Lifefactory Water Bottles
Stylish Lifefactory reusable glass water bottles are not only the right choice for anyone concerned about BPA leaking into their drinking water, but also for anyone who likes to see exactly what they're drinking.

Plus a colourful plastic sleeve on these glass water bottles helps prevent breakage. Choose from a variety of colours, two sizes and two tops – the classic screw cap or the newer flip cap spout. The glass is made in Europe, the protective silicone sleeve in the USA.
