Blueberry Pharmacy · Pittsburgh area
A paper prescription tube, designed for pharmacy use
Blueberry Pharmacy's Tully Tube impact estimate is based on its current annual prescription-bottle volume. Parcel Health states that Tully Tube is USP compliant, child-resistant certified, humidity-resistant, and lightproof.
Using a current annual volume of 60,000 bottles, the modeled estimate is 1,237 pounds of plastic displaced, 15,822 kWh saved, and 3 metric tons of CO₂ saved if that volume were packaged in Tully Tube.
These are modeled estimates, not measured total pharmacy emissions. Energy and CO₂ values are separate calculator outputs, and recycling acceptance depends on local programs.
