The New Bottle

The New

The New is a reusable water bottle designed as an alternative to disposable plastic products. The body is made of 304 stainless steel, and the interior liner is made of 316 stainless steel. The conical body supports a comfortable grip for hands of different sizes. The ratio between the lid and the body length is 1 to 8, a proportion inspired by the Vitruvian Man by Leonardo da Vinci. The lid can be lifted with two fingers. The rim is 13.8 mm thick, which makes drinking easy while travelling. The bottle measures 70 by 70 by 250 mm.

The New Bottle by NIO Life was identified as a grand example of industrial design by the A' Design Awards. The New Bottle won the Iron A' Design Award in Bakeware, Tableware, Drinkware and Cookware Design in 2022. The A' Bakeware, Tableware, Drinkware and Cookware Design Award is a highly prestigious international design prize that recognizes exceptional design of pots, pans, cutlery, plates, bowls, glasses, baking dishes, graters and more.
