I have managed to mock my bottles up to show what they would look like, I am really pleased with them and think they look very contemporary. Through research I have been looking at plastics which are more sustainable than the PET recyclable plastics which are currently in use. I came across bioplastics and biodegradable plastics, I discovered that bioplastics actually cause problems when degrading as they give off toxic gases into the atmosphere, the most sustainable out of the two is the biodegradable plastics, they just degrade into the environment naturally due to an additive which is added to the plastic. The reason I wanted to use this plastic instead of recyclabe plastics is because not everyone actually recycles there for most of the plastics just end up on landfills anyway.
