At Movie Makers, we're always looking for ways to improve our sustainability efforts and reduce our environmental footprint. As part of our ongoing commitment to being more eco-friendly, we are excited to announce a change in our office: we’re swapping out the use of plastic water bottles to reusable Movie Makers stainless steel water bottles! 

Why Make the Switch? 

Plastic waste is one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time. According to recent statistics, over 8 million metric tons of plastic enter our oceans every year. Traditional single-use plastic bottles contribute significantly to this pollution. These bottles are often used once and discarded, taking hundreds of years to break down in landfills, where they can leach harmful chemicals into the soil and water. 

By Movie Makers transitioning to reusable bottles, we are taking a meaningful step toward reducing our plastic waste and supporting a cleaner, greener planet. 

Do you know what other benefits there are to using Stainless Steel Water Bottles? 

1. Built to last - unlike plastic bottles that can crack, warp, or break down over time, stainless steel is incredibly strong and resistant to wear so there’s no need to throw away or replace. 
2. Healthier Alternative – did you know that  plastic bottles can sometimes leak harmful chemicals like BPA (bisphenol A) into the water, especially when exposed to heat or sunlight? Providing reusable stainless-steel bottles is a safer, healthier option for staying hydrated throughout the day. 
3. Environmentally Friendly – not only is there a reduction in plastic waste but Stainless steel is also 100% recyclable, making it an excellent choice for reducing our environmental impact. 
4. A Stylish, Modern Look - let’s face it: stainless steel water bottles look sleek and professional, team that with the Movie Maker’s logo, you can’t go wrong! Carry one of these bad boys around with you not only will you look good...you’ll stay hydrated in style! 

Our Commitment to Sustainability 

At Movie Makers, sustainability isn't just a buzzword—it’s an integral part of who we are. By making small changes, we aim to create a ripple effect of positive change in our office and beyond. 

In addition to this change, we continue to explore other ways to reduce our environmental impact, from minimizing paper waste to promoting energy efficiency across our operations. Every action, no matter how small, contributes to the bigger picture of preserving our planet for future generations.

We’re excited to share our new stainless-steel bottles with the entire team. Each employee has been provided with a bottle to use throughout the workday. We have water stations dotted throughout our space for easy refill.
