ALUMINUM vs PLASTIC

-
RECYCLED 70%+
Aluminum has inherent cash value, meaning it actually gets recycled. “Recyclable”=/=”Recycled” -
RECYLED 6% OF THE TIME
Single use plastics, like those in bottled water, are only recycled ~6% of the time, and made from only 3% recycled material.
-
INFINITELY RECYCLABLE
Aluminum maintains its quality when recycled. Bottle after bottle after bottle… -
DOWNCYCLED ONLY
Recycled plastic must be mixed with virgin plastic to make bottles. That means more oil and a polluted Planet.
-
COOLS IN 20 MINUTES
Cold water, fast. -
COOLS IN 2 HOURS
Heres some science: plastic is less thermally conductive than aluminum. That means it takes forever to get cold.
-
NO MICROPLASTICS
…because its not plastic -
MICROPLASTICS
93% of bottled water contains microplastics. Essentially if your drink from plastic "you're drinking plastic."
ALUMINUM vs CARTON

-
ALL ALUMINUM
Made of all aluminum, not plastic or layers of plastic. -
“BOXES” ARE NOT PAPER
“Carton” or “Boxes” are not what you think. These are manufactured by Tetrapak, Elopak, etc and made from layers of plastic, paper, and aluminum
-
EASY TO RECYCLE
Can easily be sorted, melted and made into something new at recycling centers. Back on the shelf as something else within 60 days! -
DIFFICULT TO RECYCLE
Multiple layers need to be de-laminated to recycle. More often than not boxes are landfilled. Recycled at around 16%.
-
100% POST CONSUMER
Made from up to 100% Post Consumer waste. Very little virgin aluminum is mined for the production of aluminum bottles -
5% POST CONSUMER
The majority of the materials in cartons are virgin
-
CONVENIENT SHAPE
Goes in a cup holder, backpack and on a bike ride. Round bottle, round hole. -
SQUARE PEG, ROUND HOLE
Our lives have been designed for round bottles. Try putting a square box in the round bottle cage on your bike, then let us know how it goes.
ALUMINUM vs GLASS

-
LIGHTWEIGHT
Only 14g per bottle! -
HEAVY
Glass bottles are heavy, about 10X the weight of the equivalent aluminum bottle. That's more fuel to ship both empty or filled.
-
TAKE ME EVERYWHERE
Aluminum is ready to go where you are. No glass shards here. -
OUCH!
Broken glass sucks. It's not going to the beach, the pool, on a hike etc.
