Ice River Springs is the first bottled water company in North America to manufacture its own resin. Since November 2010, we have been producing recycled resin from baled post-consumer plastic purchased from Municipal Recycling Centres, thereby significantly reducing our carbon footprint.
Our trucks deliver our great-tasting water in 100% recycled PET to the store, and return to our plant in Shelburne, Ontario with plastic to be recycled, closing the loop.
Our goal is to eliminate our dependency upon foreign virgin PET resin by self-manufacturing recycled resin.
