POCARI SWEAT
Q
The amount of POCARI SWEAT in the plastic bottle seems to be decreasing. Why is that?
A
The top three centimeters of the plastic bottle* is filled with nitrogen gas. As part of efforts to make our plastic bottles lighter and help protect the environment, POCARI SWEAT is bottled using a positive-pressure aseptic filling method. Since the plastic of the bottle is now thinner, nitrogen gas is injected before capping, creating positive (outward) pressure inside the container in order to strengthen it. So, even if the bottle isn't filled right up to the cap, giving the appearance that there is not as much beverage in the bottle compared to other drinks, rest assured that it contains the correct amount of POCARI SWEAT. Since plastic bottles filled in this way are more environmentally friendly, we call them "Eco Bottles."
