*US-based Kor Water has launched the Kor One: a reusable water bottle designed to “make a real difference”. *

The company believes the new bottle will “elevate the hydration experience” while offering “conscientious consumers an elegant alternative to disposable bottled water”.

Billed as an iconic design which embodies the natural beauty of blown glass, the bottle is made from Eastman Tritan copolyester, a new plastic which offers durability without Bisphenol-A.

The ergonomic design with integrated handle and thumb release cap enables one-handed operation. The 750ml capacity is suitable for all environments.

Kor Water founder Eric Barnes revealed: "We sought to create the perfect reusable water bottle, where design inspires, personal heath triumphs and sustainability prevails. We believe the Kor One is effective on all three counts.

“We're passionate about the importance of clean water – to human health and to the health of our planet. We also believe in the power of design to inspire and motivate. Change requires a complete redesign of the hydration experience. We call it Water ReDesigned and this product is just the beginning,” he added.
