A better end-of-life story for plastic
BioBottles® began with a simple question: why should a bottle that serves us for months pollute the planet for centuries?
Plastic outlives its purpose
Every year, the world produces more than 200 billion plastic bottles. Most of them are used for a few months and then persist in landfills, waterways, and oceans for hundreds of years — slowly fragmenting into microplastics that contaminate the food chain and the environment we all share.
We believe packaging should serve people without leaving that kind of legacy behind.
Founded in 2020 with one mission
BioBottles® was founded in 2020 by James Van Brocklin and Adam Ackerman, two entrepreneurs who could not accept that plastic pollution was simply the cost of modern packaging. Their mission: develop technologies that turn ordinary plastic products into earth-friendly materials at the end of their useful life.
What followed was years of research and development — hundreds of prototypes, rounds of independent testing, and manufacturing iterations — before the first BioBottles® were ready for the shelf. The result is a bottle that performs exactly like the packaging brands rely on today, with an end-of-life story the planet can live with.
