Our paper bottles is the fitting alternative to single use plastic. Our environment friendly bottles are made of waste paper, which is made into pulp. The pulp is molded into two halves, which are then coated with a waterproofing solution and glued together using hot press to create the bottle. The bottles are 100% compostable, sustainable, and brandable.
Patent Details for Paper Bottle:
Application No.: 202111030585
Filing Date: July 07, 2021
Title: Paper Pulp Based Products, Their Compositions and Method of Manufacturing the Same.
1. Paper Seal- A Paper Seal to hold the cork. This prevents spilling and ensures safety of the product from getting contaminated.
2. Cork Seal- In order to make it 100% eco-friendly, a wooden cork is specially designed to cap the bottle. This is tapered down and ensures little spilling. In addition, it is practically impervious to liquids and is essentially slip-proof, which guarantees that the bottle stays perfectly sealed.
3. Neck- In order to hold the shape of the bottle, the neck plays a very important role. Its sturdy shape forms the basis of the entire bottle. The pasting of 2 sides is also critical at the neck.
4. The most important part of the bottle is the pasting of the two halves. Using state of the art technology and specially designed machines, pasting is done with a lot of precision to ensure there is no leakage.
5. Using a proprietary waterproofing solution, we coat the inners layers to create a barrier that allows oxygen transmission. This layer is 100% Compostable and will disintegrate into the soil in just a few months.
6. Waste paper pulp creates the outer layer of the bottle. The thickness is just right to make the bottle sturdy but not too bulky. The fibres in the waste paper enable it to become long lasting. The shelf-life of our bottle is therefore 6 months.
OUR JOURNEY
“What we stand for is what we stand on” Wendell Berry
220 million plastic bottles are produced every day.
80% of them end up in landfills.
It takes 450 years for each bottle to decompose. Every plastic bottle we ever used is still somewhere on the planet.
These numbers and the toll single use plastic bottles have on our planet drove our founder Samiksha Ganeriwal to find an innovative solution. She was acutely aware that every time she bought something in single use plastic containers, she was choking the planet even more. The market had no eco - friendly alternative. This motivated her to create an alternative solution that is recyclable, reduces plastic significantly and is truly eco friendly.
We are working on making India’s first paper bottle but the journey till here is marked with challenges. Our team is working hard to fulfil this dream and soon we will have a 100% biodegradable solution to liquid packaging.
