Circular&Co. Recycled Stainless Steel Reusable Water Bottle

 £30 (750ml in Midnight Blue)

Circular&Co. is a company on a mission to help create a more sustainable world, where we produce less waste and can protect landscapes and oceans in the process. Thus, the company have developed its Circular Design, which aims to set the standard in sustainability, and help give single-use products a second chance. The Circular Design focuses on three main areas: a product must be made from recycled content, be made to last, and once they come to the end of their lifecycle, they can easily be recycled once again in real-world recycling infrastructures. Therefore, all of these factors are key to Circular&Co.’s product development, and so we were super excited to put the Recycled Stainless Steel Reusable Water Bottle to the test.  

The Recycled Stainless Steel Reusable Water Bottle we got to test out came in a lovely dark blue colour, with a matte finish and a useful carrying handle. The 750ml bottle, which also comes in 500ml and 1000ml sizes, is designed to keep you hydrated all day long. The bottle is made from 90% recycled stainless steel, which is a great option because the material retains its quality even after recycling. Therefore, the stainless-steel design offers an insulated bottle that will keep your drinks cold or hot for an extended period of time, whilst also helping to cut down on waste. In fact, the bottle aims to keep a hot drink warm for 12 hours, a cold drink cold for 24 hours, and an iced drink iced for a remarkable 48 hours! I’m not sure my drinks ever last more than a few hours, but this high level of insulation ensures your drinks are perfectly warmed or chilled until the very last drop.

One of the things I look for when purchasing a reusable water bottle is the leakproof nature of it, and the Circular&Co. water bottle really doesn’t disappoint. The bottle features Circular&Co.’s Swift-Click™ lid, which allows you to open and close the lid with just one hand for easy drinking, even on the go. However, once you click the lid down, it creates a great seal to stop any of your drink from getting out, ensuring no leaks on the go. Then, should you want to put the bottle in your bag, Circular&Co. has gone one step further and included a Trust-Lock™, which allows you to twist the closing cap, to ensure that the clickable opening feature cannot be used. This closure ensures you never get to your destination and realise the contents of your bag is a bit soggy! Overall, I love the looks and feel of the bottle, and with 750ml, it’s the perfect size for carrying with you all day, without being too heavy. Plus, for added portability, it even has an ergonomic carry handle so you can bring it on hikes or camping this summer for hydration on the go – supported by a design that is made almost entirely from recycled stainless steel!

When it comes to Circular&Co.’s products, I really love that every single one is designed to last for a long time. However, when they do eventually come to the end of their lifecycle, I love that the bottle has been designed so that it can be easily recycled. This is great because it ensures that its products are not contributing to excessive waste throughout the product's life, as well as when it's no longer functional. This helps stop waste from ending up in landfills, our oceans or landscapes, and keeps these useful products within the recycling process.

Overall, the Circular&Co. Recycled Stainless Steel Reusable Water Bottle offers a great, secure, and leakproof water bottle that will help cut down on excessive plastic waste from single-use bottles, whilst also keeping your drinks hot or cold throughout the day for all-day hydration. If you’re looking for a reusable insulated water bottle, Circular&Co. is the perfect option, as not only will you get a great water bottle, but you’ll be supporting a company committed to reducing global waste.
