【CTS News Interview】 Transforming Plastic Waste into Circular Solutions
As the global momentum toward sustainability accelerates, Living Fountain is committed to the principles of UN SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production, transforming plastic waste into circular resources. By advancing PCR (Post-Consumer Recycled) material technologies, the company has successfully developed the world’s first PCR pump, while continuing to achieve breakthroughs in trigger sprayers and reusable tableware—demonstrating strong capabilities in MIT (Made in Taiwan) green manufacturing.
Engineering Challenge: Precision Across 11 Components
Commonly used in personal care products, a pump may appear simple externally but consists of 11 intricate components, including piston assemblies, closures, and dip tubes. Each component undergoes rigorous and repeated testing to ensure optimal functionality and airtight performance.
Living Fountain successfully overcame the inherent challenges of PCR materials—such as reduced toughness and material instability. The final product achieves over 80% recycled content, reducing carbon emissions by 66% compared to virgin plastic.
As of June 2025, the company has produced over 3.1 million recycled pumps, contributing to a carbon reduction of 106,000 kg.

In-house Development of PCR Trigger Sprayers
Beyond pumps, Living Fountain has also developed PCR trigger sprayers with over 80% recycled content, making them among the highest PCR-content sprayers currently available on the market. This innovation positions the company ahead of global competitors and provides more sustainable packaging solutions for home care and personal care brands.
“Plastic should not be a burden on the environment, but a resource in continuous circulation.”
Living Fountain remains dedicated to driving innovation, helping businesses reduce carbon emissions at the source, and delivering comprehensive green solutions—from personal care and home cleaning to food packaging. We welcome like-minded partners to collaborate and work together toward a more sustainable future.
