The bottle itself is also 100% recyclable and will be used for all five of the brand's products, including its Tomato Ketchup and Reduced Sugar Tomato Ketchup, as well as the Real Mayonnaise, Brown Sauce and Original Barbecue. The packaging makes the most of food-grade recycled PET plastic (rPET) and includes labeling that communicates that the plastic has a slightly darker tint due to its eco-friendly material use. These new condiment squeeze bottles from Stokes Sauces represent the brand's commitment to becoming a “zero to landfill” business by 2021.
