Environmental Impact Score
Environmental Impact Score: 7.4 / 10
Sustainability Rating: Very Good
Category Scores
• Material choice — 1.6 / 2
The vessel is copper, a durable recyclable metal, but the materials of the tap and stand, and whether the vessel is lined or coated, are not specified by the supplier.
• Reusability — 2 / 2
Refilled and used every day for years, with nothing to plug in.
• Durability / lifespan — 1.3 / 1.5
A hammered copper vessel should last for many years, but the tap is a moving part and its material is not specified by the supplier.
• Recyclability — 0.8 / 1
The copper vessel is recyclable as scrap metal, but the tap and stand may need separating, and their materials are not specified.
• Biodegradability / compostability — 0 / 1
Copper does not biodegrade, and the tap and stand materials are not specified.
• Renewable / recycled / lower-impact material — 0.5 / 1
Copper is mined and not renewable, and the maker does not state any recycled content.
• Replaces a wasteful product — 0.8 / 1
Can replace bottled water and plastic water dispensers at home, and it needs no power.
• End-of-life disposal — 0.4 / 0.5
The copper vessel can go to a scrap metal recycler, but the tap and stand need separating, and their disposal route depends on materials the supplier hasn't specified.
