Do you sense a theme here?  Our summers are hot here in Southern California, so it’s very likely that many of my posts this week will focus on cooling off and doing everything possible to have the best summer ever!  While smoothies, slushies, and frozen drinks are what we all enjoy chilling out with, its water that is the ideal drink to stay cool and hydrated when it starts to heat up.

As a family, we have committed to reduce our carbon footprint in a variety of ways, some of which include recycling, purchasing local, organic, sustainable foods/products as we are able, and being mindful of our energy/water consumption.  We also installed an Under-Sink Water Filtration System so that we would have increased peace of mind about the tap water we consume.  We gave up plastic water bottles a long time ago, after concerns over BPA and the reality that plastics can take decades or even centuries to decompose.

So what have we replaced our plastic water bottles with?

Glass is heavy and breakable and stainless steel can alter the taste of water and remains the most difficult to clean.

Contigo

Enter Contigo, a Chicago-based company revolutionizing the reusable travel mug and water bottle industry.  It’s easy to pull down a glass from the cupboard and refresh with a glass of water while at home.  When I’m out and about is the time when I’m tempted to use a plastic water bottle in a hurry.  And that is why Contigo exists! To make drinking on the go easy and mess-free!

Contigo

Some of the brand’s unique features include AUTOSEAL, featured on their travel mugs, water bottles, and kids cups, which automatically seals between sips.  Spilled water is easy to clean up…spilled milk or juice? Not so easy…particularly if your child doesn’t let you know the spill has occurred! One of the other benefits of AUTOSEAL is the fact that the travel mugs will keep drinks hot for up to 4 hours or cold for up to 12 hours.  And if you’re active like my husband is, you’ll like Contigo’s AUTOSPOUT feature with it’s pop-up spout for convenient, one-handed drinking!

Contigo

Contigo’s travel mugs, water bottles and kids cups are 100% BPA free and the kids cups are also free from phthalates and PVC.  The one question I do have that isn’t easily found on the site is the source of their materials.

In a few weeks, I’ll share my detailed experience with the Contigo products we received!  Have you ever tried Contigo’s water bottles, travel mugs, or kids cups?  Now is your chance!

  113. I like the idea of becoming more environmentally friendly by using reusable bottles. This is a great way to help people stop wasting plastic bottles. They can be reusable ones and help keep less plastic out the environment.
