1. The water filter bottle purifies your water
There are different types of water bottles in the world, stainless steel bottles, single wall bottles, glass bottles, plastic bottles like Tupperware, etc.
But there is also a special, practical bottle with a filter: the filter bottle. The advantage of the filtering bottle is that it allows you to drink any water, wherever you are. The filter acts and retains the various substances that it is better to avoid ingesting.
But be careful, you have to check the quality of the filter. This is not always easy to do, as brands are not always transparent about their filter studies. Relying on the best-known brands that have been working on water filtration for decades seems to be a good attitude towards water.
Most of the time, these are simple carbon filters that remove heavy metals and chlorine. This is not always enough! It is a first step but viruses and bacteria are still present. A better quality filter will guarantee purer water.
2. The filtering bottle is better for the environment
Yes, it may seem dubious to some that a plastic bottle is good for the environment.
But this has to be seen in the context of disposable plastic bottles. Every year, 89 billions plastic bottles are thrown away.
A single, sturdier plastic bottle that can be reused for even just 1 year can avoid all those disposable bottles.
To give you a reality check, in 1997 a 7th continent was discovered. It is a continent composed exclusively of plastic and micro plastic waste produced by human activity. It covers a surface area of about 1,6 million km2 and is growing continuously.
It is trapped by the currents of the sea and in the last 40 years its density has increased 100 times.
In reality, there are 5 continents of plastic in our oceans, formed because of our polluting activities, ocean currents and the rotation of the Earth.

It is therefore unavoidable to be careful with our daily consumption of plastic. Let's eliminate what can be eliminated. In this respect, the filtering bottle is an excellent solution for those who are looking for filtered water that is safe and tastes good.

3. The BRITA water bottle is economical
A BRITA water bottle costs €16, the filter is changed after about 60 litres of filtered water, which is equivalent to 60 plastic bottles of 1 litre each costing €0.55. In total, these 60 bottles of water, your monthly consumption, will cost you €33.
In the first month you already save 17€. Pretty interesting, isn't it?
In the following months, you only have to replace the filter, which costs around €4/filter, and there you go again with 60 litres!
Each month, you save 29€. It's up to you...

4. The BRITA water bottle for your hikes
Besides the environmental and economic advantages of jugs and bottles, there is another argument to put forward, namely the lightness of the bottle.
It is easily transportable and convenient to put in your hiking bag or on a shopping trip. It saves you from buying unnecessary plastic bottles during the day. More and more public places are offering water fountains for filling bottles.

The bottle is filtering, which allows you, if you have any doubt about the water flowing from a fountain, spring or river, to ensure the removal of impurities and many chemicals.
But beware, the filter does not eliminate viruses and bacteria. To find out more about this type of filtration, check out our blog tip " how to turn undrinkable water into drinking water? ».
