Sustainability
REDUCE
Our reusable products give guests a simple way to cut single use waste while supporting cleaner communities. Every set of cups contributes to ongoing cleanup efforts that strengthen your program.
REUSE
You can inspire long term reuse by giving guests convenient ways to bring their cups back again. Local partners can support refill incentives that keep containers in circulation and reduce overall waste.
RECYCLE
Our Run It Back cups use post consumer recycled polypropylene to support cost effective recycling. Choosing common materials streamlines processing and strengthens the results of your program.
REFILL
Refill friendly dispensing systems keep service fast while helping guests reuse their cups throughout the event. This approach supports sustainability goals and maintains the convenience your fans expect.
Our Commitment to Sustainable Plastic Containers
Most beverages in stadiums and venues are still sold in single-use bottles or cans, creating unnecessary waste and missed sustainability opportunities. Churchill Container’s Run It Back program is a comprehensive sustainability platform designed to help venues reduce single-use plastics, manage reuse responsibly, and support recycling from start to finish. Rather than offering a single product, Run It Back brings together all of Churchill Container’s sustainability options into one clear, flexible program that can be tailored to each venue’s operations, goals, and fan experience.
Run It Back is an all-encompassing sustainability program that includes:
- Durable, refillable cups made from 100% recycled material
- Reuse and return strategies that support multiple uses across events or seasons
- Dishwasher-safe products designed for long-term durability
- End-of-life recycling solutions to keep materials out of landfills
- Sustainability partnerships and plastic offset initiatives that extend impact beyond the venue
Run It Back creates measurable results on and off site. For every 20 cups used, one pound of plastic waste is removed from oceans through plastic offset programs. By combining reuse, recycling, and responsible material sourcing into one program, Run It Back helps venues reduce waste, simplify sustainability efforts, and give fans an easy way to participate with every refill. It is more than a cup. It is a complete sustainability solution built to support cleaner operations, stronger environmental commitments, and a better event experience.
