FAQ
The name says it all! By Sugarplastic, we mean disposable plastic bottles typically filled with sugary drinks that leave us addicted and craving more.
This is how we save 98% plastic and CO2:
Plastic:
Each waterdrop® blister weighs: 0.4 grams
Each 500ml plastic bottle weighs: 20 grams
20 g - 0.4 g = 19.6 g / 20 g = 98%.
CO2:
CO2 per litre waterdrop®: 0.31 g
CO2 per litre PP bottle: 29 g
29 g - 0.31 g = 28.69 g / 29 g = 98.9%
While some companies earn their sugar-free badge by using palm oil as an alternative, we believe in the natural taste of fruit and plant extracts, enhanced only with a touch of sweetener.
Our blisters are made of polypropylene (PP). Having weighed our options, we decided that PP is the most environmentally conscious option as it is the easiest to recycle, doesn't release toxins, has a relatively low carbon footprint and is safe for human health.
100% yes! Simply bring them to a waterdrop® store near you and you'll get 5 points for each blister.

Our blisters can be recycled along with general plastic waste at any plastic collection bin/point. Alternatively, you can return them to any of our stores for 5 points per blister.

We've tried our best to be plastic-free but this is unfortunately not possible at the moment as the taste and integrity of our products comes first. Having said that, we are constantly working on experimenting with new solutions and hope to be plastic free soon.
As our Microdrinks are free from preservatives, each waterdrop® is carefully sealed with a wafer-thin layer to protect the natural fruit and plant extracts within. This helps us guarantee the integrity and freshness of our product.
