The alternative to packaged water: the Bottle Made Blue
We would like to put an end to the madness of packaged water. This can be challenging, however. Not everyone carries a refillable water bottle with them, and available alternatives are expensive to give away for free. That’s why we developed a very affordable and reusable alternative with a huge impact: The Bottle Made Blue.
500 litres per bottle
This is the Bottle Made Blue: a reusable water bottle made of indestructible Tritan. Rock hard, crystal clear and unbreakable. The bottle is BPA-free, made in the Netherlands, recyclable and dishwasher safe.
Never before has a reusable water bottle of this quality been so affordable and fully customizable, starting at €1,75 per bottle.
Most importantly: each bottle provides 500 litres of clean drinking water for our water projects! Each bottle gives a child in a developing country access to clean drinking water and hygiene at school for at least 6 months.
The bottles also prevent 3,5kg of CO₂ emissions and save 8 pounds of plastic waste from the landfill. Read how that works here.
Water bottle with print
The Bottle Made Blue is available from stock in a box of 54 pieces with a striking Made Blue print. The bottle can be personalized with a logo on the cap (starting at 108 bottles), a ‘message in the bottle’ or a doming sticker.
If you want to have this sustainable water bottle printed with a custom design, you can do so starting at 1,300 pieces at very favourable rates, both in mono- and full colour. Contact us to discuss what suits you best, or share with us your wishes for your ideal bottle below.
Free water tap point?
Let your guests fill their bottles with filtered (and chilled) tap water. That’s about as sustainable as it gets. This saves time when setting up the hotel rooms for each guest and offers a useful place to communicate with them. See for example this water tap from Novotel Amsterdam Schiphol Airport.
We offer water taps at cost price or as a lease, including maintenance and service. If you combine your water tap with a Bottle Made Blue order, we are even able to offer the water fountain free of charge.
There are water taps in many shapes and sizes: built-in, surface-mounted, free-standing, with or without sparkling water options. Read all about it on our page about water coolers.
Less expensive than PET?
Packaged water can quickly cost 50 cents per bottle, and on top of that, there are additional costs for collecting and removing the waste. There are also many social costs involved: the ‘true price’ of packaged water is up to double the price you pay in money.
When utilized correctly, the Bottle Made Blue is cheaper than packaged water. Let us explain how that works.
With a retail value of €14,95, the Bottle Made Blue is the best packaging for on-the-go water for your guests, for you and the world. Pick the Bottle Made Blue and help put an end to the madness of packaged water.

This easy-to-implement and sustainable initiative has many benefits: elimination of single-use plastic bottles, fewer manual actions by housekeeping staff, less transportation to and from the hotel, unlimited refills for hotel guests, and 500 litres of water donated for every bottle sold.

SLEEVES
Our ambassador i-did designed this sleeve from recycled textiles made in an occupational social workspace. You can embellish it with a stamp, a cut-out or a logo on the label.
This makes our bottle even more sustainable. Plus, the unique story of i-did and Made Blue will remind your guests and customers of you often, and fondly.
The sleeves are available in several colours, including the blue of recycled KLM uniforms!
You can also order a Bottle Made Blue with sleeve individually via the i-did website.
