What We Do
At Cirkul, we are transforming the pillars of Modern CPG with a mission to make a healthier world by helping people enjoy drinking more water! And it all begins with a reusable product, end-to-end US-based manufacturing, and a digital-first model.
In 2016 we identified the opportunity to develop an innovative beverage delivery system that would make it easier for the average consumer to drink more water. Our reusable water bottle features cartridge technology that makes drinking more water delicious, fun, and personalized!
Our technology is also disrupting bottled drink distribution. We have saved over 250M plastic bottles since launching in 2018 and our cartridge technology dramatically reduces the shipping weight, volume, and plastics used by traditional bottled beverages.
Here at Cirkul we are reinventing CPG, while building a business that is centered on consumer health, personal choice, and environmental sustainability. If taking care of yourself while taking care of the planet sounds good to you, maybe you should join us! https://drinkcirkul.com/pages/careers
