JUST Water, a new 100% spring water from JUST™, has launched in Tetra Pak’s Tetra Top® paper-based bottle. This marks the U.S. launch of this contemporary, one-step open package that offers a new way for brands to deliver grab-and-go beverages to forward-thinking consumers. Tetra Top is a departure from traditional beverage packaging with its clean, modern look, bottle-shaped design and recyclable packaging made primarily from paper, a renewable resource.
“With focus on environmental and social stewardship, JUST Water offers consumers a different type of packaged water that feels as good as it tastes,” said Grace Jeon, CEO of JUST™. “Tetra Top aligns with our brand ethos. The carton delivers a sleek, sustainable package that not only protects our great water but also is compelling to our consumers.”
JUST™ selected Tetra Top because of the carton’s low carbon footprint and a manufacturing process that conserves energy and water. Moreover, the carton has post-recyclable use as paper products and green building materials.
