Not A Lot Of Bottle

Is that a rolled-up, re-usable, fold-and-go water bottle in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me? 


This is a bottle after our own hearts. Green Thing has long advocated Asking for Tap whenever you can, the trouble is it's not always that easy to carry around a re-usable bottle with you.


Enter the 'fold-and-go' Vapur - designed for portability and res-usability it can be rolled, folded or flattened when not in use.


Clever.

This is a great idea, but i do agree with the comments made by kellis.

I agree with kellis above. Storing and re-using plastic containers for water has always been a health risk, as chemicals in the plastics break down over time and are absorbed into the water. Besides, even though it's considered "re-usable" and therefore green, I have a hard time thinking that anything made out of plastic is a healthy choice for the environment.

The problem with plastics is there's all sorts of stuff that plastic is made from that gets into the water. This product says it's BPA-free which is cool, but I don't know enough about it to feel comfortable there's no plastic-associated toxins still in the water. I use stainless steel. granted it doesn't fold but it's one material and you know what's in it, and the water tastes better too.

Your adverts are offensive rubbish which only make YOU look like the idiots. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.
