Are their green claims just 'greenwash'? Im thinking disposable CO2 canisters can't be that good for the environment either?

- dlwh 14y agoThey're not disposable. They reuse them. You get a rather sizable discount (50%) for giving an empty one back when you get a new one.
- tmzt 14y agoI wonder why they don't market that more widely, I was looking for refills around a display and couldn't find them. There was nothing about where or how to get a canister that I could find on the outer packaging.
- jmccree 14y agoThe CO2 canisters are refilled/exchanged and not disposable. It certainly passes the smell test to me and they have a ton of info on their carbon footprint on the website. For me, I love the convenience of not having to go buy bottles of soda water and then recycling them after. You just fill the sodastream bottle, carbonate, drink, rinse, repeat.
- jlgreco 14y agoEven if the canisters were disposed instead of reused, recycling metals is ridiculously efficient.
- jbrowning 14y agoNot only are the canisters "not disposable", they also are not the property of the purchaser of a SodaStream device. Instead, canisters remain property of SodaStream and are licensed to the purchaser. http://www.sodastreamusa.com/Assets/ULC.jpg http://www.sodastreamusa.com/Assets/ULC.jpg
