Lifefactory Beverage Bottles Better Bottles Bamboo Bottle


What a fabulous idea ~ a glass water bottle covered with renewable, Created by outdoor industry veterans, Bamboo Bottle Company was born after a slew of Las Vegas brainstorms, a few drawings on cocktail napkins, meticu- lous research and lots of late nights. One reoccurring theme became obvi- ous to the crew during every meeting: go bamboo. Bamboo is sleek, durable, stylish and best of all, renewable.


“We wanted to make a clean, great looking bottle you could drink hot or cold beverages from,” says Carland. “Clean to us meant the liquid had to taste great when drinking from the bottle and the product had to respect the environment as much as possible. Bamboo and glass allow us to accom- plish that goal. We hope to minimize our impact on the environment and increase reusable bottle awareness with the Bamboo Bottle Company.”

Because of the species’ stability, hard- ness and strength, Bamboo Bottles are made from Phyllostachys Pube- scens bamboo (also known as Moso and Mau Tzu). The bamboo is grown and harvested in temperate conditions that allow it to grow to its maximum potential – 90 feet in 9 months! The best part of the harvesting method is the hand selection and hand cutting of the bamboo. This allows maturing and flowering strands to remain flourishing and minimizes the impact on ground soil since no heavy machinery is used. Once cut, the bamboo will continue to grow just like mowing your lawn. This selective cutting process leaves the soil and land in its best possible state. The bamboo outer acts as a natural in- sulator for hot or cold beverages while protecting the glass interior during activities and accidental drops.
