Useful information

Maintaining and repairing an aluminium water bottle

Is my water bottle insulated?

This bottle is insulated, the fuller the bottle, the better the cold or hot storage.
Be careful when using hot liquids, the bottle being very insulated, the liquids will stay hot for a long time!

We use a double-walled stainless steel technology with an air gap to block the heat exchanges that occur by conduction or convection. In order to block exchanges by thermal radiation, a thin layer of copper covers the outside of the internal wall.

What is the advantage of stainless steel?

Stainless steel is a very strong material and known for its durability.

Is the product good for my health?

Our products and materials meet current food contact standards. They do not contain Bisphenol A (BPA) in accordance with current French regulations.
