WAKEcup has launched an innovative self-cleaning, ultra violet light water bottle. The innovative UV-C technology in the lid cleans the inner surfaces of the bottle by eliminating bacteria, viruses and mould.
Cleaning is activated by a click of a button (taking just three minutes), with power from a USB rechargeable Lithium battery (and a waterproof MicroUSB connector). Besides everyday use, the bottle is ‘perfect for camping and for when you don’t know about the quality of water you could be drinking’.
For every product sold during the UK’s lockdown, WAKEcup has been donating one bottle to a doctor, nurse or care worker in the NHS, as a ‘thank you’ for their critical efforts on the frontlines of the Coronavirus pandemic, as well as donating 10% of the profits from every sale to the Marine Conservation Society.
Meamwhile Asobu (from Ad-N-Art) has launched UV Light Purification Bottle, plus Copper Lined bottles, which are reportedly effective in slowing down viral distribution. . Roy Kryksman, Asobu’s vice president of sales and marketing states: “It makes our bottles not only a fashionable accessory to have, but an efficient utility to hold nowadays. “
