Oh, The Places You’ll Go…

With our Everyday Carry Series by your side every step of the way!

We know you have your routine down at home when it comes to eliminating single-use plastic. But when we leave our houses or travel far from home, having to buy bottled water when we can’t find a refill station or grabbing plastic-wrapped to-go food when we’ve run out of snacks from home presents a very stressful situation.

Plastic bottles and food packaging are one of the biggest polluters on the planet, and while efforts to use less and reuse more have been on the rise, 8 million tons of plastic still end up in the ocean every year. That quantity is expected to triple in twenty years. To save our planet, we must go well beyond the three R’s (reduce, reuse, recycle) and work toward eliminating plastics altogether – for our own health and that of our planet.

Our mission at HYDAWAY has always been to support our customers in their sustainable travel adventures. If there’s a way to see the world and lessen our impact on the environment, we’re all over it. But why stop there? Every day we move from one place to the next, so it’s only logical that we’d need a unique way to enjoy to-go food and drinks while on-the-go.

Whether you’re camping in the wilderness, picnicking in the park, or toting your leftovers to work, you need a quality, convenient vessel for your favorite food and drinks. Our Everyday Carry (EDC) Series was designed for exactly that: to allow you to take or make your fuel on the go, wherever you roam.

 

Everyday Carry Collapsible Bowls

These 1-Quart bowls hold all the food you need to fuel your daily adventures. Bring it along on a potluck picnic, use it as convenient camping, or take your breakfast with you on the go when you’re running late in the morning.

Don’t forget about keeping your furry friends hydrated too. Summer temperatures can take a toll on our beloved pets, and this bowl can be used as an anytime-anywhere food and water dish.

One of our favorite ways to use this bowl is when ordering to-go food. If the establishment allows, you can offer your Collapsible Bowl as a replacement for a single-use plastic container or bag. Remember, it’s always better to reuse first, and recycle second! Keep a bowl stashed in your vehicle or pack and never end up in a situation where you need to opt for planet-harming materials.

 

Everyday Carry Collapsible Pints

We love these pint cups as a way to avoid not only a paper cup, but also the plastic lid and straw that inevitably comes with it.

Ask your barista if they’d whip up a cold caffeinated beverage of choice in your reusable cup instead (this sort of practice was put on hold during the pandemic, but many places are comfortable starting it back up).

Summer is also the season of outdoor parties and concerts. Fun for you, not so much for the planet when plastic Solo cups rear their ugly head. Solo cups are made from a type of plastic called polystyrene and aren’t as recyclable as you think. Because polystyrene is derived from petroleum products, this plastic doesn’t decompose. If burned as a way of disposal, they also give off gas that is harmful to humans.

With a Collapsible Pint in tow, you’ll always be able to fill your cup with your favorite summer beverage (be it keg beer or ice tea) and enjoy it guilt-free.

 

Everyday Carry Collapsible Cups

These 12-ounce cups can be used on road trips or in your own backyard and are your best friend at picnics and parties. Designed to also double as a small bowl, you can’t go wrong storing a few of these in your backpack, glove compartment, or even in your kitchen pantry.

Adults, kids, and pets can all get behind this convenient and eco-friendly way to stay hydrated.

 

About Everyday Carry

The items in our new Everyday Carry Series are our most lightweight and portable creations yet. Similar to our signature water bottles and tumblers, Everyday Carry bowls, pints, and cups easily compress into a 1-inch disk, and can be used in a variety of eating and drinking situations.

Crafted from BPA-free, food-grade silicone and a double-wall stainless steel rim that are both non-toxic and durable, EDC products save space in your bag, and expand in an instant to hold food and beverages. Most importantly, they eliminate the use of single-use bottles, to-go cups, and containers.
