It's hard to believe that in the early 2000s, there were no reusable stainless steel bottles in the United States. Plastic bottles were the only option at the time.
In 2004, Klean Kanteen introduced the first BPA-free stainless steel water bottle. We have been a pioneer ever since.
We have inspired countless other companies. And as we look to the future, we want to continue doing this. Because... when it comes to fighting plastic pollution, we have to work together!
Our company was named Klean Kanteen. We launched our first product in 2004. But we didn’t stop there. We continued to innovate and expand our product range, with insulated bottles, food containers and other reusable solutions.
But Klean Kanteen goes beyond the product. We also focused on building a company culture that reflected our values of sustainability, community and adventure.
As a certified B Corp, we are a member of a global movement of more than 3,000 companies. A movement that aims to meet the highest standards of corporate social responsibility.
It is not always easy to say no to investors. But along the way we have always remained a family business that is also owned by our employees .
Do we want to share our profits with organizations we believe in? And do we want to spend a few years developing a groundbreaking, scratch-resistant powder coating? Then we do it! We don't have to compromise. This unique structure gives us complete operational freedom and autonomy.
