Soy sauce is a traditional Japanese seasoning that in the past would be contained in such ceramics as jars, pots and bottles, and wooden barrels. Later glass bottles were used starting in the Meiji period, and now polyethylene terephthalate (commonly abbreviated PET) bottles are mainly used for soy sauce.

PET bottles feature strong insulation against oxygen and resistance to shock (difficult to damage), as well as high transparency. Kikkoman began using PET bottles as soy sauce containers in February 1977, becoming the first to adopt PET containers in the domestic food industry.

Even after adopting the use of PET bottles, and in cooperation with a resin molding manufacturer, Kikkoman has endeavored to enhance their properties, such as thinner bottles (reduced amount of materials to be used and lighter weight), strength, quality-retention capacity, and recyclability.
For example, in FY2015, Kikkoman succeeded to a 5.6% reduction in the weight of 1.8-L Handy PET bottles for Kikkoman Soy Sauce and Kikkoman Light-Colored (Usukuchi) Soy Sauce, by making thinner bottles without decreasing their strength. And in FY2016 Kikkoman succeeded in a 12.5% reduction in the weight of 500-ml bottles for Kikkoman Less Sodium Soy Sauce.

PET bottles discarded after use in homes are generally collected by local municipalities, sold to recycle dealers, and then processed into PET-resin pellets (or flakes) that are reused as raw materials for various products including containers (such as egg cartons), clothing, and stationery.
Kikkoman is also focused on ways to make caps and product labels easy to remove using non-PET-materials for PET bottles to facilitate the recovery of resources.

As part of these efforts, in FY2000 Kikkoman developed and introduced the Easy-to-Remove Cap (Eco-Cap®) (Trademark Registration No. 4319133), an improved cap with an easier-to-remove mouth plug, followed by its continuous pursuit of “easier-to-use” and “easier-to-remove”functionalities that brought about improvements in cap shape and specifications in FY2003 and FY2009. In FY2001, the product labels were improved by using glue to facilitate easier removal by hand.

Activities on containers and packaging are compiled in the Kikkoman Group Environmental Preservation Activities Case Book.
