Reusable Drinkware for #SkipTheStrawDay

Did you know that the fourth Friday of February is #SkipTheStrawDay? Something as simple as a straw may seem harmless, but when you throw away a single-use plastic straw, it will take a whopping average of two hundred years to decompose. Think about that for a minute. Every single straw you have ever thrown away is still sitting in a landfill somewhere, and it will be for many years to come.

With those numbers in mind, it’s obvious we need a more sustainable sipping solution – but what? Let’s face it, some drinks are just better with a straw. Nobody wants to slurp a milkshake or ice-filled soda straight from the side of their cup. It just doesn’t really work. Paper straws are a popular solution, but they tend to disintegrate before you’ve even finished your drink. So, what’s left for those of us who just can’t seem to part with our beloved straws?

Perhaps one of the best ways to combat the straw conundrum is to bring your own reusable containers and straws when you are out and about. Many eco-savvy businesses will happily accept your reusable containers and fill them with your beverage of choice. And you can always prepare your coffee or smoothie at home, too!

In honour of #SkipTheStrawDay on February 23rd, we’re highlighting some of our favourite reusable promo drinkware with built-in straws, so your customers can keep on slurping…sustainably!

Trendy Tumblers

Perfect for your cold water or your iced matcha latte, a good old plastic tumbler with a reusable straw is never a bad idea. The translucent Sunsplash Tumbler is the ideal, no-frills promo product that’ll win your audience over with its clean look and fun colour options – but if you’re looking to really make a splash, you’ll want to check out this tumbler that changes colour when it’s filled with liquid. No matter which one you choose, you’ll find that these simple sippers are practical, stylish, and widely loved.

Water Bottles

When it comes to water bottles, there is an incredible variety of styles to accommodate a wide range of drinking preferences. Spout bottles and squeeze bottles are two straw-adjacent designs that help prevent spills and make for quick and easy sipping on the go. Our Poly-Clean™ 28 Oz. Plastic Squeeze Bottle has bright colors and a minimalistic design that will make your logo stand out wherever it goes.
