FLSK as a sustainable alternative

Imagine: If just 10% of people in Germany replaced their plastic consumption with a reusable drinking bottle, we could save over 300,000 tons of plastic every year.

By purchasing from FLSK, you're among the 10% who do things better. Sustainability starts with FLSK and you.

Why the FLSK drinking bottle is the sustainable alternative

On average, you use around 200 single-use plastic bottles per year—that's more than 16 bottles per month, or a new one almost every other day. This is precisely the problem—but also your opportunity to make a difference.

If you choose a durable stainless steel bottle like the FLSK drinking bottle, you'll save an average of about 160 disposable bottles per year. Over five years, that's about 800 bottles saved. That's enough to overflow a shopping cart. About ten times over.

Now do you see how much you can make a difference? You can easily avoid this enormous amount of plastic yourself. You're not "one of many." You're part of the solution.

And your coffee mug?

Coffee drinking also generates a lot of plastic waste: The average coffee consumption is 169 liters per person per year, and a large portion of this is consumed on the go. Takeaway cups alone generate around 48,000 tons of CO₂ emissions per year in Germany.

On average, 34 disposable cups per person end up in the trash. Doesn't sound like much at first? Think again: In total, that's around 2.8 billion cups and 1.3 billion plastic lids across Germany every year. This amount would fill Berlin's Olympic Stadium more than four times to the brim. Now imagine: The exact same thing happens again next year. And the year after that, too.

On average, you only hold the cup for 15 minutes, leaving a huge pile of trash behind. But you can change that: Turn those 15 minutes into a good 15 minutes, with a cup that stays put.

With the FLSK coffee mug, you avoid this waste and enjoy your coffee just as conveniently as before. And let's be honest: Sustainable enjoyment simply tastes better.
