FPRA 2009 Annual Conference: Just Another Perk for This Year’s Conference Attendees!

This year’s confereFPRA-Bottlence attendees will all receive a 24 oz. stainless steel sports bottle – a safer alternative to plastic. The bottle is environmentally friendly (no plastic bottles in the dump) and toxin free. The bottles are made from at least 50% recycled content and are 100% recyclable. Most shops sell a refillable sports bottle that is constructed from plastic. The problem is that regular plastic drinking bottles leech dangerous chemicals into your beverage. A stainless steel water bottle is toxin-free and doesn’t affect the taste of the beverage stored in it.

When someone is ready to get rid of the stainless steel bottle, it can simply be tossed into the recycling bin with other metal products and melted down to make a future product.

These water bottles are provided by the Kissimmee Utility Authority to help us keep our FPRA Annual Conference as “green” as possible.
