5 important things to know about stainless steel water bottle

Our stainless steel water bottles are made of SS grade 304. Let’s look at 5 things you need to know why stainless steel is the best choice for water bottles:

Molecular structure: Stainless steel 304 is an austenitic grade – a molecular structure made from the iron-chromium-nickel alloy blend – that can be severely deep drawn.

Anti-Corrosive Properties: 304 stainless steel is essentially non-magnetic. It’s less susceptible to corrosion because austenitic steels are generally low carbon. SS 304 exhibits excellent resistance to corrosion in various environments.

Non-reactive Properties: 304 is commonly referred to as “food-grade” stainless steel because it does not react to most organic acids used in the food industry. Stainless Steel 304 is widely recognized as “food-grade” due to its non-reactive properties with most organic acids employed in food processing. That’s why 304 stainless steel is often called “food-grade” – it’s safe for use with food acids.

Durable: Stainless steel is a preferred material for water bottles due to its durability and non-toxic properties, which prevent chemical contamination of the water. Stainless steel’s unique combination of strength and non-reactive properties makes it a top pick for water bottle construction.

Easy maintenance: Stainless steel’s non-porous surface makes cleaning a simple process, eliminating the risk of lingering odors. That’s why Stainless steel water bottle is easy to clean and preserves freshness. It doesn’t hold onto bad smells or tastes. Stainless steel stays clean and hygienic. It’s easy to maintain.

The 6 most notable factors to consider when selecting Stainless steel over plastic for water bottles

• Stainless steel water bottles are safer than plastic due to their non-toxic properties.

• Plastic water bottles may contain BPA (Bisphenol A) which can contaminate food, and beverages, whereas stainless steel bottles are inherently BPA-free. Plastics that contain BPA have been linked to health problems such as heart disease, fertility issues, and metabolic disorders.

• Stainless steel water bottles are more eco-friendly than plastic, as they can be reused multiple times. Stainless steel is environmentally friendly because it is 100% recyclable and can be melted down and reused without losing its quality. The material can be continuously recycled and repurposed throughout its lifespan, significantly reducing waste and reliance on new raw materials. 

• Stainless steel water bottles keep drinks hot or cold for hours, unlike plastic bottles. Steel water bottles with double-wall insulation can hold hot or cold temperatures for up to 12 hours. The insulation feature of stainless steel makes it a perfect choice for those who want to carry hot coffee in the winter or icy water in summer. The temperature of beverages can be maintained without any reheating or refrigeration using these bottles as a reliable solution.

• Stainless steel is considered more dishwasher-safe than plastic. Most stainless steel items can be safely cleaned in a dishwasher, Plastic items on the other hand can deteriorate, discolor, or degrade after repeated dishwasher usage, depending on the type and quality of the plastic.

• In the long run, stainless steel water bottles are considered cost-effective because of their exceptional durability and longevity compared to plastic bottles meaning The less frequently you replace them, the more money you save over time. The long lifespan of a stainless steel bottle makes it a more economical choice in the end.
