Did you know Tide bottles are made from used Tide bottles (and other packaging)? P&G has led efforts in the US to recycle colored plastics and developed a special three-layer bottle to deliver recycled content in their orange Tide bottles.

Now, they are taking this commitment to the planet even further. Click here to learn more.
