Swiss Water Bottles - Large selection of sizes, colors and materials

The Origin of Drinking Bottles

The origins of Water Bottles go back a long way, as we humans recognized the importance of hydration very early on. Drinking water was bottled both to extend the shelf life of the water and to enable its transportation.

It is not possible to date the invention of the Water Bottle exactly. However, bottles made of clay, tin and other materials have been found during archaeological excavations in Asia and Egypt. These were not only used to store drinking water, but also oils or medicine, for example.

The oldest find of a glass Water Bottle can be dated to the end of the Middle Ages, although the production of glass had already been known for a long time. In the 17th century, this process was steadily improved and industrialization in the 18th century then made the mass production of glass bottles possible.

Today, there are countless varieties of Water Bottles. Made from different materials, in classic, sporty or elegant designs. From small bottles with a small filling capacity, such as special Water Bottles for kindergarten, to medium-sized models and large Water Bottles for frequent drinkers. The 1 liter Water Bottles or even the 1.5 liter Water Bottles are particularly popular.

The growing use of reusable Water Bottles benefits our environment. For even more sustainability, we at SIGG produce Water Bottles from recycled materials. We are particularly proud of our MyPlanet™products such as the aluminum drinking bottles made from 100% recycled aluminum and our bottles made from Tritan Renew with 50% certified recycled material. We develop and produce the aluminum bottles in a climate-neutral way in Switzerland. Using a sustainable Water Bottle is the ideal solution for anyone who wants to integrate more sustainability into their everyday life and make a positive contribution to the environment. We can pass these resolutions on to our children at an early age and with the help of the cool designs of our Water Bottles for school, it's easy to do so.

Our materials

In order to be able to offer an extensive range of Water Bottles in all shapes and sizes, we use different materials to meet individual customer needs. All materials used are free of harmful substances, which is why we only offer BPA-free Water Bottles in our range.

Our aluminum Water Bottles are long-standing classics. SIGG has been producing high-quality aluminum products since 1908. From the very beginning, the Water Bottles were designed to transport a wide variety of drinks without leaking. This has even been confirmed by Stiftung Warentest, where the sturdy aluminum bottle from SIGG was the only bottle tested to be completely leak-proof, making it the test winner. These outstanding properties have made SIGG bottles synonymous worldwide with intelligent, sustainable Water Bottles. This makes our aluminum Water Bottles loyal companions for every day and all areas of life.

Based on the success story of the original SIGG aluminum bottle, the company has expanded its product range to include high-quality bottles made of glass, Tritan and polypropylene, always keeping its core values of sustainability and versatility in mind.

Glass Water Bottles have a long tradition. They provide a pleasant drinking experience and are fully recyclable. This significantly reduces the production of new waste. The material is food-safe and hygienic, as it does not absorb odors, tastes or discoloration and is also free from harmful substances. Glass drinking bottles are available in both child-friendly and adult versions.

Water Bottles made from 18/80 stainless steel have also proven their worth. The material is recyclable and absolutely free from harmful substances. Stainless steel is also robust and unbreakable, lightweight, tasteless and odorless and dishwasher-safe up to 90°C. Another advantage of stainless steel bottles is that the drink is protected from light and therefore does not go bad so quickly. Kids Water Bottles made of stainless steel are also available for our little ones in playful designs and patterns that will withstand any adventure.

Plastic Water Bottles made of polypropylene or Tritan are, contrary to many expectations and just like our other Water Bottles, free from harmful substances and recyclable. Polypropylene is a strong, resilient plastic, making it ideal for the production of Water Bottles. Water Bottles made from plastic bottles are particularly popular because they are available in countless versions with a wide variety of designs, are lightweight compared to other bottles and are inexpensive to buy.

Tritan Water Bottles made from the patented plastic Tritan™ are absolutely free from harmful substances such as oestrogen-active substances and phthalates. Although the material looks like glass, it is light as a feather, unbreakable, tasteless, odorless and dishwasher-safe up to 90°C. Our Tritan™ models are also leak-proof, even with carbonated drinks. As Tritan™, like all our materials, is recyclable, Tritan™ bottles are the perfect alternative to PET bottles.

Stay hydrated – The drinking bottle as a loyal companion

The purpose of your Water Bottle is just as diverse as the materials. Whether for sport, leisure, work or school, our body is constantly dependent on a supply of fluids. The amount we need to drink each day should not be underestimated. As a rule of thumb, you should drink at least one liter of fluid for every 20 kilograms of body weight. On hot days or during sporting activities, the requirement is even higher. People who travel a lot often find it difficult to meet their needs. It is usually possible to buy something to drink on the go. However, it is much more practical, cost-effective and environmentally friendly to take your Water Bottles with you from home in your own outdoor water bottle.

