Anew, the world’s first carbon negative reusable water bottle, has officially launched in the US market. Created to tackle the single-use plastic bottle problem, Anew bottles are entirely plant-based, lightweight, dishwasher safe, and fully recyclable in kerbside bins. Unlike traditional plastic, glass or aluminium bottles, Anew bottles contain no microplastics, no oil-based plastics, and are certified carbon negative without relying on carbon offsets.
Founded in New Zealand and launched in 2023, Anew’s innovative bottles come prefilled with premium alkaline water sourced from a 50,000-year-old artesian aquifer. The bottles retail between $8 and $9.99 USD and are currently available nationwide in Sprouts Farmers Market stores across 22 states, as well as online. An empty version of the bottle for daily refill use will be available online soon.
Anew’s founder and CEO, Jayden Klinac, explains: “This blue bottle of water is just the beginning of a plant-based packaging revolution. We’ve created one of the healthiest and most sustainable bottles in the world and we’re excited to bring this product to American consumers.”
Made from Anew’s proprietary Recircle® biopellet, the bottles are 100% biobased and produced from renewable plant feedstocks that naturally sequester carbon as they grow. For every bottle produced, 0.0765 pounds of CO2e are removed from the atmosphere, verified by a third-party life cycle assessment. Unlike aluminium, glass or conventional plastics—all made from fossil fuels—Anew’s bottles support the circular economy: made from renewable resources, reusable for years, and recyclable.
Anew has also independently verified that its bottles do not shed microplastics, addressing a growing health concern linked to both conventional plastics and even glass packaging.
Currently manufactured in New Zealand, Anew is setting up US production in Los Angeles to further reduce its carbon footprint and meet growing demand.
Klinac, who is personally touring Sprouts stores nationwide to meet customers, adds: “We created Anew so consumers have an affordable, convenient and reusable option for when they need water on the go. These bottles make sustainability simple.”
