Cheeki Stainless Steel Bottles
Cheeki is a fresh new Australian-owned brand that was launched with the aim of supplying safe, healthy and fun stainless steel bottles. As a result we hope to encourage a significantly reduced consumption of disposable plastic water bottles.
About BPA
Bisphenol A is extremely widespread among many household plastics such as baby bottles and food storage containers. BPA is a chemical used in the manufacture of plastics and epoxy resins and is a known carcinogen that has been linked to brain synapse, reproductive and developmental impairments. Canada announced in 2008 it’s intent to ban the sale of baby bottles containing BPA’s.Furthermore, repeated use of common disposable bottles (PET) can cause the plastic to break down and chemicals to leach into your drinking water. Try leaving a full plastic bottle (re-used) and a full Cheeki bottle overnight and next morning take a sip from each – the difference in taste is incredible. Cheeki Lids are made from BPA-free non-leaching polypropylene.
Environmental Concerns
Unless disposable plastic bottles are incinerated, they will be around in landfills, oceans and parks for hundreds of years. Most of us nowadays like to think that we are environmentally conscious, yet take a look at how many people are buying, carrying around and throwing out plastic bottles on a daily basis! Its mind-boggling. (not to mention the health risk, the taste or the expense). Millions of plastic bottles are thrown out – it’s really one of modern life ’s most ludicrous “developments” (not to mention the energy consumed in transportation and refrigeration).
Economy
You only need to refill your Cheeki bottle approximately five times as compared to purchasing five bottled waters to “break even”. We then hope you refill your Cheeki bottle five hundred times – for free!! (that’s a saving of about $1700!)
Fun
A cheeky range of Cheeki bottles that is constantly growing. Throw them in your bag, travel with them in your car, and stay hydrated. Sports Lids are a great accessory, as are the kids handles for the baby bottles. Slings and Pouches are also available for when you are out and about, great for keeping your drink cool!
Dishwasher Safe
Just put your cheeki bottle in the dishwasher to clean.
But best not to put the lids in the dishwasher though, the rubber washer doesn’t like it!
