About Contigo
Contigo is an American reusable drinkware brand founded in Chicago in 1999 as part of Ignite Holdings. The brand name comes from the Spanish word meaning 'with you', reflecting their philosophy that quality water bottles and travel mugs should be constant companions. Many Contigo products are named after Chicago streets and neighbourhoods as a tribute to their origins. The brand's signature innovation is Autoseal technology, introduced in 2010. This proprietary mechanism automatically seals the drinking spout between sips, creating genuinely leak-proof travel mugs and water bottles. This technology became so valuable that Newell Rubbermaid (now Newell Brands) acquired Contigo's parent company Ignite Holdings for $308 million in July 2014. Today, Contigo is part of the Newell Brands portfolio alongside other household names like Rubbermaid and Coleman. The company is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, with products manufactured in China using USA-patented designs. By 2014, Contigo's net sales had reached approximately $125 million, demonstrating strong demand for reliable, spill-proof drinkware. British shoppers can find Contigo water bottles, travel mugs, and kids' drinkware at UK supermarkets. Their products are popular with commuters, gym-goers, and parents seeking spill-proof solutions. The Autoseal range remains their bestselling line, offering peace of mind for bags and desks alike.
