This adds to the overall safety of the bottle because users can clearly see what they are consuming and can close the bottle so liquid won`t spill out. The ridges in the water bottle`s design like in the picture make the bottle more durable. There is usually a logo around the bottle that says the companies logo which is usually written in white or blue like in the picture which often symbolizes clean or pure.
