The bottle-to-bottle loop

PET bottles are light, practical, non-breakable, and easy to recycle. At PET to PET Recycling, the raw material for new bottles is produced from old PET bottles using a modern, energy-efficient process that also prevents the material from being damaged. Approximately 1,3 billion PET bottles, or 33,000 tonnes, pass through this globally unique recycling loop each year.

The loop

An exceptional company

PET to PET Recycling Österreich GmbH – a company owned by the corporate groups Coca-Cola HBC Austria GmbH, Egger Getränke GmbH & Co OG, Rauch Fruchtsäfte GmbH & Co OG, S. Spitz GmbH, and Vöslauer Mineralwasser GmbH – is the only PET recycling plant operated by the Austrian beverage industry. The Austrian beverage industry recognised the potential of PET as a valuable raw material and has been ensuring that PET bottles can be reused in a sensible way since the plant went into operation in August 2007, thanks to a closed-loop material cycle.

· Challenging conditions: An initial sharp increase in processing volumes due to single-use deposit systems in neighbouring EU countries and Austria was followed by consumer reluctance in the second half of the year
· Price differences between primary and secondary goods and increasing cheap imports of secondary raw materials from non-EU countries are a growing problem
· Investments at the company's site: High-quality metal separation system for detecting and removing contaminants from beverage cans and a new 140 m³ silo for additional storage capacity successfully put into operation
· Outlook for 2026: Further automation steps planned in the washing plant and plant feeding
