Reduce™ WaterWeek™ Reusable Bottles are Eco-Friendly Answer to Plastic Water Bottle Bans Convenient Shelf Tray Promotes Grab-and-Go Water Every Day of the Week Recommended by Whom You Know

As many municipalities pass laws banning the purchase of disposable water bottles within their facilities, residents may think their options for convenient and portable water consumption have dried up. Not so. Reduce WaterWeek (www.reduceeveryday.com), a set of five sleek 16oz reusable, BPA-free, eco-friendly bottles from Base Brands (http://www.basebrands.com), was created to reduce plastic water bottle waste and make grab-and-go water consumption easy. The set fits neatly in a shelf tray, making it convenient for consumers to grab a water on their way out the door.
 
The plastic water bottle bans promote local water use and are an eco-friendly response to the landfill waste from plastic water bottles. New York recently passed its plastic water bottle ban to encourage the use of the state’s clean drinking water supplies. Other cities and universities have enacted bans or taxes, including Seattle, San Francisco, Chicago and Washington University.    

Ken Kreafle, CEO of Base Brands, said, “WaterWeek provides an economical, eco-friendly alternative to buying disposable plastic water bottles. It still offers the convenience people want, but also helps reduce bottle waste and save money at the same time.” Continued Kreafle, “The bottles are also slim and fashionable, so they fit in all kinds of settings, unlike some of the larger sports-oriented water bottles.”

Reduce WaterWeek (www.reduceeveryday.com) is part of the Reduce family of eco-friendly products designed to be “functionally sleek” while minimizing a consumer’s “carbon footprint”, or impact on the environment.  The line-up also includes the Reduce Compactor Can, a unique household trash can with a built-in compactor lid that compacts twice the amount of trash in the average home, without plugs or batteries. Another Reduce product is Melaboo™, a 100% biodegradable, non-toxic, eco-friendly line of brightly colored plates, bowls and kitchen tools that are both functional and attractive.

Eco Chic... Eco Cool... Eco Saving!   WaterWeek is the ONLY true solution for consumers to end the wasteful andcostly purchasing of bottled water, saving them over $500 year!

The bottles are made from light weight, BPA Free, Aluminum with a looped lid
for easy attachement for on the go, and Whom You Know put these to the test, and this is what the Earthy Peachy panel had to say:

For the longest time I kept buying water bottles until I noticed just how much money I was throwing away. Not only that, but when I would try to conserve and refill the bottle, it would end up smelling funky. That’s why when I saw the Reduce water bottle collection I instantly fell in love with it. First of all, I’m into things that are earth friendly and the fact that it is eco friendly is a huge plus. Second of all, it comes in a pack of 5 bottles, each one in a cool color. They’re also dishwasher safe, and keep your water chilled for hours! I liked them so much I had to give a few to my family and they can’t stop bragging about how convenient these bottles are.  

I loved these!  They had attractive package with visibility to the 5 bottles, and a good color scheme on the set.  I use blue for Blue Monday! Then I use reddish brown for Terrible Tuesday.  Next was gray for Wednesday mid-week.  Following was green Thursday for approaching friday.  Finally bright red for Friday, get ready for week-end! These are made of aluminum to keep water cool. It's non-leaching of chemicals compared to if it were plastic.  The handy container to hold bottles in refrigerator is a great idea as well, with a hole in handle for ease of finger pickup.  Be sure to use filterd tap / well water in them!

I LOVE these bottles of water! I have been looking for easy, convenient, reusable, environmentally friendly water bottles. I hate having to buy a bottle every time I'm out. I drink about 64 oz of water every day and these bottles keep me going all day long! The bottles are durable, easy to clean - - dishwasher safe, they come in fun colors, and don't take up too much space in the fridge! I try to go green whenever I can and this really helps me do so. I just pour my filtered water into the bottle, place it in the fridge and there ya go - I have cold water at all times! I highly recommend this product for anyone who is on the go and needs a constant supply of water with them. 

The Reduce Water Bottle Set is perfectly styled.  I now use these bottles at the gym.  The durable aluminum bottles come in array of fashionable colors, always a good idea if like me you love coordinating with your outfit!  The bottle is light weight and at 16oz a perfect size.  Each of the five bottles come with a looped sport lid and when not in use a great holder keeps each in place in my cupboard.  This definitely beats me buying a water bottle each time I visit the gym.  I just fill this up and go, such a money saving idea.  The bottles are dishwasher safe so they are very low maintenance and with five bottles you will never have to worry that one is not available!
