Hello, my name is matt and I am an avid coffee drinker and purest at heart. I am passionate about the environment, my food and my country and making life simple again. This said I have created a product that focuses on my passions.
Using the wide mouth mason jar, Sans Bottles has created a glass travel mug or beverage container for any beverage from hot to cold to replace your nalgene or metal bottles. With commercially available($0.50 or less) 16 and 32 oz jars, our lids and sleeves that are available is several options create a pure, drinking container without worries of changing the taste like metal cups or BPA in plastic and will be kept warm or cold for a long time.
Why I am writing here is the idea we have of using these mugs with a deposit/exchange system in coffee shops. Instead of having to rinse out a customer's nasty travel mug they would come into the store with their complete Sans Bottle and their coffee would be poured into a fresh mason jar and exchanged for the one that is currently in the sleeve. Screw on the lid with handle or without and out the door they go, reducing paper cups usage and attracting repeat customers to your store daily. We think this would be a great way of increasing reusable mugs and have launched our company product on kickstarter here
Most importantly we would like to hear some feedback on this idea and its feasibility. Thank you so much and for further information check out: drinksans.com
