Anti-Contamination Water Bottles

The 'Protean' Reusable Water Bottle Protects the Mouthpiece

— April 16, 2021 — Art & Design
Reusable water bottles are the norm for many consumers seeking out an eco-friendly alternative to single-use water bottles but are susceptible to contamination with daily use, so the 'Protean' reusable water bottle is designed to help curb this occurrence.

The water bottle has been designed by BergHOFF and features a mouthpiece that will stay completely covered when not being used. The press of a single button will reveal the mouthpiece for easy sipping without ever requiring the sipper to make physical contact with the lid for a safer drinking experience.

The 'Protean' reusable water bottle has a versatile design that is suitable for use with cold or hot drinks and maintains an unbreakable design for enhanced durability.

1. Anti-contamination Water Bottles - Reusable water bottles with protective features to prevent contamination offer disruptive innovation opportunities for the eco-friendly product market.
2. Mouthpiece Cover Technology - Innovative mouthpiece cover technology for water bottles offers opportunities for safer drinking experiences and improved hygiene trends for other products such as food containers.
3. Versatile Unbreakable Design - Versatile and durable water bottle designs that cater to different temperature requirements and accidental damage provide disruptive innovation opportunities in the product manufacturing industry.
