Wanaka Water Jugs

It started at the spring.

Around Wānaka, we're lucky enough to have access to excellent natural spring water. Plenty of us fill up our drinking water and bring it home.

There was just one problem: what do you put it in?

We wanted something big enough to last the week, made from stainless steel rather than plastic, and with a tap so it could live on the bench and be easy to use.

We couldn't find it.

So we made it.

Why stainless steel?

Less plastic. A simple daily choice.

Microplastics are already present in our air, food and water. We wanted a simple way to use less plastic in our everyday drinking routine.

Glass is another option, but at 30 litres, its weight and risk of breakage make it less practical. Stainless steel offers a durable alternative for larger volumes.

That’s why we chose 304 stainless steel. The steel body won’t shed microplastics, and it’s easy to clean and ready for repeated refills. One jug to fill, enjoy and fill again.

A few things you might be wondering.

When will my jug arrive?

We're sold out. New stock is arriving 15 November 2026, and pre-orders go out as soon as it lands. Pre-orders are charged in full at checkout, and we'll email you when yours is on its way. If anything changes with the date, we'll let you know straight away and you can cancel for a full refund.

How much does it hold?

30 litres. The jug is 30 cm wide and 44 cm tall.

How long does 30L last?

It depends on your household, but 30 litres is designed to hold roughly a week's drinking water for many homes.

What is the jug made from?

304 stainless steel, the same food-grade steel used in kitchen sinks and cookware.

Is the tap stainless steel too?

Yes. The tap is stainless steel as well.

How do I clean it?

The large removable lid gives you access to the inside of the jug for easy cleaning. Some dish soap and a dish brush is all you need, then rinse well and leave the lid off to dry.

Can I use it for things other than spring water?

Absolutely. It's designed for drinking water, whether yours comes from a spring, filtration system, rainwater tank, bore or another potable source.

How heavy is it when full?

Approximately 32 kg if you fill it all the way to the top. We recommend filling and transporting it with this in mind.

Do you ship throughout New Zealand?

Yes. We ship NZ-wide, and delivery is free locally in Wānaka. Shipping costs are shown at checkout.
