Tips on Ordering Branded Metal Water Bottles
Aluminium vs Stainless Steel: What to Consider for Your Corporate Metal Water Bottles
Both of these branded metal water bottles have unique characteristics, so here are the key factors to help you choose the right option:
Aluminium Bottles
- Lighter than stainless steel bottles, making them easier to carry.
- Like stainless steel, they do not alter the taste of beverages.
- Corrosion- and rust-resistant, making them ideal for outdoor use or humid environments.
- More affordable compared to stainless steel.
Stainless Steel Bottles
- More durable and hard-wearing than aluminium.
- Some models have internal insulation, helping to maintain the temperature of the contents for longer.
- Like aluminium, they are corrosion- and rust-resistant, do not affect flavour, and are safe for drinks.
- More resistant to dents and impacts.
- Heavier and typically more expensive.
Avoid Using Metal Bottles for These Drinks
Some beverages can react with metal, affecting both the taste and the bottle's longevity. To maintain the quality of your bottles, advise customers and employees to avoid using them for:
- Carbonated drinks: Soft drinks and sparkling water.
- Acidic beverages: Citrus juices and wine.
Printing Techniques to Boost Your Logo’s Visibility
If durability, a professional finish, and a dishwasher-safe logo are your priorities, laser engraving is the best option. Some models even offer 360° laser engraving for an all-around effect.
For brands wanting a coloured logo, screen printing or pad printing is available for designs with up to four colours. Circular screen printing offers a more striking effect, while pad printing is a cost-effective option but less resistant to washing.
For special effects, two additional printing techniques are recommended:
Sublimation: Suitable for white bottles only, allowing for full-colour customisation across a large surface.
Digital printing: The best choice for high-quality photographic designs on your personalised aluminium bottles.
Sustainability Matters: Recycled Metal Bottles
We offer several models made from recycled aluminium or stainless steel. Some, like this chic model.
Recycle Your Bottles at the End of Their Life
Both aluminium and stainless steel are recyclable, but due to their size, they should be taken to a designated recycling centre rather than a standard bin.

Frequently Asked Questions About Corporate Metal Water Bottles
Why give metal water bottles as gifts?
To start with, they are a practical and personalised item that we use almost daily, as staying hydrated is essential. They are also easy to carry, especially the smaller models with a carabiner or strap. Additionally, they are made from durable materials that can be recycled and reused, making them an eco-friendly choice. These bottles are resistant to impacts, help maintain the temperature of liquids, and offer excellent printing opportunities or engraving your logo.
When are these bottles dishwasher-safe?
Aluminium and stainless steel bottles are dishwasher-safe only if they are laser engraved, as this method is highly resistant to wear. For all other printing methods, hand washing is recommended to ensure longevity. After washing, it is best not to close the bottle immediately but to allow it to dry completely. Regular cleaning is advisable, and if the bottle has not been used for a while, it should be washed before refilling.
What printing method do you recommend for branded metal water bottles?
If you prefer a large, eye-catching print, single-colour circular screen printing is an excellent option. However, if your logo has multiple colours, pad printing is the best choice, allowing for up to four colours (depending on the model). If you are looking for durability and a more formal, professional finish, laser engraving is the recommended method. As previously mentioned, laser engraving is dishwasher-safe and has the added benefit of allowing you to personalise bottles with individual employee names. For more details, contact customer service to check which models offer this option.
Do aluminium bottles keep drinks hot or cold?
Not particularly. Aluminium on its own has limited insulating properties when it comes to maintaining the temperature of beverages. However, if you need metal bottles that can keep drinks hot or cold for longer, we recommend checking out our range of branded thermal bottles.
