Recycle empty formula cans at HKTVmall O2O shops to redeem e-vouchers and build green habits

HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach - 12 October 2021 - Mead Johnson Nutrition Hong Kong ("Mead Johnson") partners with 24-hour online shopping mall, HKTVmall under Hong Kong Technology Venture Company Limited ("HKTVmall") and the World Green Organisation ("WGO") again to launch the largest-scale "We CAN Protect the Future" Formula Cans Recycling Program in Hong Kong. Following the success of its pilot program launched earlier this year at the 6 collection points at HKTVmall O2O shops, Mead Johnson has upgraded and extended the program coverage to 35 collection points across Hong Kong, and team up with parents to build a cleaner and more sustainable world for our future generations, nurturing their best start in life.

From now until 24 December 2021, citizens can return cleaned formula cans from all brands to any of the 35 designated HKTVmall O2O shops across Hong Kong and redeem an e-voucher (HKTVmall HK$400 Mead Johnson selected products or HK$50 Dettol selected products) for each successful return. ^[1] All collected formula cans will be processed at a local recycling plant and turned into recyclable molten metal. The entire recycling process is supervised by the WGO to ensure all recycled cans will be transformed appropriately into recycled material to reduce environmental burden and promote green economy in Hong Kong.

To encourage active participation in the program and further enhance environmental awareness of the public, Mead Johnson and the WGO will also organise parent-child formula cans upcycling workshops at different shopping malls from October to December 2021.
