normal use. They come in a variety of colors and are the ideal bottle for athletic events.

This category includes aluminum and stainless steel bottles, which both have the longest shelf life. The downside is that if dropped, they can dent.
Aluminum Water Bottles
Aluminum water bottles are durable, lighter than
stainless steel, and keep liquids cold longer than polycarbonate bottles. These
bottles have a plastic or resin liner to prevent the metal from leaching into
the water. These bottles reduce the chances or your logo rubbing off over time and can also be laser engraved with your logo for an even more
impressive effect.
Stainless Steel Water Bottles

bottles are considered safe since stainless steel is a neutral metal that
doesn’t leach. Stainless steel bottles may be used as travel mugs to keep drinks
cooler for a longer period of time. They
are durable, but have less style options and are slightly heavier than aluminum
bottles. These bottles are relatively indestructible and are cheaper than aluminum.
Glass Water Bottles
