It’s also made from up to 50 per cent recycled steel and claims to be infinitely recyclable – a great choice for the eco-minded. There are many complications when it comes to recycling, meaning that as little as 20 per cent of the bottle actually gets recycled in the end. Reusable water bottles are also miles better for the environment than single use plastics, so do your bit for the environment and your back pocket with a new water bottle.

Handwash only, it comes with a straw cleaning brush, as well as a ‘healthy pee chart’ to check the colour of your urine.

Although the debate over exactly how much water we should drink every day rages on, this bottle will help you stay hydrated all day.

Available in jewel-bright purple or blue, this bottle looks the part and its green credentials go beyond simply reducing plastic waste, as it’s made from 50 per cent recycled material.

It’s even got a conscience: for every product purchased, a child in need receives safe drinking water for a full school year.Sturdily made, it sits between double-walled aluminium bottles and single-walled plastic in terms of weight, has a sturdy carrying handle and a unique ‘flip, bite, sip’ straw. Biting on the straw opens the sealed end so you can drink from it, which takes a bit of getting used to but means the bottle is spill-proof even when the straw is lifted up from its recess – a godsend for klutzes.

Although it has no straw, it’s nice to drink from – no water was lost during the testing of this bottle while drinking from it or in transit.Remove the black box lid and you find the bottle nestled inside with two choices of lid in black or white. Although it feels heavy-duty, this is a lightweight insulated bottle that could easily be taken on adventures.
