CCC6 Initiative - CTC Stainless Steel Water Bottles




Friday, May 29, 2015

To fight the battle against the never ending stream of millions of plastic water bottles which we use every day and directly throw away, polluting our environment CTC's creative team has made some beautiful Stainless Steel Bottles designs which you will be able to order soon with CCC/CTC logo and a strong visual message to create awareness among your colleagues and friends.

We would also like to introduce CTC Stainless Steel Bottles to promote #NoPlasticChallenge as part of the Chennai Coastal Clean-up awareness campaign. Say NO to Plastic bottles. 



Do you want to carry your own Stainless Steel Water Bottle?

Do you want to carry water in a hygienic container?

Are you want to be part of this awareness campaign on #NoPlasticChallenge by purchasing CTC Stainless Steel Water Bottle?

Do you want to be one of the reasons of polluting the environment by purchasing use and throw type PET water bottles?

Do you know the chemicals used to manufacture the PET bottles?

Do you know the plastic material/Chemicals dissolves in water which we drink?

Do you know out of 5 PET bottles, only one is recycled and rest is thrown into landfill?

Sincere Thanks to Mr.Elanchezhiyan for his great interest on introducing Stainless Steel Water Bottles in CTC and his effort on identifying the vendor for bottles and designer.

The Human Impact: 

Plastic bottles contain Bisphenol A (BPA), the chemical used to make the plastic hard and clear. BPA is an endocrine disruptor 
which has been proven to be hazardous to human health. It has been strongly linked to a host of health problems including certain types of cancer, neurological difficulties, early puberty in girls, and reduced fertility in women, premature labor, and defects in newborn babies – to name a few examples. BPA enters the human body through exposure to plastics such as bottled drinks and cleaning products. It has been found in significant amounts in at-risk groups such as pregnant women’s placentas and growing foetuses.

Tons of Waste: 

Only 1 out of 5 plastic water bottles are recycled contributing to the 3 billion pounds (1,500,000 tons) of plastic bottle waste per year (c’mon people. Who doesn’t recycle nowadays???). Further, the PET 1 bottles cannot be cleaned properly and over time can leech plastic components into the water so it is not recommended that they be reused. PET bottles never really biodegradable and if they are incinerated instead they release toxic fumes.


The change is in your hands now. Let's decide. Get urs soon and get rid of those use and throw PET Water bottles.
