Lizzard Flask 1200ml
Durable, reusable hydration – designed for everyday impact
Hydration is a daily habit, which makes it one of the most effective places to reduce waste. The Lizzard 1200ml Flask is designed to replace single-use plastic bottles and takeaway cups with a durable, reusable alternative that fits easily into everyday life.
Built from high-quality stainless steel and designed for long-term use, this flask prioritises function, durability, and simplicity over novelty.
Why we chose it
We chose the Lizzard Flask because it focuses on one of the most important sustainability principles: use it for a long time.
Rather than relying on complex systems or disposable components, the flask is made from 18/8 food-grade stainless steel, a material trusted in kitchens for its safety, durability, and resistance to corrosion. When paired with thoughtful insulation and repairable parts, this creates a product that’s far more likely to stay in use for years, not months.
We also value Lizzard’s South African ownership and stated commitment to reducing plastic waste and packaging impact. Products that are locally designed, widely available, and easy to maintain tend to deliver more real-world environmental benefit than niche alternatives that are hard to access or replace.
This flask isn’t marketed as perfect, and that matters. Its impact comes from consistent reuse, not from extraordinary claims.
Materials & safety
The flask is made from 18/8 stainless steel, a high-grade, food-safe material that is:
- Lead-free and resistant to rust and corrosion
- Safe for hot and cold beverages
- Durable enough for daily use across work, travel, and outdoor activities
The lid is BPA-free, reducing exposure to problematic plastics at points of contact. Stainless steel does not retain flavours easily and does not degrade with repeated use.
Insulation & everyday performance
Thanks to its double-wall vacuum insulation, the Lizzard Flask is designed to:
- Keep hot drinks warm for up to 8 hours
- Keep cold drinks cold for up to 18 hours
This thermal performance makes it more likely to replace disposable coffee cups and bottled cold drinks, increasing its positive impact over time.
Longevity & care
Longevity is where this product performs strongest.
The flask is resistant to punctures, dents, and everyday wear. Components such as silicone O-rings are removable and cleanable, helping maintain leak resistance and extend the usable life of the lid.
With basic care, regular cleaning, avoiding harsh chemicals, and replacing seals if needed this flask can realistically last many years.
At the end of its life, stainless steel is fully recyclable, allowing material recovery rather than disposal.
Environmental impact (in context)
Stainless steel has a higher upfront manufacturing footprint than plastic, but this impact is quickly offset when the flask is used repeatedly in place of disposable bottles and cups.
Over time, a single flask can eliminate hundreds or thousands of single-use items. That’s where the real environmental benefit lies.
Lizzard’s move toward FSC-certified packaging further reduces unnecessary environmental impact beyond the product itself.
Our take
The Lizzard Flask isn’t about radical innovation, it’s about durability, reusability, and access.
If you’re looking for a robust, well-made flask that supports lower-waste habits without overcomplicating things, this is a solid choice. Used consistently, it offers one of the simplest and most effective ways to reduce everyday plastic consumption.
