Hooked On Recycling: Turning Beer & Soda Caps into Fishing Lure Success - Worlds Largest Fishing Contest
For 112 years governments have ignored billions of metal bottle cap being discarded each year. We will recycle them instead of discarding them
(PRWEB) January 6, 2005 -- The Original Bottle Cap Lure Company is situated in the Eastern Townships, Quebec, Canada - recycling bottle caps from participating bars, restaurants, pubs, trade shows and so forth. The help of individuals, college groups and those who have an awareness interest in the recycling aspect make the recycling effort possible.
Although bottle carbonated beverages were already popular by the 1880’s, there was a constant problem in bottling: Most of them were unreliable, they did not seal the beverage sufficiently. There were always leaking problems with the drink.
Many of the stoppers ruined the drink and with the carbonation gas (carbon monoxide) William Painter invented the crown cork in 1891. He had to convince the bottle manufacturers to accept the crown cork design because the bottle needed a specific neck tip with a gripping area for the crown. Nowadays our Crowns are usually made of tinplate, electrolytically lined with tin, or chromium plated metal sheet metal (according to DIN 6099).
The Original Bottle Cap Lure Company became about in 2001. Entrepreneur Norm Price figured a way to recycle the bottle cap, creating employment, and bringing awareness on how many of these bottle caps are discarded in our landfills in North America - billions each year alone.
Statistics Canada “As of March 31,2003, imported beer has captured 12.2% per cent of Canada’s total beer market in terms of value, up from 9.6% the year before,” the agency said. Sales of imported brands increased at more than 10 times the pace of domestic brands. Overall, the country’s 3,225 beer and liquor stores sold nearly $7.9 billion worth of beer in the year, up 6.1 per cent from the previous year and 41.5 percent from a decade earlier. Canada alone neared $8-billion in beer sales in the year 2002-2003. This is only 32 million people. There are 300 million in the USA

The untouched recycling industry of metal bottle caps is huge. In the ever changing revolution of the times, it as been forgotten about the billions of metal bottle caps that has already entered in the landfills. Price is determined to make sure this awareness is applied worldwide. Norm Price turns 10% of recycled bottle caps received into functional fishing lures. The remaining bottle caps are sent to be melted down and re-used in the metal world.
The fishing industry also being huge in the U.S and Canada. The bottle cap lures are currently being endorsed by 3-time Canadian Sport fishing Champion Andy Vander Ploeg.

Sales outlets include: The Outdoor Store, Home Hardware, The Fishing Hole, participating Canadian Tire and participating convenience stores. E-commerce is playing an important role not only in sales but making the awareness known. Recycling has become a way of giving back for Mr. Price.
