Sip with a Purpose: Cheers to Sustainable and Purpose-Driven Drinkware Brands

Hey there, fellow beverage enthusiasts! Are you ready to quench your thirst for style while making a positive impact? We're diving into sustainable and purpose-driven drinkware brands. Get ready to sip with purpose and raise your favorite cup or bottle to a better world. Let's drink in the goodness together!

Let's face it, we all have our favorite drinkware – the trusty mug, the go-to water bottle, or the fancy travel tumbler. But what if your choice of cup or bottle could do more than just hold your drink? Sustainable and purpose-driven drinkware brands are turning sipping into an act of positive change for both you and the planet.

 

Refresh Glass

Refresh Glass has a 10 million bottle rescue mission. Shockingly, the average individual discards around 1,600 pounds of trash annually. The United States collectively produces enough waste to circle the globe 24 times in a year. Even though a whopping 75% of this trash is easily recyclable, merely 30% of it actually finds its way to recycling facilities. Adding to the predicament, landfills are burdened with over 5% of glass waste. Surprisingly, a significant two-thirds of wine bottles are left unrecycled. However, there's a silver lining – recycling just one glass bottle is a powerhouse of energy savings. This simple act conserves enough energy to illuminate a 100-watt bulb for approximately six hours, fuel a computer for 30 minutes, or entertain you with a television show for 20 minutes.

 

Ocean Bottle

With every purchase of an ocean bottle, you contribute to the retrieval of 1000 plastic bottles that were destined for the ocean. Our oceans are inundated with a staggering 48 million pounds of plastic daily – equivalent to a full truckload every single minute. This alarming influx is on the rise. However, there's a beacon of hope: local residents in coastal areas are exchanging this plastic for money through a regulated banking system. This, in turn, grants them access to vital resources such as microfinance opportunities, educational support, healthcare, and other necessities. As a testament to their commitment to sustainability, all bottles are thoughtfully packaged in craft materials and are entirely recyclable.

 

CORKCICLE®

CORKCICLE® crafts products that effortlessly merge personal style with a commitment to lessening our individual impact on the environment. Their designs focus on both enhancing the insulation of your cherished belongings and elevating your daily experiences. Surprisingly, 785 million individuals across the globe lack access to clean and safe water, and every acquisition from CORKCICLE® contributes towards addressing this issue. Through their partnership with charity: water, CORKCICLE® helps provide clean water to those in dire need. This initiative holds the power to bring about transformative change in developing nations, restoring health, paving new opportunities, and driving substantial improvements. Access to clean water not only empowers children with more school time but also provides parents with increased opportunities to generate income, effectively combating poverty. In Africa, 40 billion hours are collectively spent by women fetching water each year. Providing a community with clean water gives these women their lives back, freeing them from this immense burden. When you support charity: water, every single donation contributes entirely to the mission of supplying clean water to those who need it most. Remarkably, every dollar dedicated to clean water can yield an impressive economic return ranging from $4 to $12.

 

Klean Kanteen

Klean Kanteen crafts top-quality drinkware to combat single-use plastics. With every purchase, they give one percent to environmental nonprofits through 1% For The Planet. They've donated over $3.4 million to programs restoring the wild and promoting human and environmental health. Their commitment to sustainability includes using 90% post-consumer recycled stainless steel, reducing emissions by 40%. They're a Certified B Corp, Climate Neutral, and 100% Carbon Neutral. Their initiatives, like the first BPA-Free reusable water bottle and non-toxic KleanCoat finish, set them apart. Guided by four pillars—plastic pollution, safe products, conservation, and stewardship—they partner with organizations like 5 Gyres, BCPP, American Rivers, and Outdoor Afro. Klean Kanteen is leading positive change with every sip.
