More than 60 million plastic bottles are said to end up in landfills every day. This has resulted in about 22 billion piling up in landfills. Plastic bottles are currently not recyclable because only certain types of plastic bottles can be recycled by certain municipalities, according to One Green Planet. This means, most end up in landfills leaching dangerous chemicals into the ground. To make matters worse, they end up in oceans and damaging wildlife, too. For example, a sperm whale was found dead with 13 pounds of plastic in its stomach. Non-reusable plastic bottles are damaging our environment, our wildlife and our health. Although it may seem convenient to quickly grab that plastic bottle from the fridge or on-the-go, these days, it’s much more beneficial to grab your reusable bottle. By going reusable, you can save money, help save the environment, and it’s even the healthier and tastier choice.
Now, when going reusable, there are many different options. The most popular seem to be glass and plastic. Each of these types of bottles have its benefits. For example, plastic is durable, it’s cheap, it can go anywhere, but it’s said that these bottles can leach chemicals into water. On the other hand, glass water bottles are easy to clean, they do not leach contaminants, they are environmentally friendly, but they are easy to break.
Although glass seems to be the more superior bottle, there are many places that these bottles can’t go because of the danger of them breaking. So, what if we could combine the durability of plastic with the benefits of glass? That’s exactly what we’ve done with Glasstic. It’s a shatterproof, glass water bottle that is perfect for any adventure or occassion.
So, where can Glasstic take you that a normal glass bottle can’t go?
The Pool
We all read those rules next to the pool that say “no glass allowed in pool area.” This is for good reason. The last thing you’d want to do is drop a glass water bottle in a crowded area where everyone is shoeless. This could definitely ruin a fun day at the pool.
Adventures
Glasstic is the perfect bottle for those adventurous souls out there. It’s a great bottle for any lifestyle, whether you’re hiking, rock climbing, canyoneering, or just traveling. Dropping your glass bottle on these adventures could mean you’re without water. That’s why finding a reliable and durable water bottle is crucial for these trips.
The Workplace
Glass isn’t banned from the workplace. However, we can’t recall how many times we’ve spilled coffee all over the computer or dropped glasses in the breakroom. Glasstic is a glass, shatterproof bottle that is comprised of plastic on the outside and a glass inner-shell. This means that Glasstic can hold hot liquids without burning your hands and there will be no mess to clean in the breakroom. No matter where your next activity takes you whether it’s to the office, on an adventure or to the pool, make sure to grab your Glasstic and enjoy your time!
