The History of Refillable Bottle Systems in the U.S.
95% of BOTTLES USED TO BE RETURNED FOR REFILL. WE DID IT BEFORE, WE CAN DO IT AGAIN! Refillable bottle systems in the United States may seem like an idea from a brave new, sustainable world, but the practice is actually a blast from the past.In the 1800s, glass bottles were handmade and, therefore, expensive.
