Serious hydration for big swiggers
We’re done with single-use plastic – in fact, we stopped buying bottled water years ago. And thus began the quest for the ultimate water bottle. A quest that went on and on until we discovered Nalgene’s latest line of Sustain bottles. Just as tough and rugged as the iconic originals – famed for their near unbreakable toughness and leakproof design – but now made from 50% waste plastic. In fact, Nalgene are turning flimsy, single-use bottles destined for landfill into high-performance, BPA/BPS-free Tritan Renew resin, allowing us all to swig sustainably. This extra-large 48oz (1.5 litre) wide-mouth version has a huge capacity and is easy to fill with ice cubes, perfect for high intensity activity when you need serious hydration, or for wild camps high in the hills when you might not be close to a water source. This size also comes in a trio of translucent colours, so you can quickly see how much fluid you are consuming or easily mix sports drinks and squash. Of course, many hikers also use their trusty wide-mouth Nalgenes as robust and watertight containers for first aid kits, extra food and so on, particularly on waterborne canoe/kayak trips or multi-day backpacking adventures.

Ethically Sourced Materials - This is the bottle, made with certified 50% recycled content. The Tritan Renew resin is powered by next generation recycling technology, transforming plastic destined for landfill into high performance drinkware.
The first Nalgene bottles were born in a lab in upstate New York, back in 1949. Which already sounds like the origin story of a Marvel superhero, but actually, the truth is a little more mundane: they were just plastic pipette jars. Still, they proved to be pretty tough. Made from a material that was virtually unbreakable and highly temperature resistant, they were ideal for the lab – but also well-suited to life in the wilderness. Over time, they were co-opted by US hikers, backpackers and boy scouts, who loved the bottles because they were shatterproof, leak-proof and lightweight.
The brand capitalised on this widespread popularity, creating a dedicated line of tough, adventure-ready water bottles designed for life on the trail. Fast forward a few decades and Nalgene has become one of the best-loved outdoor brands in the USA. Their bottles have found their way into the packs of weekend warriors, long-distance thru-hikers and elite climbers alike.
Of course, plastic isn’t without its problems, particularly when it comes to product sustainability. That’s why the brand’s Sustain programme is turning flimsy, single-use plastic water bottles into reusable, recyclable Nalgenes, rescuing waste plastic destined for landfill and recycling it into a safe and sustainable high-performance resin. Today, all Nalgene Sustain bottles contain 50% recycled plastic – the equivalent of 8 discarded plastic water bottles.
