800ML Steel

Strong and lightweight with 79% recycled materials

Dopper exists to solve the problems caused by packaged water, and the pollution it creates in our world's waters. We do this by getting people to drink tap water and by stopping companies from selling packaged water. When you buy a Dopper bottle for your employees, you buy a mission. With this simple tool your company and your staff contribute to a world in which everybody has access to clean drinking water, and where plastic pollution is a thing of the past. Moreover, our Steel range bottles are designed with sustainability and durability in mind and are made up of 79% recycled materials.


Company/Institution
Dopper
Water is the lifeblood of our planet. We believe it shouldn't be bottled, plasticised and labeled. It shouldn't be imported, exported, taxed. It shouldn't be scarce. But it does. Water is being trashed to the point that we can't do the one thing we're meant to do with it: Drink it, from the tap. A goal that big is not accomplished by changing an individual, it is accomplished by changing the entire system. So we get people to bring and refill their reusable bottle, urge companies to provide and promote tap water and lobby governments to make tap water safe and accessible for all.
