Lotus Design Glass Water Bottle neoprene cover • water structuring • programmed glass • volume 0.5 l
Lotus Design Glass Water Bottle (500 ml) is not an ordinary glass bottle. The key difference lies in the material: FLASKA uses patented “programmed” glass with Glass & Vibe technology, which according to the manufacturer is designed to “revitalise” water within a few minutes (they recommend waiting 5 minutes and shaking the water).
In practice, users most often describe a smoother, more balanced taste, even when using tap water – and this is precisely why FLASKA is priced differently from standard glass bottles. The neoprene sleeve with the “Lotus” design improves grip, feels comfortable to hold and enhances the overall appearance of the bottle; the wide mouth makes filling easier, and the wooden cap ensures secure closure. The bottle is not dishwasher safe.
Lotus Design Glass Water Bottle – Flaska
The Lotus Design Glass Water Bottle made from European glass is a practical choice for older children at school and on trips as well as for adults at work, during exercise and in their free time. The green neoprene unisex sleeve with a lotus motif improves the grip and completes the look of the bottle.
Flaska uses programmed glass (TPS), which the manufacturer describes as working with the structure of water in a way they compare to spring water.
European glass is chemically stable and naturally BPA free, so it does not absorb odours or flavours. Bisphenol A (BPA) is a synthetic substance used in some plastics that can migrate into drinks and is regulated in the EU.
The green lotus sleeve has a modern unisex design, making the bottle a clean, timeless accessory. At the same time it is a reusable bottle that helps reduce the use of single-use plastic bottles and offers a more environmentally conscious choice.

How are Flaska bottles different from “ordinary” bottles?
Compared to plastic bottles, Flaska offers the advantages of glass: it is chemically stable and therefore does not retain odours or flavours and does not absorb colour from drinks.
Glass is also naturally BPA-free and free from plasticisers, while plastic may, with long-term use, absorb smells or release substances into beverages.
From a hygiene perspective, glass is easy to clean and tolerates hot water and thorough mechanical cleaning with a brush, without forming a surface film. Plastic, on the other hand, is more easily scratched, and micro-scratches can reduce cleanability and hygiene.
Over its life cycle, a glass bottle – when handled with care – offers a long lifespan and is fully recyclable, reducing the need for single-use packaging. Plastic may be lighter, but usually has a shorter usable lifespan and loses flavour neutrality over time.
In practice, glass is heavier and more fragile, but Flaska balances this with accessories. Cork or neoprene sleeves and bottles in various sizes are available, making it easy to choose a version for work, sport, travel or home serving.
Who are Flaska bottles for and where can you use them?
Flaska bottles are suitable for everyday hydration at home, in the office, at school and during meetings. They work perfectly for sports and leisure time – to the gym, for yoga, hiking and cycling. Flaska also offers bottles for children to help maintain a regular drinking routine at school and activities.
They are practical for travel and daily commuting – in a backpack or car, on a trip or in the city. You can easily refill the bottle at drinking fountains or at home before leaving, so you have water always at hand.
Flaska bottles are produced in various designs with integrated sleeves, allowing you to choose a style that matches your taste and preferences. The range includes cork, neoprene and silicone sleeves, in different colours and motifs for children and adults.
The sleeve improves grip and enhances the appearance of the bottle; neoprene sleeves are additionally removable and washable, while cork and silicone sleeves can be easily removed and cleaned with a damp cloth.
Why choose Flaska
Flaska bottles are reusable glass bottles that keep water flavour-neutral and free from unwanted odours. Glass is inert and naturally BPA-free, so it does not react with beverages or release substances into them.
Part of the brand’s identity is also an approach the manufacturer refers to as “programmed glass” – their own way of focusing on quality and the perception of water.
Flaska bottles integrate easily into everyday hydration at work, at home, while studying and on the go. Thanks to the comfortable neck and quality cap, they are easy to clean and pleasant to drink from.
The brand offers multiple bottle sizes and various design options with cork, neoprene or silicone sleeves. Sleeves improve grip and enhance the bottle’s appearance; neoprene sleeves are also removable and washable, while cork and silicone sleeves can be easily removed and cleaned.
For a long service life, hand washing with a mild detergent and regular airing of the cap are recommended. Repeated use of a glass bottle helps reduce single-use plastic packaging.

