Stainless Steel

Stainless steel is by far one of the most popular options for reusable water bottles because of its temperature control and vacuum insulation features. This water bottle will keep your water cold for hours, so you can have a refreshing sip of your beverage each time. Plus, the sleek design of most stainless steel water bottles make them look more expensive and of higher quality.

Benefits:

• Well-insulated to maintain the temperature of your beverages for longer

• On trend and modern design

• Chemical resistant

• Strong and durable material

• Long lasting

• Customizable with your logo or design

Stainless Steel Water Bottle

Plastic

Plastic water bottles are great for everyday use because of the lightweight feel of them, making them easy to carry in your bag or keep on hand at work. The main downfall of custom plastic water bottles is that most of them are not insulated, which means your beverage won’t stay hot or cold for as long. On the other hand, the main selling point for plastic water bottles are their affordability, which makes them ideal custom promo items to giveaway at fundraisers, trade shows, or community events.

Benefits:

• Lightweight and easy to carry

• Dishwasher safe

• Affordable

• Available with different lids – twist, screw-on, push-top, and straw

• Customizable with your logo or design

Plastic Water Bottle

Aluminum

Aluminum is another popular water bottle material that is the ideal choice for outdoor activities or team sports. The design of custom aluminum bottles provides a larger ounce capacity, making it easier to go longer without having to refill your water bottle. They’re also very affordable, easy to carry, and have a wide design that will showcase your logo or design front and centre.

Benefits:

• Lightweight and easy to carry (most come with an attachable clip)

• Durable exterior

• Long-lasting

• Affordable

• High ounce capacity

• Customizable with your logo or design

Aluminum Waterbottle

Glass

Glass is a versatile material that is used to store both food and liquid because it doesn’t alter or change the flavour of any substance it holds. Although a little heavier to hold and more delicate, it’s a great custom water bottle choice that looks classy and modern with your design added onto it. Also, most glass water bottles are chemical free and made from natural materials, making them a safe choice to carry your beverages in.

Benefits:

• Strong material

• Chemical free and made from natural materials

• Stylish and modern appearance

• Dishwasher safe

• Fresh taste at each sip

• Customizable with your logo or design
