Describe your products in 3 words. collapsible, fashionable, reusable How did you come up with the idea for this product? que Bottle started from a passion for both music and travel. Co-founders Jean and Kevin traveled all over the world to experience the next hot music festival, but soon realized how much plastic waste accumulated at the venues and grounds after the shows. People were buying so many plastic bottled waters despite expensive prices and environmental harm out of convenience and a lack of suitable travel bottle alternatives. Current bottles were either too bulky to travel with or too ugly and cheaply-made, in the case of foldable plastic flasks. So they decided to solve this problem by making a bottle that would be both functional and good-looking. What makes your product special? que Bottles are the only collapsible water bottles that are functional and fashionable. Their unique spiral design compresses the bottles into half-size without compromising good looks. What has been the best part of your experience? Creating something from scratch merely out of our passion for music and travel, that also feeds to the market needs and more importantly, solves a real problem in a very unconventional way.
