The Coca-Cola Company® takes product safety very seriously and is dedicated to meeting, and in most cases exceeding, government-set regulatory product quality standards. After our water goes through the reverse osmosis process to remove impurities, DASANI® adds a variety of minerals, including salt, to create the crisp fresh tatse you know and love although we are unable to disclose the exact quantities of minerals added to our water, we can tell you that the amounts of these minerals (including salt) are so miniscule that the US Food and Drug Administration considers them negligible or ‘dietarily insignificant’.

DASANI® will hold its crisp, fresh taste for up to 12 months. After that, it’s best to recycle the old one and start with a fresh, new bottle.

Purified water is water that has been filtered through reverse osmosis or other suitable methods to render it purified. Spring water is water from an underground source. Both are filtered for impurities.

To create DASANI® water, we start with the local water supply, which is then filtered for purity using a state-of-the-art process called reverse osmosis. Afterwards, we add a special blend of minerals for that pure, crisp, fresh taste.

Is my DASANI® bottle recyclable?

The DASANI® bottle is 100% recyclable. In fact, during the initial design process we worked cosely with recyclers to optimize every aspect of the DASANI® package for ideal recycling – including the cap, label, inks, and glues .

What is PlantBottle®?

DASANI® is taking steps to reduce its impact on the planet with our innovative bottle made from up to 30% plants. PlantBottle® packaging is up to 30% sourced from sugarcane by-products from Brazil. Brazilian sugarcane is considered to be an ‘Advanced Renewable Fuel’ by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and is the only first generation biofuel widely recognized by leaders globally for its unique performance. Using up to 30% plant-based materials reduced our reliance on non-renewable resources, lowering our carbon footprint on the planet, which are all great for the environment.

Is PlantBottle biodegradable?

PlantBottle® is recyclable, not biodegradable. We believe that one use is simply. Not enough. PlantBottle® packaging can be recycled multiple times in today’s recycling streams, thereby reclaiming all of the energy and materials that went into the creation of the bottle.

What is The Coca-Cola Company doing to minimize waste from product packaging and avoid placement in landfills?

We know the packaging that we place in the market has the potential to become waste and that is why we are working to support the recycling and reuse of our bottles and cans in the best way possible. To us, waste prevention extends beyond simply reducing packaging material. We also focus on optimizing packaging efficiency; increasing renewable material use; recovering packages for reuse; and increasing recycled material use
