Stay Sixty is more than just a drinks bottle. It is a statement against the 50 million barrels of oil used annually to pump, process, transport, and refrigerate single-use bottled water. With 10% of the world's manufactured plastic ending up in the ocean, the Stay Sixty bottle offers an eco-friendly alternative. By refilling a Stay Sixty bottle, users contribute to reducing the planet's plastic waste.
The design's unique properties set it apart from other refillable bottles. The double-walled design keeps drinks fresh and prevents condensation, while the unique removable base aids in cleaning and filling. This feature allows the bottle to be filled easily with ice cubes, fruit, powder drinks, or smoothies. Most importantly, the removable base ensures quick and effective cleaning, a crucial factor in extending the product's lifespan.
Stay Sixty is made from premium food-grade stainless steel, with all components being BPA free. It is coated in high-quality rubberised matte paint, giving it a great feel in the hand. The bottle measures 238 x 70 mm and holds 500ml. It is packaged in a color-coordinated postal tube, reflecting the brand's commitment to style and sustainability.
The design was the result of a challenge set by the founders of Stay Sixty to Two Create Studio. The goal was to design a refillable bottle that was both functional and appealing enough to encourage consumers to stop buying plastic drinks bottles. The bottle needed to be versatile, looking and functioning well in any environment from the gym to the office. It also needed to be environmentally sound and made of materials that are both healthy and sustainable.
Stay Sixty is a testament to the power of design in promoting sustainability and healthier lifestyles. The brand name itself is inspired by the fact that the human body should stay 60% hydrated. By refilling a Stay Sixty bottle, users not only help rid the planet of wasteful and energy-consuming plastic bottles but also ensure their bodies stay properly hydrated.
The Stay Sixty bottle is a shining example of how design can contribute to societal wellbeing. Its award-winning design is not just aesthetically pleasing, but also highly functional and environmentally friendly. It truly embodies the defining aesthetics of an era, advancing the boundaries of art, science, design, and technology, and making the world a better place.
