Sustainability at Stanley 1913

100+ years of building better.

2025 Impact Report

Creating, building and inventing in a better way for a better life and world started for us in 1913 when William Stanley, Jr. invented the all-steel vacuum bottle. These bottles were more than inventive – they were made to last. Durable, reusable products aren't just part of our sustainability strategy. They're just who we are.

Our Sustainability Pillars
Materials & Design

We've been inventing better ways to build for 100 years – sustainable design and materials are how we work.

Values-Led Sourcing

We choose suppliers who build for tomorrow. People who build things the right way, for the right reasons.
Social Impact

Bold ideas need support. Great communities need investment. We make it a point to do both.

Our Signature Material

Sourcing recycled stainless steel isn't just better for the planet – it's the single most impactful decision our brand can make for what comes next. In 2024, 65% of the materials in our products were recycled content.

Recycled Content

Recycled stainless steel is the most sustainable option for the bottle in your hands. Materials that already lived a full life, now in products like the Tumblers.

Minimal Materials

Less material, lighter bottle, same performance. AeroLight™ technology proves you don't need more to get more – like in the Transit Flip Top Mugs.

Durability

Built for Life isn't just a warranty – it's how we've always made things. Our Vacuum Bottles have kept coffee hot since 1913, and it's still going strong.

Skip the takeout containers, pack what matters. Bring your lunch and utensils in something built to last, like the Food Containers.
