We wholeheartedly support recycling programs and responsible environmental stewardship.  Our water bottles are 100% recyclable and manufactured using PET 1 plastic, the safest and most recyclable plastic.  The world’s not perfect, and recycling facilities are not yet as widespread as we’d like, but our nation is moving in the right direction and we’re happy to do everything we can to help spread the news about the importance of recycling.

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.

It’s easy to see why. Bottled water is delicious, portable, and a convenient way to stay hydrated while on the go. Water bottles are also 100% recyclable, so it’s easy to enjoy bottled water while keeping the environment in mind.

We often get asked what’s so special about our water. After all, anyone who’s ever gone to a grocery store is well aware of the many varieties of bottled water that are available. There’s spring water, purified water, mineral water, well water, and even tap water. All of these varieties offer something different, but the one we prefer most is the one we carry: spring water.

Spring water is a specific type of water. Specifically, it’s defined as

Bottled water derived from an underground formation from which water flows naturally to the surface of the earth.

In order for water to qualify as spring water, it can only be collected at the spring, either where it bubbles out from the ground or through a borehole that taps the underground source of the spring.

Our water is from a private spring in the foothills of Oregon’s Coast Range. Both the spring and our bottling facility are routinely inspected by the Oregon Department of Agriculture. The bottling facility tests for anything that might contaminate the water (chemicals, fertilizer, pesticides, bromides, heavy metals, etc.) and the results are consistently negative. They also ozonate all water in order to ensure that water is clean before it’s bottled (Ozone is a natural water sanitizer.)

In addition to the tests conducted by the ODA, our bottler also tests its water daily to ensure that their water meets or excels all EPA requirements. The water is bottled at the source and then shipped to our facility in Washington state.

Our water is delicious and clean tasting and contains natural minerals, which is why we think it’s so special. We are happy to ship samples, so if you’re curious about the quality of our water all you have to do is ask!
