Sustainability
Refresh. Recycle. Renew.
Long before sustainability led the headlines, Coke Consolidated’s Purpose and Values guided its commitment to stewarding environmental resources, focusing on innovation, and acting with courage and conviction. Our Refresh Recycle Renew initiative to promote sustainability includes industry-leading solutions for recycling and reusing our packages, waterway clean-up, community improvement and much more.
We invest heavily in collaborations with our customers and marketing partners to establish, promote, and maximize recycling programs, and to ensure that our recycled plastic and aluminum packages are turned into new bottles and cans.
