WE ARE 24BOTTLES Company Profile
HYDRATION BY DESIGN
“We think that good aesthetics can be a lever to convince people adopting healthy behaviours and lifestyles.� Giovanni Randazzo and Matteo Melotti founders of 24Bottles
OUR MISSION 24Bottles is the Italian design brand born in 2013 with the aim of reducing the impact of disposable plastic bottles on the planet and our lives. The idea comes from the search for the most convenient and functional solution to meet the need to hydrate in a way healthy, elegant and ecological day by day. The concept is to create useful and functional objects that make the world a more pleasant and less polluted place. At 24Bottles we believe that good design can change things for the better and can help people improve their health and quality of life as well as their look, in an environmentally friendly way. Our focus is to combine form and function in order to offer uniquely lightweight collections of bottles and coordinated accessories, so as to foster a more sustainable and comfortable lifestyle, while keeping personal style in check. As a company we strive everyday to reduce our impact on the environment. 24Bottles has also embarked on an ambitious program to achieve Carbon Neutrality, with the aim of eliminating its carbon footprint.
BECAUSE WE CARE WE CARE ABOUT THE PEOPLE Envisioning and providing the best designs for our products means to us that we care about the people. We put the People at the center of our work: from the research behind our authentic designs, the study of ergonomics and usability to provide the best drinking experience, the attention to detail, as well as the research for the best quality materials, up to the involvement of local people taking care of our forest, enjoying the fruits of their work.
WE CARE ABOUT THE PLANET We chose to reduce the environmental impact of our business by offsetting all the CO2 emissions coming from the life cycle of our stainless steel water bottles, making them thoroughly carbon neutral. Every aspect of the product has been measured and then compensated through the forest we created. Oxygen, this is the name we gave our forest, is a big green lung made of thousands of trees spread in 5 different countries, from Italy to Mexico and Nepal, allowing us to give back a cleaner air while helping the people who work there build their own business in harmony with nature.
24Bottles is a brand made of men and women working every day to drive a positive change, envisioning a better and greener future for the generations to come.
WHY 24BOTTLES?
Our aim is to combine form and function in order to offer uniquely lightweight collections of bottles and accessories, so as to foster a more sustainable and comfortable lifestyle, while keeping personal style in check. 24Bottles merges urbanity, simplicity and grace in a range of products that are all linked by the theme of lightness.
