Off to Antarctica

There are lots of things that get me excited about my job, and receiving video messages from SOLE-sponsored athletes is one of them! Less than 18 hours before Team Jordan is to fly from Southern Chile to Antarctica, I received the video below in my email inbox:

Doing Good While Doing What You Love

At SOLE, we have the opportunity to work with some pretty great people. Some of them run 350 miles straight (Dean Karnazes, runner), some of them overcome incredible obstacles (Trevor Thomas, blind mountaineer), and some of them take something that they love and do good with it. Enter Mark Vaughn. Mark is one of SOLE's Sales Representatives based in Colorado. On October 9th, Mark ran the Denver Rock'n'Roll 1/2 Marathon with a group of people trying to make a difference. In a donation request letter sent to friends, Mark wrote: I am dedicating my race to helping provide clean water to communities in Africa. I'm kind of nervous about the miles, but I know that training with this purpose in mind will keep me going.

Artist Collection

One of the many great things about designing with stainless steel is that it creates a perfect medium for all kinds of art. This is why we have chosen to showcase our artists' work primarily on the round stainless steel bottles, available in seven categories.

Our Bottles

Whether you like to see your beverage or sport the latest artwork, Waterbox has a solution for you. Our products are made of food-grade materials that are durable and safe for every member of your family. No hidden liners to worry about. No "weird" aftertaste. And an easy to open cap that we will replace for free if you lose yours - a virtual guarantee that your Waterbox bottle will be in your life as long as you want it to be.

Who We Are

Waterbox grew out of the idea that a bottle should not be limited to its functional use, but should look and feel good as well. Over 32 million single use plastic bottles are thrown away every day in the United States alone and this doesn't have to happen. One of the things we recognize is that if your bottle looks great and functions well, you'll use it every day.

Bamboo Water Bottle

The most strikingly beautiful new water bottle also gives you the purest drinking experience. Inside the bamboo shell is a 17-ounce glass bottle, which doesn’t contain BPA, doesn’t need a liner, and doesn’t retain the taste of liquids. The whole thing disassembles to throw in the dishwasher. While it’s a little heavy, it’s the best combination of good looks and safe drinking we’ve seen.

Bamboo Bottle Company Makes Stylish, Insulated, Glass Bottles

Given a choice, I prefer to drink water out of a glass container. Glass doesn't leach harmful chemicals like plastic, it adds no flavor to the water like metal sometimes does and I just like the way it feels.
