Aquafina
Reverse Vending Machine
Our Challenge
Major beverage brands faced criticism for not addressing plastic pollution. PepsiCo, a prominent brand in Vietnam, is taking the lead to combat the issue by removing single-use plastic bottles from the streets, amidst growing concerns about rivers and canals being polluted by such bottles worldwide.

Our Idea
Unigons launched Vietnam’s first Reversed Vending Machine during the 2022 Vietnam International Fashion Week. Influencers promoted responsible plastic bottle disposal by using the machine. Over the next 12 months, 30 more machines were installed in key malls, collecting over 1 million bottles. The machine not only collected bottles but also compacted them for efficient transport. Users earned reward points for disposal, encouraging sustainability.
