Working hand in hand with Cleantech Pvt Ltd Recyclers, Varun Beverages Lanka supports capacity-building through targeted investment in machinery and infrastructure, enabling more efficient collection, sorting and processing of post-consumer PET bottles into high-quality recyclate.
In parallel, the company collaborates closely with Neptune Recyclers, marking the beginning of VBLL’s recycling journey through the establishment of a new Material Recovery Facility (MRF).

Together, these partnerships reaffirm Varun Beverages Lanka’s commitment to responsible plastic stewardship, reinforce its regional objectives on PET recovery and recycled content in beverage packaging, and position all three organizations as key private-sector contributors to Sri Lanka’s broader sustainability and Extended Producer Responsibility goals.
