Coca‑Cola Europacific Aboitiz Philippines (CCEAP) has teamed up with the Union of Local Authorities of the Philippines (ULAP) and the Provincial Government of Quirino to scale up the reach of the Tapon to Ipon program to more local government units (LGUs) nationwide.
This partnership aims to strengthen collaboration with LGUs and help enhance their PET collection and recycling systems, including support for solid waste management equipment such as baling machines. CCEAP also formalized its partnership with the Province of Quirino as ULAP’s first LGU member to officially join and activate the initiative.
The flagship Tapon to Ipon program of the Coca‑Cola system in the Philippines works to accelerate PET bottle recovery—of any brand—and strengthen recycling efforts across partner communities. Together with ULAP and the Province of Quirino, CCEAP is helping build more accessible, community‑driven, and impactful solid waste solutions in more areas across the country.
