By KSTP
April 21, 2023
Storm Creek’s CEO Teresa Fudenberg and Founder Doug Jackson join the hosts of Minnesota Live to discuss our “bottle to better” story.
Key Takeaways:
- Of the billions of plastic water bottles produced annually, just 11% are recycled.
- Technology in the apparel industry is so advanced that we can make softer materials with recycled plastics than with the virgin plastics we’ve used in the past.
- Because of that, we’ve been able to double our bottle usage.
- Using recycled bottles also means 79% fewer carbon emissions.
- We’re always looking for ways to improve our processes, materials and products.
- 10% of our 2023 Earth Day event profits went to Mississippi Park Connection.
