HOUSTON — Labrada Nutrition’s Lean Body protein shakes are now available in recyclable plastic bottles.
“Fueled by increasing demand from our convenience-store customers, we are pleased to announce the introduction of our Lean Body protein shakes in recyclable plastic bottles,” founder and CEO Lee Labrada said. “Same delicious taste, 40 grams of protein and zero sugar.
The drinks are available in six flavors: chocolate, vanilla, salted caramel, cookies and cream, strawberry and the new chocolate peanut butter.
“One of our biggest goals with this addition was to remain true to our eco-friendly mission,” the Houston-based company said. “Lean Body believes in protecting our environment by using sustainable packaging when possible. That’s why Lean Body ready-to-drink plastic bottles are recyclable.”
The bottles are made of about 98% high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic, the most environmentally stable of all plastics, according to Labrada Nutrition. Products made from Type 2 HDPE recycled plastic are considered eco-friendly because they are made mainly from post-consumer products and are recyclable.
