Recycled milk jug, for ethical coffee only?
Tuesday, October 20th, 2009 by NigelTurns out one of the recycled Milk Bottle Milk Jugs that we added last week was a little controversial.
Recycled from milk bottles, the designs on the milk jugs - including Typhoo, Kelloggs and Nescafe - are original adverts that the dairies put on the side of the milk bottles in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s. We think they’re a great example of retro design, but as one of our Facebook fans points out, Nescafe may not have been the best choice, as, she says:
These companies are famous for exploiting workers (and in the case of Nestle, exploiting consumers) in poor countries.
So we’ve taken that one down.
Hope you like the other ones.
