"There's a new collapsible and pocket-sized water bottle in town, and it goes by the name elio. This time, it resembles a leaning structure when it stands, and users can place it horizontally without a liquid spill. When it's unfolded, the container can hold up to 750 ml of liquid, and when it's tucked, users can either put it in their pockets or tie it around their bags as an accessory."
"Surrounding this silicone is a lattice-structured aluminum frame that protects the bottle from tough conditions. When the team says tough conditions, they mean that if people step on elio, toss it in their bags, drop it from tall heights, or put it in other rough situations, it can survive without a tear and bounce right back into its leaning shape. Since the bottle itself is made from BPA-free and food-grade silicone, it is also plastic- and odor-free."
elio is a pocket-sized, collapsible water bottle that stands in a leaning triangular form and can be placed horizontally without spilling. The container expands to hold 750 ml of liquid and collapses small enough to fit in pockets or attach to bags. The design team was led by Max Gunawan and used food-grade, BPA-free silicone to keep the bottle lightweight at around 160 grams. A lattice-structured aluminum frame surrounds the silicone for impact protection and resilience. All parts are designed to be recyclable. The bottle offers swappable body, cap, and handle options, a silicone strap, a one-handed cap, and a wide opening for ice; it is dishwasher safe.
