This Holiday Season, Let’s Trade 300 Plastic Bottles for an Ocean’s Smile

Our choices change the future.

Every year, over 60 million trees are cut down globally for Christmas. Meanwhile, a typical artificial Christmas tree generates approximately 40kg of carbon emissions—equivalent to driving an average car for about 160 kilometers. While they briefly bring joy to households, they often end up becoming a burden on our oceans.

In contrast, this glowing Christmas tree is reborn from 300+ discarded plastic bottles. Waste can also possess beauty and warmth. Every bottle was once a potential threat to the sea; now, they serve as ambassadors for environmental protection.

No deforestation, less waste—let’s give the Earth a lighter holiday. This "upcycling" creativity is spreading worldwide, as festive installations made from recycled or repurposed plastic become new symbols of the season.

In the Philippines, fishermen collect discarded nets and bottles from the sea to craft trees and decorations. In Sweden, a company has developed trees made entirely of biodegradable materials that decompose in the soil after the holidays.

True environmentalism isn't about giving up celebrations; it’s about reimagining how we celebrate. A tree made from 300+ plastic bottles not only prevents potential plastic pollution but also promotes the concept of a circular economy to the public.

For families, there are many ways to celebrate sustainably: stack old books into a tree shape, use branches and pinecones for decor, or project a tree onto a wall using LED lights. Furthermore, we can reduce packaging waste. Holiday packaging waste increases by about 25% globally each year, with much of the plastic ending up in the ocean. Opt for simple packaging or use cloth gift bags instead of paper wraps.

This plastic bottle Christmas tree will be carefully disassembled after the holidays, and those 300+ bottles will be recycled once again, ready for their next rebirth.

Every plastic bottle kept out of the ocean is a Christmas gift to marine life. Our holiday joy does not have to be the Earth's burden.

Topcentral® TC-Rester® rPET

TC-Rester® rPET is derived from post-consumer recycled water bottles. Through pretreatment, we obtain rPET flakes or modified rPET pellets via extrusion granulation. Based on different recycling sources and quality grades, we utilize classified screening, innovative technical breakthroughs, performance optimization, and high-quality automated production. We provide customers with extrusion-grade, cast film-grade, biaxially oriented film-grade, blow molding-grade, and injection molding-grade rPET pellets, covering low-to-medium, medium, and high viscosity ranges.

Our products comply with RoHS/REACH standards and are certified by GRS, UL2809, and SCS Global, with select products passing FDA testing. Additionally, we offer the Oceancycle® series, featuring Ocean-Bound Plastic (OBP) and Ocean Plastic (OP) recovery. We meet diverse application needs across industries and provide comprehensive, customized innovative system solutions based on specific requirements.
