The Coca-Cola New Compact Freestyle machine is the latest addition to the brand's lineup of soda dispensers that are arriving in Europe to put more control in the hands of the consumer.
The soda machine provides consumers with the ability to personalize drinks to their exact preferences, while also allowing them to use their own reusable bottles. This will help to reduce carbon emissions, packaging and waste. The machine also maintains an ultra-compact design that will save ample space in the retail environment.
Coca-Cola President of Europe Nikos Koumettis spoke on the trial of the Coca-Cola New Compact Freestyle machine saying, "The findings of our preliminary analysis promisingly show that the New Compact Freestyle can have a lower carbon footprint per serving compared to traditional packs, such as cans and PET bottles. This is hugely encouraging given the importance to deliver meaningful action on sustainability for Coca-Cola, and our customers and consumers."
