SIGG Water Bottle Company is giving $50,000 away... in Returns.
Aluminum bottles become popular when word got out that plastic bottles contained bisphenol-A (BPA), which was linked to hormone changes in the body. After claiming how much safer aluminum bottles were safer, the company SIGG found themselves in a predicament when they admitted earlier models well, contained BPA.
Ever since the news broke out, the company has launched a voluntary exchange program to exchange BPA bottles with a new bottles. As like anyone who has heard about it, customers are trying to get their hands on every safe bottle as they can. The company has a weird way of showing they're taking the exchange seriously by posting in the checkout page that they're investing $50,000 in consumers safety.
The plastic lining inside the bottle as lined with the BPA plastic, but now the SIGG bottles use an 'eco-friendly' liner for their products.

O_O Crazy.
great marketing!
i was planning to get one soon too :)
I don't understand why all the aluminum bottles are designed with nozzles so small. I would like to buy one that I can fit my hand inside-- so I can clean it!
They are good at keeping things cold!
how do you know if your sigg is affected by this?
@iiinfinitesimal@xanga - For information on how to exchange your own bottle, send an e-mail to liners@mysigg.com Information on SIGG's website is no longer working, but if you e-mail them, I'm sure they'll tell you more information about it.
