According to a statement issued by the European Commission on Thursday, companies intend to replace statements on bottle labels such as \u201cThis bottle is made from 100% recycled plastic\u201d with phrases such as \u201cThis bottle is 100% recycled. Excluding the cap and label\u201d. Labels such as \u201cRecycle me again\u201d are also to be changed to \u201cRecycle me\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The European Commission and national authorities reviewed the revised claims and found them to be in line with EU consumer protection law. According to the Commission, Coca-Cola and Nestl\u00e9 have already implemented some of their commitments, such as recycling pledges on digital channels.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">+ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swissinfo.ch\/eng\/business\/nestl%C3%A9-shamed-as-third-largest-plastic-polluter\/48058444\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nestl\u00e9 shamed as third-largest plastic polluter<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The case was triggered in 2023 by a warning from the European consumer organisation BEUC, which targeted misleading recycling claims on plastic bottles.
