Vans Warped Tour

It's a very different world today than in 2004 when we sold our first Klean Kanteen. Seven short years later, the idea of durable, safe reusable bottles has taken firm hold, and finally provides a meaningful counterpoint to single-use containers and even cheap plastic reusables. Our goal is simple: to provide affordable, safe, healthy, products that encourage health, sustainability and environmental awareness.The Basics. We introduced the world's first BPA-free metal hydration bottle in 2004. The grass roots following of our products and company exploded in 2008 when public outcry led to national bans of BPA-laden, polycarbonate containers. Today Klean Kanteen continues to lead through innovation and example, bringing new products to market that replace plastic with safe, long-life cycle alternatives. The new Reflect Kanteen eliminates paint and plastic altogether, raising the bar once again.Our Parent Company Is Our Dad. We are a family business based in Chico, California. We don't manufacture our famous bottles alongside cheap plastic products. Our core values regarding health, sustainability and the environment are deeply held, and our thoughtfully produced products are all designed to foster change. Our tremendous success to date has only redoubled our efforts to explore new alternatives to plastic where stainless steel can offer superior performance and durability.Partnerships. Klean Kanteen collaborates with and supports dozens of organizations working to protect people and our planet. Our network of friends stretches across the country and around the globe, and includes everything from tiny hometown environmental education programs to nationally-acclaimed leaders in advocacy for health and environmental stewardship, music festivals, and private companies known worldwide for their conscientious approach to doing business.
