The plant polyphenols are extracted from green coffee beans and are joined by other additions like magnesium, plus natural fruit and herb flavors to form refreshing varieties like Lemon, Lime & Sage, Pomegranate & Basil and Blood Orange & Rosemary. After researching the increasing interest in plant-based diets, the brand identified a convenient way to deliver hydration along with the benefits of magnesium and plants. By the end of 2021, Buxton has committed to having all of its bottles made from 100% recycled PET and the new PLANT+ WATER by Buxton is set to be introduced in recyclable packaging made from 51% recycled PET.
