Environmental Impact Score
Environmental Impact Score
Environmental Impact Score: 8.0 / 10
Sustainability Rating: Excellent
Category Scores
• Material choice — 1.7 / 2
Raised from solid copper sheet with no plating, coating or inner lining, though copper is mined and its recycled content is not specified.
• Reusability — 2 / 2
Refilled and carried every day for years.
• Durability / lifespan — 1.4 / 1.5
Solid copper lasts for many years, though it is softer than steel and can dent if dropped.
• Recyclability — 0.9 / 1
Copper is widely recyclable as scrap metal, though whether the screw lid has a seal, and what it is made of, is not specified by the supplier.
• Biodegradability / compostability — 0 / 1
Copper is a metal and does not biodegrade.
• Renewable / recycled / lower-impact material — 0.5 / 1
Copper is mined and not renewable, and the maker does not state any recycled content, though it earns some credit as a long-lasting recyclable metal.
• Replaces a wasteful product — 1 / 1
Directly replaces single-use plastic water bottles, with a screw lid the maker describes as leak-resistant.
• End-of-life disposal — 0.5 / 0.5
Essentially a single metal, so it can go to a scrap metal recycler at the end of its life.
Key Sustainability Strengths
• Solid copper with no plating, coating or inner lining
• Replaces single-use plastic water bottles
• Screw lid for carrying
• Recyclable as scrap metal at end of life
Sustainability Limitations
• Whether the screw lid has a seal, and its material, is not specified by the supplier
• Copper is a mined, non-renewable metal, and recycled content is not specified by the supplier
• Not biodegradable
• Made in India and imported to Australia
Overall Assessment
A compact, solid copper bottle with no lining or coating that replaces single-use plastic bottles and can be recycled as scrap metal. Copper is mined rather than renewable, and we've scored recyclability slightly lower because the lid's seal isn't specified.
