We’re busier than ever before, which means there’s little room in our lifestyles for menial tasks like thoroughly cleaning our reusable water bottles. With the latest water bottle technology however, you no longer have to waste your time on such things! Designer and manufacturer LARQ has been busy creating the next generation of water bottles.

The company has used the latest technology to transform the way people access drinking water. The resulting bottle is the world’s first self-cleaning design. In this blog post, we shine a spotlight on the latest water bottle technology, which puts water purification at the heart of the drinking experience.

Fresh, clean and odour-free 24/7

LARQ bottles aren’t just great to look at – the LARQ store may feature just one design but it’s available in several fashionable colours. They contain world-first technology that keeps your bottle fresh, clean and odour-free around the clock. The digitally enhanced system self-cleans automatically every two hours to ensure any water in your bottle remains fresh.

Purification is available at the touch of a button, with pure water accessible in just 60 seconds. In this short time, LARQ’s UV-C LED technology eliminates up to 99.9999% of contaminants. Its chemical and mercury free purification technology is powered by a rechargeable lithium-polymer battery and can also be connected via MicroUSB.

Great for hot and cold drinks

The world’s first self-cleaning water bottle isn’t restricted to storing just cold drinks. Thanks to its BPA-free, electropolished stainless steel structure, hot and cold beverages can be stored effectively. Cold drinks stay cold for up to 24 hours. Find more insulating water bottle designs here.

Made for adventure

For adventurers looking to take their LARQ bottle on the road, its built-in purification system is a real highlight. As We Who Roam details however you do need to exercise some caution when filling up with water from natural sources:

“When filling this bottle from natural sources, water should be clear to the eye and have no heavy sediment. Sediment prevents UV light from evenly penetrating bacteria filled water.  This advice goes for all water purification systems without an actual filter involved.”

Built to last

The main advantage of investing in a reusable water bottle, even at this high price tag (the LARQ water bottle currently retails at £95), is that you save money and resources when compared to buying single-use plastic water bottles. With the use of technology, you may think that LARQ’s self-cleaning features can only be enjoyed for a short time, but no.

More than 100,000 self-cleans can take place before parts require replacement. That means that your LARQ self-cleaning bottle will last for 22 years in total.

The verdict

A LARQ water bottle is by no means budget-friendly, but it is an investment. The design is long lasting and will serve you well for more than two decades before any maintenance is required.

In the meantime, you can reap all the rewards of its self-cleaning and purification technology. Better yet, you’ll spend no time and spare no thought for water bottle cleanliness whilst enjoying a super-pure, taste sensation.
