Stainless steel water bottles: What are the advantages of using stainless steel water bottles
When it comes to buying a drink bottle there are many alternatives, most of which can be compared and bought online, but the most popular type of drink bottle that is increasingly being purchased is the stainless steel water bottles. There is a long list of advantages for using stainless steel water bottles, including durability and reusability, but the real benefits of stainless steel water bottles become apparent when they are compared to plastic drink bottles and aluminium water bottles.
Top quality manufacturers of reusable drink bottles have begun designing and manufacturing stainless steel water bottles to replace plastic and aluminium drink bottle alternatives that are currently on the market. Stainless steel, and particularly 304 grade (or 18/8), is one of the most hygienic materials available, so hygienic in fact that the same material is often used in the manufacture of surgical equipment, kitchen utensils and now drink bottles. Stainless steel water bottles therefore have the advantage of reducing the risk of water contamination that is apparent with plastic and aluminium water bottle alternatives, through the potential leaching of BPA and other chemicals. Stainless steel also provides bacteria resistance, which means that individuals concerned about their health can now purchase a water bottle that is lightweight, durable and free from chemical leaching.
Water stored in stainless steel water bottles is highly effective in retaining the flavour and purity of the drink, which is not necessarily the case with plastic or aluminium water bottle alternatives. In aluminium drink bottles for example, an epoxy resin inner lining is baked on at 400 Degrees Celsius in order to prevent the aluminium from contaminating the water. This epoxy resin however contains many chemicals that are themselves, at risk of contaminating water over time, as they eventually degrade and leach into the water. Similar to plastic these many different types of chemicals are consumed by drinking the contaminated water, which over time increases the risk of affecting your health, particularly if the drink bottle is used on a regular basis, such as daily or over a long period of time.
Given a similar weight, durability and price to plastic water bottles and aluminium drink bottle alternatives, it is apparent that stainless steel water bottles should not be overlooked when buying a drink bottle. Their superior material qualities make it a better alternative for reducing the risk of water contamination and the need to effectively maintain it. They are proof that drink bottles are not all the same, and should be researched and chosen appropriate considerations.