FAQ
What is Glass & Vibe technology and how should the bottle be used?
The manufacturer states that a vibrational program is embedded in the glass, which is intended to “tune” the water in about 5 minutes. Procedure: fill the bottle, wait, gently swirl the water and drink. This principle should be understood as a brand claim, not a health effect.
Is Flaska BPA-free and what materials is it made from?
Yes. Glass is naturally BPA-free and free from plasticisers and is inert (it does not react with beverages). Accessories mainly include cork and neoprene sleeves for comfortable carrying.
Can I wash the Flaska in a dishwasher?
Not recommended. Maintenance should be manual – use a soft brush and a mild detergent. This helps the bottle and sleeve maintain a longer lifespan.
What about hot water – can I pour hot drinks into the bottle?
Hot drinks may reduce the declared “structuring” effect. Recommendation: prepare hot drinks separately and allow them to cool, or use special cups/glasses designed for hot beverages (information about “tuning the water” is a manufacturer’s claim).
How durable is the bottle and what should I avoid?
Glass is robust, but it is still a fragile material. We recommend using a protective sleeve, avoiding drops and impacts, not using it in a microwave, and avoiding extreme temperature shocks.
What sizes and accessories are available?
The brand offers multiple bottle sizes and a wide range of accessories. Various types of sleeves (cork, neoprene), replacement caps and other accessories for everyday use are available.

Zakladatel slovinské značky Flaska, Maks Vrečko, je skutečný inovátor. Na nápad, který za Flaskou stojí, přišel při pěstování jahod. Pomáhal totiž manželce na jejich rodinné farmě. Protože ho typické zemědělství nezajímalo a klasické zemědělské technologie moc neznal, začal se zajímat o různé netradiční přístupy. V roce 2003 se díky tomu seznámil s procesem restrukturalizace vody. Rozhodl se provést vlastní pokus - polovinu pole zaléval restrukturalizovanou vodou a druhou polovinu normální vodou.
Nějakou dobu nebyly patrné žádné výrazné rozdíly, ale když nastal čas sklizně, rychle se ukázalo, že voda hrála důležitou roli. Jahody zalévané restrukturalizovanou vodou byly znatelně pevnější. Trvanlivost plodů se prodloužila a úroda na části pole, která byla zalévaná restrukturalizovanou vodou, byla o 18,1 % vydatnější. Na konci sezóny byly rostliny v této části výsadby vitálnější a méně napadené chorobami.
V následujících letech pak Maks v experimentech s restrukturalizovanou vodou pokračoval. Ze skeptika se stal nadšencem této technologie, která je známá již téměř 90 let, od objevů Viktora Schaubergera, průkopníka strukturování vody. Maks říká, že když nad tím zpětně přemýšlí, mělo to být naprosto logické, že zlepšení struktury vody povede i ke zlepšení jahod, vzhledem k tomu, že 89 % plodu jahod je tvořeno vodou. V té době ho to prý ale vůbec nenapadlo.
K údivu mnohých Maks v roce 2009 přestal pěstovat jahody. Měly vynikající kvalitu, odbyt byl skvělý a všichni byli spokojeni. Ale život mu říkal, že se musí poohlédnout po nových výzvách. Začal nabízet technologii strukturování vody v zemědělství. Přes vynikající výsledky testů (při pěstování ovoce, zeleniny, výrobě mléka, chovu drůbeže atd.) nebyl trh ještě připraven přijmout "neviditelnou" technologii, přestože její výsledky byly zcela zřejmé.
Po náročném roce a půl dostal nápad implementovat technologii strukturování vody do lahve pro každodenní použití. V listopadu 2009 byla spuštěna testovací série a po kladném ohlasu byla zahájena skutečná výroba. A tak se zrodila - Flaska! Na slovinský trh vstoupila 10. března 2010.
Věci se začaly hýbat kupředu rychlostí blesku - tým Flasky se rozrůstal, a brzy uváděli na trh nové modely a velikosti lahví a expandovali na nové světové trhy. Vypadá to jako pohádka, ale v reálném životě Flasku také čekaly těžké časy, zejména v letech 2012 až 2014. Toto období překonali jen díky společné práci a spoustě pozitivní energie všech zaměstnanců a partnerů. V následujících letech pak vyvinuli další naprogramované výrobky - džbán Vodan, Doggy Flasku pro psy a sklenici na pití Sirius.
Flaska nadále zdokonaluje proces restrukturalizace vody TPS. Jejich filozofie restrukturalizace vody se liší od většiny ostatních, které tuto technologii nabízejí. Pomáhají vodě vrátit se k její pramenité struktuře. Společnost Flaska zastává názor, že všichni obyvatelé naší planety by měli pít vodu co nejlepší kvality. Výrobou Flasky tak nejen zvyšují obecné povědomí o pití kvalitní vody, ale přispívají ke snižování vytváření plastového odpadu jednorázovými plastovými lahvemi.
Flaska je důkazem toho, že máme moc měnit svět prakticky každým douškem vody, kapku po kapce.
