Nalgene

Nalgene, renowned for its durable and versatile water bottles, was originally founded in 1949 by chemist Emanuel Goldberg in Rochester, New York. Initially, Nalgene products were designed for laboratory use, but they gained popularity among outdoor enthusiasts for their leak-proof and lightweight qualities. This led to the establishment of Nalgene Outdoor, transforming labware into essential gear for hiking and camping with a focus on high-quality, reusable bottles

Nalgene stands out for custom corporate merchandise due to its iconic, sturdy design and wide array of size and colors options that cater to diverse needs, from outdoor adventures to daily hydration. The brand's dedication to sustainability and practical design makes it an attractive choice for businesses aiming to associate their brand with reliability and environmental consciousness. Moreover, Nalgene's bottles provide a versatile canvas for branding, allowing companies like Patagonia, Surpreme, and Google to create custom co-branded bottles that showcase their corporate logos prominently​

Nalgene offers customization through printing on the front of their bottles. This allows businesses to add their corporate logo or custom design to Nalgene’s range of products, making them an excellent choice for company merchandise. The brand's focus on simplicity and functionality ensures that custom designs enhance the product's appearance while maintaining its practicality and durability​

Nalgene demonstrates a strong commitment to sustainability, notably through its transition to using 50% certified recycled materials in its bottle manufacturing process. This initiative not only promotes the reduction of waste by encouraging reuse but also significantly lowers the environmental impact associated with the production of new plastic. Nalgene's efforts have led to the repurposing of millions of pounds of plastic waste, preventing countless single-use bottles from ending up in landfills. Furthermore, Nalgene actively contributes to improving access to clean water. All Nalgene bottles are manufactured in the United States.
