This weekend I did something I’ve procrastinated about for months — ended years of buying coffee in disposable cups. It’s so fundamentally unnecessary and wasteful to throw away paper and cardboard and plastic all for an Americano that lasts for all of 20 minutes, yet our culture makes it so incredibly easy to indulge in this kind of waste, day-in, day-out.
I love Sigg products, and I’m happy to hear that they’ve been overwhelmed with demand since the Bisphenol-A (BPA) health scare that linked plastic water bottles with breast and ovarian cancer.
So I was delighted to discover that, in addition to water bottles, Sigg also makes travel mugs using the same extruded aluminum manufacturing technique. I’m truly passionate about brand that simply know what they’re good at and execute on it flawlessly regardless of prevailing trends — and Sigg seems to be exactly that kind of brand. Sadly I couldn’t find a mug as sleek and stylish as the “Metro” model pictured here (let’s just say the one I bought looks more than a little middle-aged), but on the other hand it’s refreshing to sacrifice a little style for a lot less waste.
