Sustainable water bottles printed for Boat Bike Tours
Boat Bike Tours has been organizing special bike-boating vacations through the Netherlands, Flanders, Germany and France. Every year they welcome more than 20,000 guests from all over the world aboard their ships. During these trips, relaxation, being active and comfort come together, with increasing attention to sustainability in all choices made. A well-organized trip is in the details. Especially on the road, where practical solutions make all the difference. This is why Boat Bike Tours has partnered with Retulp for many years for sustainable sports water bottles that fit seamlessly with their way of traveling.
Sustainable sports bottles as part of the trip
At Boat Bike Tours, every day starts with a full breakfast on board. Then guests get on their bikes for routes carefully mapped out along villages, towns and beautiful sights. A water bottle is provided for each guest. This is filled with tap water and comes standard during the trip. On the way we regularly stop, sometimes on a terrace, but often in places where there are no facilities. Especially then a good water bottle is indispensable. The cycling guides actively point out water taps to guests so that the water bottles can be easily refilled. Thus, the use of reusable drinking bottles becomes a logical and natural part of the day.
Water bottles that are really used
The water bottles used by Boat Bike Tours are completely tailored to their brand and use. They are printed with their own design, perfectly matching the organization's look and feel and enhancing the experience of the trip. On each water bottle there is space to write a name. Guests thus instantly personalize the water bottle, which ensures that it will continue to be actively used throughout the trip. In many cases, the water bottle is taken home afterwards as a memento of a special trip. This creates a practical and recognizable solution that contributes to fewer disposable plastic bottles.
Bio bottles: biodegradable, BPA-free and produced in the Netherlands.
The choice for these organic water bottles is deliberate. The water bottles are biodegradable, fully recyclable, BPA-free and produced in the Netherlands. Moreover, they are dishwasher safe, which provides extra convenience during intensive travel.
Not all bottles disappear into the guest's suitcase at the end of the trip. Some stay on board and get a second life. At Boat Bike Tours, they encourage the crew to carefully clean and re-cap leftover water bottles so they can be reused. This way of working shows how Boat Bike Tours handles materials: conscious, practical and focused on extending their life.
Why did they choose Retulp?
Within Boat Bike Tours, sustainability is not a separate project, but an integral part of the organization. A special team deals with making conscious choices in everything that is purchased and used. Whether it's clothing, panniers or on-board amenities, everything is critically examined. The collaboration with Retulp and the choice to have organic water bottles printed fits this seamlessly. It is a solution that is not only sustainable, but also used daily and visible to every guest.