To find the ideal Water Bottle for you, you should ask yourself what requirements the Water Bottle should meet before you buy it. For active people who move around a lot, weight is important. A heavy Water Bottle can quickly become a burden when hiking. If you then add the corresponding amount of liquid, the bottle is all the heavier and hiking may be a little less enjoyable. Sport Water Bottles should also be robust. During sporting activities, it can easily happen that the bottle falls down. SIGG Fitness Water Bottles are not only robust, but also carbon dioxide-proof and easy to clean. Many Water Bottles are dishwasher-safe, saving valuable time in everyday life.

Bicycle Water Bottles, for example, are ideal for cyclists as they are easy to open with one hand or even with the mouth - even while riding.
Size also matters. If you want to do a few laps on your bike now and again when the weather is nice, a smaller, more manageable bike bottle will suffice. However, if you also like to plan longer bike tours, you are better off with a bottle with a larger filling volume.


When choosing the right Water Bottle, the question of temperature resistance can be another decisive factor. If you feel the need for a cool cold drink in summer, an insulated bottle with appropriate insulation is ideal. This ensures that you still have a refreshingly cool drink with you even after hours at high temperatures. Conversely, it is also important for tea or coffee drinkers that the drink stays warm in the bottle for a long time, even on cold days. Our 1 liter thermo bottles also keep larger quantities of drinks warm or refreshingly cold for longer hikes. The thermal bottles for children in special designs are also ideal for our little ones' drinks.

In hectic everyday life, it can happen that the Water Bottle gets a good shake on the go. With carbonated drinks, this usually leads to the carbon dioxide being lost. This is annoying and no longer tastes as good. If you prefer to drink carbonated drinks, such as mineral water, apple spritzer or lemonade, our Water Bottles for carbonated drinks are the perfect solution. The carbon dioxide stays in them for a long time and tastes fresh even after hours - without leaking.
By the way: All our Water Bottles are leak-proof. After all, what could be more annoying than a wet bag or backpack? Whether made of glass, stainless steel or plastic - all SIGG Water Bottles are leak-proof. This is also important for the little drinkers, because a wet school bag is not uncommon in the turbulent school day. For children, SIGG has Kids Water Bottles in various filling quantities with colorful, child-friendly motifs. Our Disney Water Bottles are particularly popular. These include heroes such as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and other favorite characters from popular Disney films such as Cars or Frozen. A beautiful, child-friendly Water Bottle helps to ensure that children drink enough and are thus introduced to a healthy lifestyle at an early age through play.

Even more variety from SIGG: Coffee To Go cups and lunch boxes

Our reusable Travel Mugs for coffee drinkers and our Lunchboxes and lunch boxes provide even more variety and sustainability for anyone who not only wants to be "hydrated" on the go, but also wants to be supplied with snacks or a meal.

The double-walled Travel Mugs - just like our thermo bottles - come in different materials and trendy colors. Available in different sizes, these travel mugs are ideal for anyone who doesn't have time for a leisurely coffee or for those who like to enjoy their coffee on the go.

The drinking cups with straws in stylish colors offer spill resistance and easy handling, making them the perfect everyday companion. The practical containers keep cold drinks chilled for up to 24 hours and hot drinks warm for up to 4 hours. Perfect for iced coffee in the hot summer.

With our tea bottles to go, tea drinkers also get their money's worth. Whether loose leaf blends, tea made from whole leaves or infused water, our tea bottles with integrated sieve and fruit insert are ideal. As the drinks only come into contact with stainless steel and tasteless Tritan, the taste of the drink is not affected.

We have already mentioned above how important it is to drink enough fluids. However, it is just as important to eat healthily. To avoid having to resort to unhealthy fast food on the go, a Lunchbox is a great way to take freshly prepared food with you. We have developed two different models so that a simple sandwich can be transported just as easily as a fresh salad or a hearty stew: The simple lunch box made of aluminum and the thermo food container made of stainless steel. Naturally in the color and size of your choice. So you are fully catered for.

The lunch boxes and Water Bottles Sets from SIGG form the perfect basis for a healthy lifestyle. The product packages "Wanderlust Set" or "Sport Set" are suitable as gifts for friends and family, for example. With the sets, it is possible to save up to 20% compared to the individual price. The sets are available in different colors, models and designs.
