THE PATAGONIA MAUI KITE & WING FEST IS A BYOB EVENT
Bring Your Own Bottle!
Don't forget to bring your favorite reusable bottle to the beach and remember to keep yourself hydrated all day under the sun. Our Beach is our playground and our home, with this initiative we strive to lessen the amount of single-use plastic ending up in our waters.

It’s hard to imagine that back in the early 2000s you couldn’t buy a reusable, stainless steel water bottle in the United States. Plastic was pretty much your only option. When we sold the first BPA free stainless steel bottles in 2004, we figured a few folks might be into them.

Built with Love:
We’ve always been more comfortable sitting around a campfire than a boardroom table, more at home at the beach than the corporate treadmill. So how did we end up launching a global company and starting a revolution?

Today, reusable water bottles and coffee mugs are everywhere. Klean Kanteen has become an international brand and has inspired dozens of other companies to make reusable stainless steel products. We don’t mind. When it comes to kicking plastic, we’re all in this together.
Along the way, we’ve remained a family and employee-owned company. Turning down investor dollars isn’t always easy, but the freedom to stay true to our principles is worth it. If we want to share our profits with organizations we believe in, we can (and do). If we want to spend a few years developing a ground-breaking nontoxic, chip-resistant powder coat finish, we can (and did).

From the very beginning, Klean Kanteens have been built with love— the love of adventure, the love of conserving wild places, and the love of replacing single-use plastic.

We are excited to sponsor this year’s event once again as we know the audience in attendance appreciate and find our products useful in their everyday lives. They also care about the environment in which they work and play, the ocean. At Klean Kanteen, protecting our ocean by eliminating single use plastic is one of our four pillars of concentration in our charitable giving through 1% For the Planet. By providing reusable solutions at the event, we hope to help attendees make conscious decisions in their daily lives about eliminating single use items.
