BioDrup drinking cups
The Biobased water bottle from Retulp is an environmentally friendly drinking bottle. With the introduction of the new Bio Drup water bottle, you are not only buying a beautifully shaped water bottle, but also contributing to a better world. It is a high quality drinking bottle with a long lifespan and made from raw materials from sugar cane. This therefore ensures a significant reduction in CO2 emissions compared to a standard fossil resource.
1% to Unicef Plastic Bricks
Plastic Bricks is a sustainable project that recycles plastic into building blocks for classrooms in Ivory Coast. The West African country has a huge waste problem. Only five percent of the plastic is sold for recycling, mainly by women. Unfortunately, this earns them far too little. At the same time, 1.6 million children and young people in Ivory Coast do not attend school. UNICEF's factory buys the plastic waste directly from the women and processes it into building blocks. Through collaborations with partners and sustainable solutions, UNICEF offers women and youth in Côte d'Ivoire hope for the future. UNICEF trains mothers and youth in collecting, safely storing and processing plastic waste. At the recycling factory, they buy the plastic waste directly from the women for a fair price. The factory processes the plastic waste into building blocks, which are used to build new classrooms.

What are organic water bottles made of?
The biobased water bottle is manufactured in an environmentally friendly way and is made of at least 87% cane sugar and up to 13% regular PE plastic, which is BPA free. Less scarce fossil resources are used in production, but rather the renewable raw material sugarcane. When sugarcane grows, it absorbs a lot of CO2 and reduces greenhouse gas emissions. All processed materials are tested for food safety and comply with the latest European laws and regulations. They are also fully recyclable.
Are bio-based bottles the best solution for the environment?
No bio-based bottles are hardly better for the environment than regular plastic bottles. The best and easiest way to do something for the environment is to drink tap water from a refillable drinking bottle. Prevention is far better than recycling or bio materials. The mission of Retulp is to promote recycling and not to promote use of bio materials. Although, of course, bio materials do have their side benefits.
Where are the organic water bottles made?
The raw material comes from Brazil. The organic water bottles are produced in the Netherlands.
Why aren't all bottles made of bio plastics?
There is much confusion about biodegradable plastics and bioplastics. For example, Coca Cola's Plant Bottle is presented as sustainable packaging because it is 30 percent made from natural raw materials (sugar cane). Production requires less energy, but the bottles themselves are not biodegradable. Another objection is that the raw materials for bioplastics can also be used as food and the establishment of plantations can contribute to further deforestation. So for disposable packaging, bioplastics are hardly a solution. For reusable Retulp bio water bottles, it is an excellent raw material with a slightly lower environmental impact as regular plastic. If you use the bio water bottles instead of disposable PET bottles with water, you are really doing something good for the environment. In addition, the big advantage of bio water bottles is that they do not taste or smell like plastic.
Are the bottles/bidons suitable for other beverages besides water?
The bottles/bidons can be filled with: (cold) drinks such as fruit juices, thick juice, milk, yogurt drink, ice cubes (then it stays nice and cool) or pieces of fruit (such as a slice of lime). With dairy products, however, it is important to clean the bottle well afterwards, especially the cap. We do not recommend putting carbonated beverages in your bottle because a lot of shaking or movement can increase the pressure. In addition, with water bottles, the inside can become discolored from beverages other than water.
What is the best way to keep my bottle/bidon clean?
Before first use: rinse the bottle/bidon and cap(s) well in soapy water. Then wash the bottle/bidon by hand. The large opening allows easy access with a dishwashing brush. Because of the rounded corners, no dirt is left behind.
Some bottles are dishwasher safe. The label on the bottle will tell you if it can be put in the dishwasher. Note: Due to the coating, this can only be done at low temperatures. To keep the bottle beautiful for as long as possible, Retulp recommends washing the bottles by hand as much as possible. The cap is not dishwasher safe.
