- aaronbrethorst 9y agopistoriousp did a perfectly good job of answering this five minutes ago, but if you want a very specific answer that includes a product currently for sale, I'd point you to this: https://boxedwaterisbetter.com/pages/why-boxed-is-better https://boxedwaterisbetter.com/pages/why-boxed-is-better
- John_KZ 9y agopistoriousp didn't really answer. Aluminum cans don't scale well to over 500ml (have you seen a 1.5lt bottle made of aluminum?), and even at 500ml they require pressurization to hold. Tetrapac is still plastic inside, but a lot more expensive, with lower lifespan and robustness and with much higher carbon footprint. It's probably a bit less vulnerable to plasticizer leaching but that's the only thing it can offer. As for glass, I'm sorry, but this is the stupidest thing I've heard all week. You obviously don't understand anything about this issue if you propose to use glass for bottled water.

- Symbiote 9y agoBottled water should not be anything more than a niche product. Returnable bottles would work, or "bring your own bottle" to refill. These four products are in returnable bottles: http://akddistribution.dk/produkt-kategori/danskvand/danskvand-glas/ http://akddistribution.dk/produkt-kategori/danskvand/danskva...
