Half a gallon of Tritan Renew in a shape Nalgene describes as easy to hold. For camp it is the useful size: enough water for coffee, washing up and a refill without walking back to the tap, in a container that will not break when it goes over on a tailgate.

No carbonation claim, and here is why we are saying so out loud. It is called a Growler, which is Nalgene’s product name, and a growler normally implies beer. Nalgene publishes no pressure rating and no carbonated-beverage statement for it anywhere — not on the product page, not in their FAQ. So we will not tell you it holds carbonation, keeps beer fresh, or is safe to fill at a taproom. It is a 64 oz Tritan Renew container. What you put in it is your call, made with that information rather than without it.

Two specs are missing and we could not get them. Nalgene publishes no cap thread and no dimensions for the Growler, and a customer asked them for exactly those on their own product page and got no answer. We are not going to assume it is 63 mm. If you need the neck size — to fit a spare cap, say — ask us and we will get it from the supplier before you order.

About Nalgene Sustain and Tritan Renew

Sustain is Nalgene’s name for bottles molded in Tritan Renew, a copolyester that Nalgene describes as made with up to 50% certified recycled content. We quote that “up to” deliberately, because it is Nalgene’s own wording. The resin maker, Eastman, produces it by breaking plastic waste back down into the chemical building blocks of new plastic and accounting for the recycled share across production rather than tracing it to one individual bottle. That is how the certification works, and we would rather say so than imply something it does not cover.

Nalgene states in its FAQ that all of its bottles are free of BPA, BPS, BPF and phthalates.

Care

Dishwasher safe. Nalgene recommends the top rack, away from the heating element; if the bottle is too tall for the top rack, the bottom rack is fine on a high-temperature sanitizing cycle.

Hot liquids: Nalgene rates Tritan Renew for hot liquids including boiling water up to 212°F (100°C) in everyday use. You pour boiling water into the bottle; you never boil water in it, and these bottles are not made for direct heat or open flame. Nalgene asks you to wait a few seconds after pouring before screwing the lid down.

Freezing: allowed, but fill only about two-thirds so the contents can expand.

Lifetime guarantee

Nalgene covers functional damage — cracks, breaks, broken components from normal intended use — under a Lifetime Guarantee. It excludes cosmetic damage such as scratches, nicks and worn printing, excludes lost or stolen items, and excludes Epic filtration products, which Nalgene routes to Epic Water Filters. Nalgene also states that claims are subject to review and may be rejected. Claims go through Nalgene with a photo and proof of purchase; they ask for 14 to 21 days.
