Chilly's Bottle

Brand History and Ethos

Chilly's was founded in 2010 by James Butterfield and Tim Bouscaud with a clear mission: to accelerate the adoption and everyday use of reusable products. The brand was established in London, United Kingdom, and quickly rose to prominence by combining the high performance of a modern thermos flask with the convenience of a plastic water bottle, backed by stylish and frequently changing designs.

Manufacturing and Supply Chain

While the company is headquartered in the UK where all product design and developmental testing take place, the physical manufacturing occurs in China. Chilly’s works with specialist factories that have the technical capability to produce high-grade 304 stainless steel products and advanced vacuum insulation technology. This allows the brand to scale globally while maintaining the distinctive powder-coated finish and durability for which their products are known.

Ownership and Global Presence

Chilly's remains an independent, private company owned primarily by its founders. It has successfully avoided the traditional corporate buyouts common in the kitchenware sector, focusing instead on direct-to-consumer sales and partnerships with high-end retailers. The brand continues to lead the market in sustainable lifestyle products by expanding into housewares and coffee cups, maintaining its status as a British design success story.
