JEPLAN, INC. (Representative Director, President, and Chief Executive Officer Masaki Masakio; hereinafter "JEPLAN") has launched the "Bee Mark Sticker Project" to raise awareness of the bottle-to-bottle PET bottle campaign among all people and organizations.
(Project URL: https://bringbottle.jeplan.co.jp/)
In conjunction with the launch of the project, during the period from February to the end of June 2012, JEPLAN will conduct a campaign to offer "Re-Sai-Koro" an environmental learning material that enables people to learn about PET bottle recycling in a fun backgammon format, to project participants who affix the Bee Mark Sticker provided by to PET bottle collection boxes around them during the period from February to the end of June 2012 by drawing lots. The campaign will also be implemented. Not only individual participants, but also schools, companies, local governments, and other organizations can participate in the project, which aims to promote bottle-to-bottle recycling in society at large.
■ Background of Bee Mark Sticker Utilization
JEPLAN has been using the bee mark as a symbol of the resource cycle, which is associated with the honeybee flying around to collect honey from various places. This project was launched with the aim of improving the global resource life cycle (resource recycling) by promoting bottle-to-bottle use.
 |
Japan's PET bottle recycling rate is 86.9%, and the collection rate is 94.4% (FY2023 results *PET Bottle Recycling Promotion Council), which is extremely high, and Japan is considered an advanced PET bottle recycling country. However, collected PET bottles are not necessarily recycled into new PET bottles. Even if they are transformed into new products, if they are not recyclable again, the earth will run out of resources someday. |
|
JEPLAN has been promoting bottle-to-bottle recycling with its unique chemical recycling technology in cooperation with various regions throughout Japan, aiming for a society where things that have reached the end of their useful lives do not become garbage but are recycled as valuable resources. |

■ About the Bee Mark Sticker Project
Anyone who feels that bottle-to-bottle is necessary for the future of the earth and agrees to participate in the Bee Mark Sticker Project is welcome to join the project by placing the Bee Mark Sticker provided by JEPLAN on the surrounding PET bottle collection boxes.
