Coca Cola’s Namibia recycling partnership turns bottles into brighter futures

An investment of more than $1.2-million through a partnership between Coca-Cola Beverages Africa (CCBA) and plastic packaging company Plastic Packaging has culminated in the opening of a new polyethylene terephthalate (PET) flaking plant in Okahandja, Namibia. The plant is expected to double the capacity of the only mechanical recycler of plastic waste in the country.
