Plant-Based Water Bottle - 700ml

Good light weight bottle. Works as expected. The perk is that it is half plant based. No other company has done that. To me the initiative counts. I would recommend this to anyone interested.

Better then my Yeti! Everyone should have one of these AMAZING water bottles! I’m buying 5 more as gifts for friends!

It looks great and I love that it’s made out of plants and sure it will be great

Love your ski wax products and this looks cool too. But I think it’s important to be fully transparent about what’s in items that are sold as “plant-based”. This bottle contains LDPE, which is plastic. While it can be recycled in theory, in practice a mere 2% of LDPE in the US is recycled. And one wonders how the corn-based material impacts recyclability. The LDPE is also probably not biodegradable.

So, this looks like a great bottle and I will consider ordering one - it probably (hopefully) is less toxic than other bottles and I appreciate what you are trying to do. However, as much as we all want to kick plastic, it’s not easy and I think it’s worth asking if something can fairly be labeled plant-based when it’s 30% plastic. “Plant-based” for me implies no plastic. It’s fair to say that less plastic went into making this product than others but it’s hard to even say less fossil fuels were used because of how energy intensive corn crops are.

There are no easy answers, I realize, except metal bottles and just buying fewer bottles unless you really need them. In any case, thanks for pushing for less toxic outdoor products. I really appreciate what you are doing.
