SIGG’s Commitment to the Environment Is Second to None
First made in the early 20th century, SIGG has a growing repute for making the greatest in aluminium water bottles, kids water bottles, stainless water bottles and sports water bottles. Their commitment to the environment is second to none. By using highly advanced production techniques and regularly donating to environmental programs, SIGG hopes to pave the way for other companies to do the same. They’re a proud member of 1% for The Planet, which means that they donate 1% of worldwide sales to help protect the environment. While having one’s heart in the right place is all well and good, it’s nice to know that organisations such as SIGG are coupling sentiments with action. By purchasing a SIGG water bottle, you are not only buying a quality product, but directly helping to protecting the environment as well.
SIGG produces water bottles that are 100% BPA free. BPA, or bisphenol A as it is officially called, is a highly deadly chemical commonly found in the plastic lining of conventional water bottles. Results obtained from official studies have proposed that BPA can cause raised endocrine levels and even neurological issues. Similarly, phthalates are added to plastics and may be linked to allergies and even obesity; enquiries continue in those areas. The long and short of it is you re better off playing it safe with a BPA free bottle.
SIGG aluminium bottles contain a specially made inner lining that SIGG have appropriately named EcoCare. Not only is EcoCare leach proof, but it is highly resistant to odours and flavours. Therefore, flavours and odours from previous drinks don’t leave you with a nasty aftertaste. Leave fruit juice overnight in a plastic bottle and you will taste the difference!
SIGG produces over 100 new patterns annually. So for this seasons hottest patterns, trends and colours, try Water Bottles Direct, who regularly update their patterns to incorporate the latest releases. Some of SIGG’s designs are so unique and sort after that top fashion designers including Tommy Hilfiger and Kenneth Cole have even been known to design custom water bottles for auction. In keeping with SIGGs guiding philosophies, proceeds went to stop global warming. Having a bottle that harmonises nicely with your sense of style is simply a by-product of an item that is a healthier option, better for the world and is extraordinarily well crafted.
