Our staff tester Deborah put the Simple Carabiner Sport Bottle, a long time Bulletin Bottle favorite, to the test, and was more than a little impressed. Her favorite aspect of this reusable bottle is that it comes with a carabiner, making it super easy to bring it along on all of her adventures. She also loves its compact size and its secure, screw top lid.
Looking for a single-walled stainless steel bottle that’s a little different, but still classic in styling? Our Spigot Stainless Bottle might be what you’re after! It’s long been a staple on our website, and Deborah recently spent some time using it to find out just why our clients like this bottle.
Metal bottles have been sought-after items for our clients since we launched Bulletin Bottle in 2012. With the introduction of insulated water bottles with uber-long temperature control, we thought we’d see a decline in the popularity of single wall bottles. However, that hasn’t been the case at all, evidenced by the fact that timelessly styled bottles, like this one, are still selling well! Continue reading
When we launched Bulletin Bottle in 2012, we didn’t offer brand name water bottles. Our clients were looking for inexpensive water bottles; something different, but nothing that would rock the boat in terms of budget. The water-bottle-as-accessory thing didn’t really take off until a few years later. Boy, has it ever taken off, so we’re thrilled to introduce the Takeya Originals 18 oz. Insulated Water Bottle to our lineup! Continue reading
Are you looking for a promotional canteen? One that you can put your branding on but that can actually be used for real life expeditions? If so, you likely already have discovered that they’re not at all easy to find. That’s why our Aluminum Canteen is so special. Continue reading
When planning a project, it can be daunting to decide your bottle logos should look like. Should you use your company logo? Design something new? How do you maximize the imprint area and make your message stand out? Did you know that we have a selection of bottles with the capability for a seamless, full color wrap?
Many of our clients have expressed the desire to make their bottle logos fully wrap around. Up until now, the only option was a wrapped design with a gap, usually about ¾”, to avoid smearing and lessen the appearance of slight misalignment. The technology just wasn’t there to craft full wraps with perfect precision. Until now. Continue reading
Did you plan 2019 budgets around the possibility of skyrocketing tariffs? Nope, we didn’t think so. Nonetheless, here we are, midway through the year, with tariffs rocking Chinese imports and driving prices up.
So do you abandon all of your projects due to cost? Pick and choose the critical ones? Perhaps. But there’s another option: choosing USA made water bottles. Continue reading
Planning a wedding can be utterly overwhelming. There are an infinite number of teeny details to cover—flowers, cake, guest seating…the list can be daunting. So pause for a sec and let’s talk about something fun: wedding favors!

From a glass and a Tritan water bottle to custom reusable bags to sunscreen beyond, here are 10 wedding favor gift ideas for even YOUR budget:

Looking for a beautiful bottle with a high perceived value and a modern update? Look no further than our Glass Tumbler with Bamboo Lid. Our sales administrator, Deborah, spent some time using this bottle and had plenty to talk about!
Custom glass tumblers are classic and beautiful. They come in a wide range of styles, and often use silicone protectors to add a pop of color. Deborah loved that this bottle takes that one step further, carrying the color of the silicone sleeve through to the straw hole and the lid’s gasket. And speaking of straws—there’s a stopper on this one. It may not seem like a big deal, but the stopper keeps the Tritan (read: durable!) straw from falling out of the tumbler accidentally! Continue reading
You know how some corporations and municipalities have banned (or are thinking about banning) disposable plastic straws? Yeah, so…about those straw bans. There is definitely more than one side of the story to consider.
Ok, so there’s plastic pollution. That’s a fact. Straws are plastic, and they’re certainly turning up in oceans, lakes, and other waterways. So, for people who want to see humans consume less plastic, straws are a pretty easy target.
Estimates vary as to how much plastic straw pollution is out there. One report suggests they make up more than 7% of the plastics found in the U.S. by piece. There’s also a stat floating around about how Americans use over 500 million plastic straws a day. Know where this came from? A 9-year-old boy’s telephone poll (from 2011). It goes without saying that there’s major scientific uncertainty over THAT number! Continue reading
Recently, I had the awesome opportunity to tour Eimskip, a major transportation company that serves the Northern Atlantic. I was very interested to see how Portland, Maine (our home turf!) has become an integral part of international trade and learn more about how Bulletin Bottle is impacted by businesses like Eimskip.
Eimskip was founded in 1914 and runs a network of 63 offices in 20 countries and operates a fleet of 22 vessels. Not too shabby! Their presence in Portland is large and proud. Continue reading
