Plastic is ubiquitous in today's society. A great amount of plastic is specifically flowing into the packaging industry. However, economic and technical limitations cause most plastic packaging to have a linear and unsustainable life, often characterized by a very short use phase.

Consumers simply combine regular tap water with the concentrate in a reusable SC Johnson trigger bottle, which delivers more than 10,000 sprays and can be refilled dozens of times. The reusable bottle extends the lifespan of the plastic further than a one-time-use product, keeping additional plastic waste out of landfills. 

The move could reduce the plastic use associated with the popular household cleaners by nearly 80 percent since people would reuse bottles instead of purchasing new ones.
