There are 150 million plastic water bottles sold each day.

Only 25% are recycled. The rest ends up as litter or landfill.

Plastic bottle waste is increasing at an alarming rate:

it tripled since 1995.

The water we don’t need. Non-carbonated bottled water is the fastest growing segment of the U.S. beverage market.

An estimated 25 percent doesn’t even come from any well or source, but from municipal water supplies.

Deadly plastic. Marine trash, mainly plastic, is killing more than a million seabirds and 100.000 mammals and sea turtles each year according to the United Nations.

Plastic bottle tops are often found in the stomachs of dead sea lions, dolphins, sea turtles and others.

It takes so much oil to produce a water bottle.And four times as much water as it contains.

Oil that has to be extracted, shipped by tankers, refined, transported again and so on…

Bottled water is shipped all over the world. From Italy to the U.S., from France to Canada.Nearly a quarter of all bottled water crosses national borders to reach consumers.

To transport the water there is weekly needed an equivalent of 37.800 trucks and that is only for the U.S.

Not plastic, but stainless steel. Personal. Washable. Responsible. Now health and environmentally conscious people have an alternative for plastic.

Fresh thinking.Public tap water is healthy, safe and monitored. It’s fresh, compared to bottled water (that was stored) in warehouses, trucks and stores.

Sustainable thinking, on everybody’s desk. The stainless steel fresh water container that lasts a lifetime.

It’s simply brilliant.

Most adults lose about 10 cups of water every day through normal body functions incl. perspiration and breathing. To keep our bodies working properly, we need to replace the water that we lose.

Refill your plastic bottle?Better not!

Refill your plastic bottle? Better not. Bacteria grow easily on its mouth and the only way to prevent this is by cleaning the bottle with hot soapy water and dry thoroughly between uses. Ever seen anyone doing this? Our stainless steel bottles are machine washable.

Make it your battle. And your bottle. More and more companies are joining the battle. It’s an easy step saving the environment and lots of money at the same time.

The bottles can be branded and even personalized. Finished with your logo and printed in your company colors if you like.
