Brand Intro
Founded in Austria in 2016, KEEGO crafts the world’s first squeezable titanium water bottles. Production is 100% European: bottle bodies manufactured near Cologne in Germany (70%), coating in Denmark (20%), and final packing and storage back in Germany (10%). This local focus ensures high quality, fair conditions, and minimal transport impacts.
Inspiring Story
Lukas Angst, a hockey enthusiast, sparked KEEGO during a 2016 hike on Austria’s Hochkönig, frustrated by tainted tastes in existing bottles. Quitting his job, he pioneered elastic titanium tech at Montanuniversität Leoben, overcoming material hurdles and a 2018 Kickstarter triumph that raised €277,573. Challenges like production delays, COVID, and a 2024 factory fire tested resilience—”Keep going!” became the mantra. With awards from ISPO to Eurobike, and Olympic features, KEEGO evolved into a global movement. “By far, the greatest influence on a product’s footprint is its usage duration,” notes Angst, emphasising longevity over disposables.
