AUTOSEAL® Technology

CONTIGO® offers both Travel Mugs and Water Bottles that feature the revolutionary, patented AUTOSEAL® Technology.
The exclusive AUTOSEAL® technology offers convenient, easy one-handed drinking; no lids to remove, no spouts to open. Just press the AUTOSEAL® button to sip, and release the button to automatically seal. The drink spout defaults to a closed position, automatically sealing for 100% spill and leak-proof performance. By defaulting to a closed position, temperature retention is also enhanced.

AUTOSEAL® lids are designed with an open architecture for easy cleaning, and are top rack dishwasher safe. Lids also seal directly at the drink spout to prevent trapping of residual liquid. All materials used in CONTIGO® AUTOSEAL® products are carefully chosen to be highly engineered, durable, and BPA-free. AUTOSEAL® Technology is uniquely suited to meet stringent safety and lifestyle requirements
