, we work to have minimal impact on the environment.

We’re eliminating waste. Our lightweighting of packaging saves hundreds of millions of pounds of raw materials from landfills.

We’re recycling. We produce 100% recyclable beverage containers. We reuse valuable aluminum, plastic and glass, down to the caps.

We’re improving the fuel efficiency of our fleets delivering nonalcoholic beverages. Nationwide, we’ve increased average miles per gallon by 13% since the beginning of the decade.

We’re saving water—across the U.S.—14% per unit over the past five years.
