Environment

PBL is committed to implementing environmentally friendly strategies and initiatives. The great majority of our beer products and a significant proportion of our sparkling drinks products are marketed in returnable glass packaging.

We continue to invest heavily in this packaging medium and to configure our operations to maximise usage, to minimise wastage and to limit our environmental footprint.
We continue to work as a member of the Mauritian Bottlers Association to develop the collection and recycling if PET bottles, as used for Sparkling drink. In recent months, the percentage of PET bottles recycled has exceeded 30% of total industry production and we are developing plans to drive this further.

PBL also contributes in glass recycling. This activity is being carried out by the (Mauritius) Glass Gallery Ltd where waste glass is transformed into 200 decorative and practical products.

PBL has also invested in energy efficient technologies in its manufacturing plants to optimise on energy use and has replaced the majority of its fleet force fleet by energy efficient, low emission vehicles.
