The humble plastic bottle has never been so much in demand and now with
summer here and an abundance of sporting events, its use is set to soar.
We've been using plastic bottles for over 65 years from
water to soft drinks, shampoo to bleach, olive oil to garden fertiliser, in

Please wash and squash where possible and add your plastic
