Frequently Asked Questions
We're here for you. You can find answers to frequently asked questions in our FAQ section here . Otherwise, contact us directly via the contact form for further information.

Are SIGG bottles suitable for microwave use?
The bottles must not be placed in the microwave, on a hot stove, in a hot oven or in the freezer.
Can hot water be poured into an aluminum bottle?
Aluminium is an excellent conductor of heat. This means that the temperature of the liquid is also noticeable on the outside of the
drinking bottle. We therefore recommend filling it with water at a maximum temperature of 40°C.
What liquids can I store in SIGG drinking bottles?
All SIGG drinking bottles have been tested with many different types of drinks, such as acidic drinks, carbonated drinks, milk, alcohol, apple and lemon juice, etc. However, we do not recommend leaving drinks with natural fermentation processes, such as apple juice or milk, in the bottle for long periods of time. This natural process can encourage bacterial growth and create gases and strong odors that are difficult to eliminate.
Are the water bottles leak-proof?
All SIGG caps are waterproof. But caps and seals are also subject to normal wear and tear from intensive use. We recommend not washing the bottle cap in the dishwasher, but removing it, rinsing it with hot water and letting it air dry. It is often also helpful to replace the bottle seal where possible. This is available as a spare part from retailers and in our web shop.
What is the best way to clean aluminum/glass/plastic bottles?
For aluminum bottles: Use cleaning tablets or mild detergent; do not put in the dishwasher.
For glass bottles: Clean by hand only, no chlorine or bleach, use soft cloths/sponges.
For plastics ( e.g., Tritan, polypropylene): Although partially dishwasher safe, hand washing with a mild detergent is recommended to avoid damaging printing ink, etc.

The material makes the difference
For a long time plastic bottles were the most popular bicycle bottles. Nowadays, however, stainless steel and aluminium have also established themselves as materials for bicycle water bottles. Plastic drinking bottles are lightweight and the fill level can be read off easily through the clear material. In addition, many plastic bottles have an ergonomic shape that fits perfectly into the bicycle bottle cage.
Aluminium drinking bottles are just as light as plastic bottles, protect the contents optimally from light and germs and are therefore excellently suited as bicycle drinking bottles.
Stainless steel bicycle drinking bottles are heavier than aluminium or plastic bottles, but more robust. In the thermal version, the stainless steel bottles keep your drink hot or cold for several hours, as a cool refreshment on hot days and a warming benefit on winter tours.
Racing cyclists or hobby biker?
How you use your bike also influences which SIGG bicycle bottle is the right one for you! If you only do a few laps every now and then when the weather is nice, a smaller, handier bottle will do. However, if you are willing to go all out in all kinds of weather, and if you go on longer bike rides, then a larger bicycle water bottle with more capacity - preferably in the thermo version - is more suitable.
SIGG Bicycle Drinking Bottles
At SIGG we have developed many different models of water bottles with different functions.
Our Sports model is made of aluminium with a recessed grip and an extra grippy material so that it won't slip out of your hand while riding. It also fits into standard bicycle bottle cages and can be opened easily with your mouth.
The VIVA water bottles are available in the lighter 0.5L version, with an innovative one-hand closure and in bright colours made of transparent polypropylene.
But these are by no means all bicycle bottles from SIGG! Browse through our range and find the bike water bottle that best suits you and your bike.
Bicycle Drinking bottles in everyday life
When you are not pedaling, you can use your bike bottle in everyday life as an environmentally friendly alternative to plastic bottles or disposable cups to keep you hydrated all day long.
Of course, all our bottles are BPA- and pollutant-free. If you would like to learn more about this, please click here.
