Beaming Baby, the organic baby food manufacturer, is looking to move its products into 100% recycled plastic bottles.

 

The Devon-based firm has worked with the Carbon Trust to analyse its environmental impact and found that using recycled plastic bottles would have a significant effect on its carbon emissions.

 

Charlie Wynne, Beaming Baby managing director, said: "Carbon neutral labelling is very attractive to a lot of our customers who are ethically orientated.

 

"We're hoping that moving our bottles into recycled plastic will halve our carbon emissions in comparison to our competitors."

 

As well as being made from 100% recycled materials the bottles are also themselves fully recyclable.

 

Wynne said the firm hoped to complete the project within two months after completing final testing with suppliers.
