Every day at Bottle Your Brand, we are fortunate to get to work with some of the most creative people around.  Every single one of our customers has an idea they’re bringing to life with our labels, and it’s a pleasure to help bring those ideas to fruition.

Whether it’s a bride who is crafting a custom wine label to match her wedding invitations or a small business owner using custom logo water bottles to market his company, everyone who orders from us has a creative idea they’re excited to share.  We love working with our customers to create labels they’ll love, and it’s even more fun for us to see how they end up using our products at their events.

That’s why we started our Gallery.  We’re proud of the labels we help our customers create and we want to show off their talent and showcase their creativity.  Our Gallery features pictures, submitted by our customers, of how they used our products in real life.

This is a great resource for anyone who’s looking for ideas for baby or bridal showers, celebrations, weddings, marketing opportunities, and more.  Flip through our photos and you’re bound to get inspired by these great ideas!

There’s something more than just inspiration in it for you as well.  If you’ve used our products in your event, you can email us your photos and automatically be entered in our monthly drawing for a $25 Amazon gift card!  All you have to do is send us an email with photos attached and a short note about how you used our products in your event and we’ll enter your name into the drawing and showcase your photos on our gallery.

There’s been a lot of buzz in the media recently about water bottles.  There’s a growing concern that bottled water is taking too heavy a toll on the planet and is an unnecessary indulgence.

Some of this buzz is justified.  After all, an astonishing nine out of every ten water bottles ends up as litter or in landfills, where they can take up to 1,000 years to decompose.  As appalling as this fact is, water bottles still accounted for less than 1/3 of 1% of all waste produced in 2005.

In fact, water bottles are 100% recyclable.  The plastic in water bottles can be re-used to create other plastic products and can even be used to make polar fleece jackets!  An estimated 1.5 million tons of plastic are used globally every year to create water bottles, but every ounce of this plastic is recyclable and re-usable.

The problem is not the water bottles, it’s the lack of readily available recyling containers in public places and in homes nation-wide.  Only half the homes in America have access to curb-side recycling programs, and there’s a dismal lack of recycling centers publicly available.

Patricia Franklin, who works with a non-profit called the Container Recycling Institute, says that the “opportunites for recycling outside the home are minimal, and therein lies the problem.”

We here at Bottle Your Brand are doing everything we can to lessen the impact of our water bottles on the environment.  Our bottles are made from PET 1 plastic, which is the safest and most easily recyclable, and we are always seeking out the newest developments in labeling technology that will have a diminished impact on the planet.

We are committed to responsible environmental stewardship and doing everything we can to take care of the world we all share.

Congratulations, you’ve found your way to our blog!  We started this blog to help you, our customers, find answers to some of the most common questions and learn more about the products we offer.

We’d like to start by introducing ourselves.  We are an e-commerce site dedicated to providing the highest quality personalized bottled water and labels.

Our company was founded in 2003 and the first version of our website was launched in February 2004.  We started from very humble beginnings.  In fact, for the first year of its existence, Bottle Your Brand was run out of a basement!

It was not the most glamorous start, but the potential in this market was great enough that the founders were willing to rough it for awhile to make it work.  At the time, there were no other e-commerce sites offering personalized water bottle labeling services.  There were companies who did personalized labels, but none had yet used the Internet to make the ordering process simple and quick.

Through a lot of trial and error, hard work, and the latest technology, Bottle Your Brand grew and is now one of the foremost suppliers of personalized bottled water and labels.  The team here has grown from three to nine employees and we have a lot of fun doing what we do.  We’re committed to helping you produce the best labels possible and enjoy watching your vision come to life.
