Strip’s partnered with Steklarna Hrastnik to integrate UV-C disinfection, safety controls and efficient power management into a smart bottle cap, creating a self-cleaning glass bottle with up to 15 days of battery life.

Bringing intelligence to a glass water bottle.

Strip’s, with its strong focus on R&D and advanced electronics, has collaborated with Steklarna Hrastnik, renowned for its expertise in top-quality glass products. Together, they have created a smart bottle with a cap that combines cutting-edge technology with a commitment to environmental sustainability.

Key Features:

Optimised disinfection: Automatically adjusts the disinfection time based on water levels for maximum battery efficiency.
User-friendly: Touch-button operation with no need for apps, and clear indicators for disinfection, battery, and hydration.
Automatic self-cleaning: Every 2 hours
UV-C safety: UV-C light only activates when the cap is securely attached, ensuring safe use.
Wireless charging: Conveniently charges with any standard wireless charger.
Long battery life: Up to 15 days of use on a single charge.
Sustainable: Made with 100% recyclable glass, produced in Slovenia. If the glass is damaged or worn, it can be renewed.

How it works:

UV purification: After filling the bottle, simply double-tap to start the disinfection process. The bottle automatically adjusts purification time based on water level, optimising battery performance.
Self-cleaning: The bottle self-cleans every 2 hours using UV-C light to ensure fresh, clean water. The transparent glass allows users to easily check the cleanliness of both the water and the bottle.
Hydration reminder: The user can set their preferred reminder schedule, and the bottle will gently light up to prompt hydration. The smart cap tracks the user’s water intake and reminds them if no sips are taken.

With Steklarna Hrastnik and Strip’s working together, the smart bottle is the perfect combination of advanced technology and eco-friendly design, offering cleaner water, longer battery life, and a more sustainable future.
