Ecologic Sustainable Water Bottle Packaging

 

Jabil Inc. has acquired Ecologic Brands, and we’re so excited for the future of sustainable packaging on this incredible new path. Jabil has an unmatched breadth and depth of end-market experience, technical and design capabilities, manufacturing know-how, supply chain insights and global product management expertise. Driven by a common purpose, Jabil and Ecologic Brands are committed to making a positive impact on the local community and environment. 

While our team and operations will join Jabil, we will continue to utilize the Ecologic name as our sustainable packaging product platform. Ecologic’s Manteca, California-based operation will join the Jabil Packaging Solutions division.

“I am so proud that our paper bottle was the world’s first breakthrough technology that helps solve the growing environmental challenges caused by plastic,” Julie Corbett, founder and CEO of Ecologic Brands, said. “Our pioneering efforts created and validated market opportunity, and now, Jabil provides the ideal mix of global footprint, manufacturing excellence and a customer-first culture to fully pursue our vision of leadership.”

In Ecologic, Jabil Packaging Solutions gains a commercially mature paper bottle solution enabled by deep material expertise and innovative manufacturing processes. Major CPG brands including L’Oréal and Seventh Generation rely on Ecologic’s eco.bottle® to significantly reduce plastic packaging and advance their sustainability goals.

“Ecologic and L’Oreal broke new ground when we incubated the world’s first shower-safe paper bottle for the Seed Phytonutrients project,” Shane Wolf, president of American Professional Brands and L’Oréal Professional Products Division, said. “Jabil is synonymous with innovation, engineering, automation and scale, so we can only imagine the solutions that will emerge through its union with Ecologic Brands. The possibilities and accessibility for sustainable packaging options are now limitless.”

Now more than ever, Ecologic Brands has the power to create a more sustainable world through better packaging choices. By choosing us, our partners get an innovative green packaging solution. Consumers get a durable, unique bottle while doing good. 

“Ecologic has been a great partner over the past decade in helping us reimagine the laundry bottle and we’re thrilled to see the acquisition by Jabil,” Joey Bergstein, CEO of Seventh Generation, said. “The world needs solutions at scale that reduce plastic waste and improve circularity. Jabil’s global scale and deep engineering expertise will propel Ecologic’s sustainable packaging solutions to a global footprint, in every category and format type. It’s truly a win for customers, the planet and the industry.”
