Denise Behrens, corporate communication manager for PenBev, said: “We are proud of the learners for really involving their families in this initiative which has shown the true value of recycling. Environmental initiatives, especially recycling, are important for us at Peninsula Beverages because many of our packages are recyclable and can be used to create income.”
