About Coca-cola

The Coca‑Cola Company is a global nonalcoholic beverage manufacturer headquartered in Atlanta, USA. It develops beverage concentrates and syrups and, together with a network of independent and company‑owned bottlers, produces, packages, and distributes soft drinks, waters, juices, sports and energy drinks, coffees, and teas in more than 200 countries and territories.

Relevant to the chemical and materials sectors, Coca‑Cola is a major purchaser of food‑grade carbon dioxide, sweeteners, acidulants (such as phosphoric and citric acids), flavorings, and a wide range of packaging materials. Its packaging portfolio includes PET bottles (with growing use of recycled PET), HDPE/PP closures and labels, aluminum cans, and glass. The company works with resin producers, recyclers, and technology providers on lightweighting, barrier performance, recycling processes, and circularity, and supports collection and deposit‑return systems to secure food‑grade rPET. Coca‑Cola also invests in R&D for formulation and packaging, including next‑generation sweeteners and lower‑carbon packaging solutions, and pursues water stewardship and greenhouse‑gas reduction across its supply chain.
