Great to see comments from across the industry from James Piper, Adam Herriott, and Ambarish Mitra.
Happy to comment in this piece about the frustratingly unrecyclable Buzzballz which are taking the alcoholic drinks industry by storm!🍹❌♻️

I’ve seen a growing number of products come on the market which are using these clear plastic containers/cans fused to metal tops for selling aesthetically pleasing drinks such as cocktails, matcha, iced coffee and milkshakes.
