Introduction to Hydro Flask
Hydro Flask is an American company based in Bend, Oregon that specialises in double wall vacuum insulated stainless steel bottles and food containers. Founded in 2009, Hydro Flask has become one of the most popular and trusted brands for insulated drinkware and is known for keeping beverages cold for up to 24 hours or hot for up to 12 hours.
Some key things that set Hydro Flask apart are:
Hydro Flask offers an extensive range of drinkware including water bottles, tumblers, mugs, coffee flasks, beer and wine growlers, as well as food flasks. They come in a wide variety of sizes, mouth openings, caps, and lids to suit different needs.
Hydro Flask Water Bottles
Hydro Flask's water bottles are their flagship offerings, coming in a choice of standard and wide mouth openings. Their unique TempShield insulation technology makes these water bottles excellent at regulating both cold and hot water temperatures for up to 24 hours cold and 12 hours hot.
They have ergonomic, powder coated carry straps for easy portability. The water bottles also feature a leak-proof Flex Cap lid designed to prevent spills. Popular sizes include 12oz, 18oz, 21oz, 24oz, 32oz and 64oz capacities. The 21oz standard mouth and the 32oz wide mouth bottles are among Hydro Flask’s top selling water bottles.
These water bottles are great for keeping water cold for hikes, playgrounds, beach days or packing in lunchboxes. The larger 32oz and 64oz sizes are ideal for desk hydration and reuse all day long. The wide mouth design allows you to add ice cubes easily as well.
Hydro Flask Insulated Bottles
In addition to their water bottle range, Hydro Flask produces insulated bottles for coffee, beer, wine, spirits, soda, and other beverages. Available in both standard and wide mouth options, these specialty drink bottles utilise Hydro Flask’s proprietary vacuum insulated TempShield technology to maintain temperatures optimally.

In addition, they produce insulated soda and spirits bottles, customisable with names or monograms. With such a versatile range, Hydro Flask truly delivers insulation for all kinds of drinks!
Hydro Flask Stainless Steel Bottles
At the core of every Hydro Flask drinkware is their pro-grade stainless steel construction. They only use durable 18/8 stainless steel which contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel for enhanced corrosion resistance. It also lacks the metallic taste imparted by inferior steel bottles.
The FDA-approved food-grade stainless steel does not retain or transfer flavours either. It is also BPA-free and phthalate-free for worry-free usage. No matter how much wear and tear it goes through, you can always be assured of no leaching from a Hydro Flask stainless steel bottle.
Double wall vacuum insulation combines with high-quality stainless steel to create resilient, sweat-free exterior that does not mark or slip easily. Dropping these bottles frequently only results in minor dents and scratches rather than breaks or leaks. Hydro Flask stainless steel bottles deliver insulation you can rely on in all environments.
Hydro Flask Double Walled Bottles
The key to unparalleled insulation in Hydro Flask's range of drinkware lies in their unique double walled construction. There are two stainless steel walls in every Hydro Flask bottle with a vacuum sealed between them.
This vacuum insulation minimises temperature transfer for long-lasting hot and cold beverage temps. Their TempShield technology further boosts insulating performance with a reflective powder coat layer that deflects sunlight.
The double wall vacuum insulation makes their bottles sweat-free and safe to handle even when filled with icy cold water or piping hot coffee. It prevents condensation forming on the outside. This insulation works in all environments - keeping drinks cold even in hot conditions and preventing freezing in cold temps when carrying hot drinks.
Hydro Flask Leak Proof Lids
Having great insulation is not useful if your drinkware does not have a secure, leak-proof lid. That is why Hydro Flask has designed interchangeable leak proof lids and caps that tightly seal their bottles shut.
The Flex Cap lid snaps tightly into place to make a watertight seal. Its flexible soft top allows you to drink easily without removing the whole lid. It is compatible with their wide mouth bottles.
The sports cap Twist lid creates an airtight seal through threaded attachment. Drink simply by pushing a button to open up the top. Wide mouth bottles are compatible with this leak proof cap.
Hydro Flask also offers simple twist-on drinking lids for their coffee and tumbler flasks along with gasket sealed caps for growlers. Their lids are also interchangeable so you can customise drinking convenience.
Hydro Flask Standard Mouth vs Wide Mouth
When shopping for a Hydro Flask bottle, you get to choose between two mouth openings - standard and wide mouth. This decision impacts drinking comfort and accessibility into the bottle.
Standard mouth bottles have a smaller opening of 1.125 inches. Made for sipping rather than gulping water, it offers controlled flow. Straws and ice cubes can however be challenging to insert. Ideal for Hot and Cold Beverages.
Wide mouth Hydro Flask bottles have a wider 2.125 inch opening. This design is optimised for easy filling of ice cubes, cleaning with a brush, and quick hydration when gulping water. Provides faster drinkability. Great for Cold Beverages.
So in summary, standard mouth Hydro Flask bottles excel at regulating sip-by-sip drinking whereas wide mouth bottles are better for conveniently replenishing thirst quickly and accommodating ice. Consider key usage when deciding.
