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.

What materials are best to use in a sports bottle?
Which sports bottle is perfect for you depends on the type of sports you do.
Things to look out for: the material as well as the volume of the sports bottle, which both impact the weight and stability of the drinking bottle.
If you like to train in the gym or generally indoors with many storage options, you can carry larger, heavier gym bottles, like our 0.85 L glass water bottle.
For joggers, smaller, lighter bottles made of aluminium or tritan are more useful. Outdoor enthusiasts probably prefer a more robust bottle made of stainless steel, which can keep drinks hot and cold for several hours in the thermal version.
Which sports bottle is the best sports bottle for you?
In our drinking bottle range we have numerous collections that can generally all be used as sports bottles. Regardless of that we created some of our collections solely with the purpose to use them as a sports bottle. Including our "Total Clear" collection made out of extra lightweight Tritan and a practical one-hand-opening, perfect for running. Our "Sports" collection fits perfectly in a bottle cage due to its ergonomic shape. If you are a enthusiastic cyclist or mountain biker you can have a look at our bike water bottle site and find out which bike water bottle fits you best.
Leak-proof water bottles for carbonated drinks!
You prefer carbonated mineral water over simple still water? No problem for SIGG water bottles and the many different bottle tops in our collection. All of our sports bottles are leak-proof no matter what liquid you choose to take with you. Our aluminium water bottle even got certified by the German foundation for product testing - as the only drinking bottle of all tested ones.
The importance of regular cleaning of sports bottles
To ensure that your sports bottle can be used for several years to come the bottle should be regularly cleaned. Preferably rinsed out with water after each use or even better, cleaned with the corresponding cleaner tabs. During sports you come in contact with many bacteria, so it is especially important to clean your fitness bottle regularly. Our WMB - Wide Mouth Bottles are particularly easy to clean thanks to their large opening.
On our accessories page, you can find additional bottle tops for your SIGG sports bottle, such as our Screw Top or 3 Stages Sports Top, which allow you to customise your bottle the way you need it!
