Bottles+Idea

I was on sistema today and i found this 700ml Universal bottle [] It looks quite good, i was thinking we could get like a colourless bottle with a green lid and put our logo in the place on the bottle shown? Also they are promotional bottles so i will get a quote from the company and we can get the logo printed at the same time as we order the bottles. But so that we break even, we will have to sell the bottles at quite a high price and then have the refills cheeper.

Alistair talked to his boss at Plastic Box and he gave me the name and number of a company that produces and prints on bottles It will be expensive to set up the machines for the print so we will have to buy a lot of them otherwise it will be very expensive. We will need to buy a huge order at once. The same will go whatever company we use. The company is EPI 0800 448 548, ask for Norm The bottle is called the Hydromax The product code is 2006 However they made produce slightly different bottles, a larger one would be good.
 * Sourcing Bottles:**

Alistair: I will ask about the possibility of sourcing powerade from Coke. Should get a good deal because I know the head of manufacturing at Coke. I really doubt Coke will give us Powerade for free. Remember that the tuck shop will be selling it. Coke already sells lots of powerade to the school so they aren't going to give it away. But we should be able to get a good deal because it is for a cause.
 * Sourcing Powerade**

Does powerade come in a syrup or a powder? I know that all soft drinks come in syrups that you add water to but I'm not sure about powerade.

We have to convince them to buy into this idea. They already sell powerade so they may not want to change. But this will be great for the environment because it will really cut down on the number of bottles we put in land fills
 * Talking to Tuck Shop** ( I meant tuck shop but wrote mungoes)

Also what colour did you want the bottles to be I was thinking green for the enviroment or just colourless?? We could maybe do blue but SKC already has drink bottles and i think these should be more promoting environmental things than SKC??? this is jess- michael, i'll try and get the logos to you tomorrow, or email them if i have to...
 * Design for Bottles**

Alistair: I don't think SKC bottles are the way to go because no one will want to have them.

We would need loads of promotion. have a couple of speakers in senior/junior assemblies?
 * Promotion**

Btw this is Laura :D; um how many bottles are we thinking just so I know for like budgeting etc.??
 * Number of Bottles**

This is Michael Yang. Maybe we should try yr 7 and 8s first. thats about 200 ppl.

Alistair: I think we would need to get about 500, because otherwise they would be really really expensive. We don't have to sell them all at once.


 * Refillable drink bottles at tuck shop
 * a really good idea...

5. Drink Bottle
 * Ohh and if anyone finds some really cheap or even cheep powdered powerade let me know, thanks.
 * btw Georgia said something about that food company today, maybe she has a membership card??
 * K Laura again, well im going to go out this afternoon and go to plastic box and Gilmore's etc to find out prices before i leave for camp but does anyone know where you can get labeling done on bottles?? i know there are like t-shirt printing places but do they do bottle labeling???? and also what do we want printed on the labels just so i can sort out an around about cost, do we want SKC or save the environment or that recycling logo thing????
 * skc maybe? someone could incorporate school logo with recycling.. i know someone who's really good at design who is happy to help out - they could come up with something
 * Yea that sounds good, I went around the shops today and I think i have found a good type of drink bottle from Sistema, we can get the logo printed at the same time. I am going to email the lady to see how much it will cost hopefully she will have replied by the time i get back from Peer Support. I am also going to contact PowerAde and see if they want to donate a couple of bags of PowerAde powder seeing as its for a good cause and everything.

hey guys my bad! i acidentaly cleared the data when i tryed to exit. SOrry


 * too many plastic forks and knifes being used in tukie
 * get eco group to grow veges
 * who would eat veges from tuck?
 * I would be very interested in a garden salad, especially if it was only 2/ 3 dollars. a lot of my friends love the pre salads you purchase at supermarkets however thyre over priced and dont travel well in our school bags!
 * think nando side salads
 * do salads really have anything to do with the environment?
 * agree with above ... they are healthy but not very "environmental" as such ... would it work to get people to return used containers and forks etc. after they'd eaten, instead of throwing them away? maybe we could contact whoever supplies the stuff and start a chain back to them ... it would save them money, surely? I don't know if this is possible ofc but it's just an idea...
