Doing away with single use plastic is very important to the planet. Only a few years ago everyone wanted to buy bottled water even though the water the had at home might have been cleaner.
Fortunately, we are getting away from that and are buying reusable water bottles and filters. Below is some information on companies in the USA. It will be very easy to find a great bottle from the options these companies offer and many come with lifetime warranty.
Liberty Bottleworks is one of America’s best-known water bottle brands. The company produces metal water bottles and states that it was founded because of the owners’ love for metal water bottles. The initial scope of the company was local – local jobs, local resources, and local distribution. But, as the business developed, the owners thought that an American company and an American product might influence the global market. Liberty Waters uses recyclable materials and recycles practically all its waste, which proves that it is very friendly for the environment. Liberty Bottles is today operating in the whole of the United States, from local businesses to the White House, and they even state that their uniquely designed bottles might be the first ones in outer space.
The forte of Liberty Bottles is the policy of recycling. They use 100% recyclable single-walled aluminum as well as recycled double-walled stainless steel. They also tend to recycle all their waste and recycle all bottles that aren’t good for use. They also support creative designers and artists, allowing them to design their bottles and thereby advertise them and their art. They also regularly donate their bottles to homeless people, shelters and different charities.

Nalgene was started in 1949 by chemist Emanuel Goldberg. The company was founded to facilitate the production of plastic laboratory equipment since Goldberg developed the first plastic pipette jar before founding the company. The Nalge Company initially produces just laboratory equipment, but during the 1960s, a group of Nalge scientists went hiking and took the Nalge plastic equipment with them because it was leak-proof and lightweight. It was still laboratory equipment back then, but the scientists have – for the first time – demonstrated that they could be used in the “wilderness”. By the 1970s, Nalgene bottles – at the time still branded just as laboratory equipment – were used by more and more hikers and adventurers; when the conservationists started to advocate using the carry-in/carry out policy, discouraging the use of common disposable bottler, the president of Nalgene got the idea that they should start producing non-disposable plastic bottles and sell them on the market. This led to the creation of the Nalgene Outdoor brand.
Nalgene was a pioneer because it was one of the first American companies that were not only environment-friendly (when related to using non-disposable materials), but also supported recycling. The goal was to give the users refillable, durable bottles, and not something they would just throw away and pollute the environment. Nalgene was certainly a pioneer in this field and is today a respectable brand that has something for everyone – bottles, plastic containers and other non-disposable products for hikers, schoolchildren, sportspeople and everyone else.

MSR was founded in 1969 by Larry Penberthy as a company that aimed to provide a better experience for adventurers and campers. It was primarily a company that produced high-quality, highly reliable camping gear, but as the years passed, MRS expanded its list of products, producing not only basic camping equipment, but also a variety of accessories such as cooking utensils and water bottles. MSR is very engineering-orientated and manufactures all of its products itself, i.e., with the help of its dedicated engineers, designers and manufacturers. The goal of the company is to provide reliable and sustainable products that are going to alleviate the outdoors experience for hikers, campers and other adventurers.
As for their products, they are made with care for the environment. MSR tends to reduce the quantity of waste produces, as well as to use healthier materials and less dangerous chemicals, while also using smaller packages for their products. They pride themselves in what they call responsible manufacturing.

Platypus is actually part of the same team as MSR, but are a separate company that has been present on the market for over than 20 years. They are a group of enthusiasts that make a variety of products for hikers and adventurers. The platypus has its own factory and they are proud to manufacture most of their products there. They also have their own certified laboratory in which they constantly do research and improve their products.
Platypus is a company that produces not just water bottles, but a variety of different products for adventurers, hikers and the likes. They also have products for everyday use and are very open to hearing your suggestions about their products. They tend to make ecologically friendly products and are very supportive of different environmental groups and organizations.

Polar Bottle is based in Colorado and has been on the market for more than 20 years. It started off as a garage project by hiking enthusiasts Robert Heiberger and Judy Amabile, who were tired of constantly drinking warm water while hiking on the hills of Colorado. It was then that the first-ever insulated, BPA-free sports bottle was produced. Polar started off as a DIY project and it was exactly that, that helped the company establish its position in the market, while at the same time supporting local communities. Unlike other brands, Polar specializes in producing water bottles, but also has other products and accessories to offer, with the bottles still remaining their main product.
Polaris bottles are try-layer plastic bottles that create an air barrier that insulates the liquids. They’re wrapped in a foil layer which reflects the sunlight and keeps the liquid at an optimal temperature for twice as long as other similar brands. The company takes pride in its passionate, two-decade dedicated work in the field, its local transparency, its entrepreneurial spirit (they started from the garage and became a large in-industry brand), its long-term accountability, and its mindfulness.

Vapur is a California-based company that started in 2009. They were created as an environment-friendly company that wanted to find a new solution to an old problem. Bottles, especially dispensable plastic ones, are not good for the environment and a large number of plastic waste is harming the planet. Vapur, Inc. thought about solving that problem and thought of a revolutionary, eco-friendly and flexible solution – the Vapur Anti-Bottle.
The Anti-Bottle is marketed as a bottle, but it’s actually a very interestingly designed bottle that resembles a bag or a container. They can be folded, rolled, or flattened, they’re 87% lighter than rigid plastic bottles and are more eco-friendly than other products. They are extremely durable and can be reused, and are also BPE-free, which makes them a lot safer and healthier for the users. They are freezable and can be safely used in the dishwasher. The Anti-Bottle has different models for different types of drinks, from regular water to spirits and wine.
Unlike other companies, Vapur only manufactures and sells its Anti-Bottles and supercaps, which makes them unique in the water bottle market of the United States.
