Best Premium Drinkware Brands
Getting your promotional marketing strategy right can optimise your business growth, and creating products that reflect your brand ethos and build a connection with your target demographic is the first step. We know that consumers love promotional products that are both practical and stylish, and that sustainability is the key to success. Designing a range of products that tick these boxes will improve your outcomes and spread your brand logo organically.
Here at Connect Promotions, we have spent many years developing our approach, understanding what works in promotional marketing and – crucially – what doesn’t. We know that partnering with a premium brand can bring a whole new dimension to your promotional gifting strategy, and our premium drinkware brand partners provide an excellent opportunity to do this. Let’s find out why…
Drinkware in Your Promotional Marketing Range
Drinkware is an excellent choice for your promotional marketing range due to its universal appeal and the diverse range of options you can customise. From sports bottles to reusable coffee cups, you’ll find sleek, practical designs that will be used every day by your gift recipients, and your brand name will benefit from the association with the premium brand you choose to partner with.
Drinkware works well as part of an employee reward and recognition system, since every young professional knows the value of top-quality, versatile drinking bottles and cups. They also make a great addition to swag boxes for your new employees or a practical conference giveaway. Loyal clients will also be impressed by the gift of a premium brand drinking bottle or reusable tumbler, and you can make good use of these at corporate events and training days.
Premium Drinkware Brands
Quality matters, and the premium drinkware brands we work with are committed to creating the very best reusable drinking bottles and cups. We’ll look at our three best premium drinkware brands and explore how a partnership can help you to take your business to the next level.
Stanley Sustainable Drinkware

The Stanley reusable drinkware brand has been synonymous with top-quality drinkware for many years, and outdoor enthusiasts will know why. Stanley first identified the need for a reliable solution to keep drinks warm in 1913, creating a vacuum-insulated bottle that explorers and adventurers could rely on. Campers and walkers have depended upon Stanley products for over a century, and today the iconic Stanley style has seen their Stanley Quencher H2.O Tumbler become a must-have item across the globe.
Stanley is committed to sustainability, offering a vital alternative to single-use plastic or cardboard drinkware and ensuring that its packaging and shipping methods are as sustainable as possible. This is great news for your business, since consumers are known to value sustainable products over other options, and you can improve your own green credentials by working with companies such as this, who have been embracing sustainable product development for more than one hundred years.
Every Stanley product comes with a Built for Life lifetime warranty, so you can be sure of the quality and durability of your Stanley drinkware, and this means that including a Stanley cup or bottle in your promotional marketing range will ensure your brand is associated with longevity and excellence. If you are an outdoor brand or you are running a campaign online or setting up a corporate day, you will find that the Stanley catalogue, which includes options such as the Stanley Classic Camp Mug and the Stanley Classic bottle, is an ideal promotional product partner to turn heads for all the right reasons.
CamelBak Drinkware Designs

CamelBak reusable drinkware was born out of a drive to make it easier to get essential hydration on the go, as the first hydration pack was created in 1989 by Michael Eidson, an emergency medical tech who would go on to found CamelBak. He constructed his device from an IV bag, suspended under his bike jersey in a sock, and used a hose to stay hydrated throughout the Hotter ’N Hell 100 bike race. CamelBak’s subsequent development of the hydration pack took this practical innovation and blended it with seamless style to create the perfect solution for cyclists and sportspeople, and today their range includes an impressive selection of travel tumblers and camp mugs made with the same principles.
We love the sleek and stylish designs that CamelBak have created for their range of tumblers and vacuum insulated bottles, and they have even introduced a fun factor into reusable drinkware with their vacuum insulated cocktail shaker and 750ml water/wine bottle. This makes them an excellent partner of choice for corporate events and occasions, and you can rely on their quality and reputation to deliver every time.
Hydroflask: Reusable, Refillable Drinkware
The Hydroflask brand is all about finding solutions for busy people, providing hydration on the go at work, in the gym and during leisure time. These gorgeous bottles and tumblers are ergonomically designed to feel great to hold, and they are seriously functional, with leakproof technology, flex lids and wide tops for the ultimate convenience.
Hydroflask is committed to creating reusable, refillable and reliable products, and you’ll align your brand with these practical, ethical values when you partner with them. These are high-end, stylish drinkware products that offer great value, so they’re ideal for corporate giveaways, new employee swag boxes and employee reward schemes. The innovative range of travel tumblers and bottles has options for everyone, and you can customise your selection to ensure that your brand message is tailored for maximum brand reach.
