REFILLABLE CONTAINER WITH A ZERO WASTE DISPENSING SYSTEM
The refillable container includes a semi-rigid outer shell that defines an interior void and includes a detachable pour spout. The container may be refilled with a plurality of collapsible inserts. Instead of rigid beverage bottles and other flowable substance containers, the collapsible inserts may be transported from a manufacturing to a filling facility in a collapsed state, and do not have to include semi-rigid materials thereby minimizing disposal requirements. A tilt-pouring embodiment, a helical track embodiment, a helical axle embodiment and an air-bladder embodiment of refillable containers having common components permit dispensing of products from the containers to achieve virtually zero waste of the products.
