SodaStream
SodaStream is Top of the Pops
SodaStream, the world’s favourite soft drink maker which invaded kitchens across the globe in the 70’s and 80’s, is back in town and looks better than ever.
Many Australians grew up with a SodaStream and had hours of fun turning regular tap water into fabulous fizzy drinks. If you were one of these lucky people, did you know that you were an environmental pioneer even back then? Before we’d even heard about global warming and what it’s doing to our planet, SodaStream was saving the world one fizzy drink at a time.
So, how does SodaStream help our environment?
- SodaStream provides reusable BPA-free bottles…so no empty bottles to recycle or throw away
- Each BPA-free bottle lasts for three years and approx. 1,000 uses
- SodaStream doesn’t use batteries or electricity, just reusable CO2 canisters
- By using SodaStream, you help reduce the pollution created by transportation and disposal of millions of plastic bottles each year
- One CO2 canister fizzes 60 litres of your favourite soft drink…which means a lot less plastic bottles going in to Australia’s land fill
- In 2010, it is estimated that by using SodaStream, Australians reduced landfill by approx. 20 million one litre plastic bottles
- The SodaStream ‘Crystal’ was awarded the prestigious 2010 Green GOOD DESIGN™ Award. The Crystal was chosen as an outstanding example of green design by a panel of global design leaders, from among thousands of submissions in over 45 countries.
Apart from all the great environmental benefits, Australians will also love SodaStream because:
- It’s so easy….just fizz up your tap water, add your flavour and enjoy
- It’s a healthier option! SodaStream syrups contain less sugar than shop bought soft drinks
- It’s convenient – keep syrups in your cupboard so your family can enjoy their favourite fizzy drinks, any time without the hassle of driving to the supermarket
- No carrying or storage of large heavy bottles
- Each litre of standard SodaStream soft drink costs approx. $0.64…making it ideal for families on a budget
- One bottle of SodaStream syrup makes the equivalent of 33 cans of soft drink
- You make the drinks yourself so you’re in control of the family’s intake
