What is BPA?
Bisphenol-A is an ingredient used to make polycarbonate. In recent months, there has been increasing consumer demand for a bottle that is not made with Bisphenol-A (BPA), and CamelBak is proud to introduce BPA-free bottles with the same great properties customers have come to expect from polycarbonate: vibrant color, clarity, durability, dishwasher-safe, and with no residual taste. As of the end of April 2008, the entire CamelBak bottle line will be available in BPA-Free materials in North America.
What are phthalates?
Phthalates (pronounced thal-ates) are a component added to some plastics to make them soft and pliable. None of CamelBak's bottles have ever contained phthalates.
What is the BPA-free Better Bottle made from?
The CamelBak Better Bottle line is made from a new copolyester polymer called Tritan, made by Eastman. It offers the same great qualities that we have come to expect from polycarbonate bottles and is 100 percent BPA-Free. The Big Bite Valve is made of medical-grade silicone for long life and taste-free performance.
About CamelBak
CamelBak is the originator and world leader in hands-free hydration systems. The first CamelBak products proved to be very popular among mountain bikers and motocross riders, because it allowed them to drink without taking their hands off of the handlebars in technical terrain. The product began to cross over into other sports when scientific studies showed athletes drank more fluids and performed better when they wore a CamelBak. Since then, athletes from an ever-growing list of sports and activities use CamelBak hydration systems for their convenience and performance benefits.
In addition to cycling, CamelBak has Hands-Free Hydration systems for hiking, running, snowboarding and skiing. CamelBak?s state-of-the-art packs and hydration systems have benefited athletes, outdoorsmen, and soldiers around the world. While CamelBak has grown tremendously since the early days, one thing hasn't changed: CamelBak still believes in the performance advantage that proper hydration delivers for just about any activity. The privately-held company is headquartered in Petaluma, California.
Sports reviews of CamelBak BPA-Free Better Bottle with Classic Cap
Customer Review: Great buy!!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
Very satisfied, been using it for a few months and still odor-free, working as if it was new.Customer Review: Makes your water reek like a dirty sweat sock
Sport shop rating: 1 Stars
Sure, this bottle is great the first few times you use it. However, despite regular washings, after a couple weeks the entire bottle and its water will reek of moldy, dirty sweat socks after a few hours of storing water. It's disgusting. This continuously happens, despite being washed after each use (not just "rinsed out.") Don't waste your money. I now have to just refill a prior purchased bottle of water, which does not start stinking, unlike this bottle. Horrible!!!Customer Review: nice item...but...

I bought this product a month ago. So far I'm quite satisfied with it's quality.
One thing I want to stress is the this bottle seems not working in hot water, say, boiling water. I see no changes in the inside of the bottle or any special smell, but if you keep some boiling water in the bottle for some days and didn't open it up, finally when you open it the odor is awful. I believe this is just not a hot water bottle.
Customer Review: Nice Bottles

Bought some of these for use at work. They are well built and have a nice loop on top to be able to attach a carabiner or to a backpack. BPA free, but I can't tell too much between the quality difference between plastic with BPA and without. Would purchase again.Customer Review: perfect water bottle!!!!

I bought two of these water bottles 9 months ago. One for me (pink) and one for my husband(grey). I have to say I love it. So easy to clean, no hidden areas to collect bacteria. And keeps water with no leaks and no funny taste. Being BPA free was the main reason I purchased this bottle and the camelbak name. Let me say it has lived up to all of my expectations and more!!!!!
