Why We Love Ocean Bottle

In a world drowning in plastic, Ocean Bottle offers a bold, beautiful solution. This award-winning B Corp isn’t just making reusable drinkware—it’s building a global movement to stop ocean-bound plastic, empower coastal communities, and redefine what branded merchandise can do. For companies looking to align their swag with sustainability and purpose, Ocean Bottle delivers impact you can measure—and a story you’ll be proud to tell.

A Bottle With a Mission

Every Ocean Bottle sold funds the collection of 11.4 kg (25 lbs) of ocean-bound plastic—the equivalent of 1,000 plastic bottles in weight. That plastic is collected by local workers in vulnerable coastal communities, who are paid fair wages and supported with access to healthcare, education, and financial inclusion.

To date, Ocean Bottle has helped prevent over 23 million kg of plastic from entering the ocean, supporting more than 8,700 collectors across hundreds of sites globally. [oceanbottle.co]

This isn’t just cleanup—it’s systemic change.

Design That Performs and Inspires

Ocean Bottles are engineered for everyday use and built to last:

• Made from recycled stainless steel, BPA-free plastic, silicone, and ocean-bound plastic—with a minimum of 67% recycled materials.
• Double-wall vacuum insulation keeps drinks hot for 6+ hours and cold for 18+ hours, depending on the model.
• Modular and repairable with free replacement parts for life and a 10-year warranty.

NFC Smart Chip Enabled

Breaking through barriers, Ocean Bottle’s have an NFC-enabled smart chip, that allows users to track their impact via the Ocean Bottle app, where each refill funds the collection of 5 more plastic bottles.

Whether you’re gifting employees, clients, or event attendees, Ocean Bottle offers a premium product with a powerful message.

Branded Merchandise That Makes a Statement

Ocean Bottle’s co-branding program lets companies personalize bottles with:

• Laser engraving (from 48 units) or full-color printing (from 120 units)
• Pantone color matching (from 3,000 units) for brand consistency
• Custom packaging that tells your sustainability story
• Impact dashboards and certificates to track and share your plastic collection results

Brands like Goldman Sachs, UBS, The North Face, and PANGAIA have partnered with Ocean Bottle to create meaningful merchandise that reflects their values and engages their audiences.

Social Impact at Scale

Ocean Bottle is a Certified B Corp with a 2024 score of 107.6, well above the certification threshold of 80. They are also a founding partner of Ocean Co., a platform that supports five UN Sustainable Development Goals and provides fully traceable plastic collection and community support.

To date, Ocean Bottle has injected millions of pounds into collection communities and is on track to prevent 7 billion plastic bottles from entering the ocean by 2025.

• Authentic sustainability backed by data and transparency
