Firstly the plastic bottles get sorted so that the leftover liquid inside the bottle can be drained then they get boxed up and get sent to china.


Secondly the bottles get sent over to china where they then do more work to the bottles they sort the bottles into different piles so clear bottles will go into a pile and blue bottles will go into a pile. The clear plastic is used for white clothing and can be dyed.


Thirdly the plastic goes into the baths so that a worker can get rid of the colour full lids. There is also a separate bath for the sticker but the workers have to be careful around it because its corrosive caustic soda which is very bad for the skin but really go for really good for removing labels.
