1 BRING YOUR OWN: ELIMINATE WASTE. MAKE MONEY. SAVE THE WORLD.

2 WE HAVE A PROBLEM

3 2 TONS * Big festivals and events are great. They bring people together to celebrate music, film, adventure, the arts, and being outdoors. What s not to love? But they can generate a lot of waste particularly in the forms of plastic bottles and cups. Sometimes these items can be recycled or composted, but that doesn t stop festivalgoers from leaving these single-use items on the ground or stuffing them in the nearest garbage can. When it comes down to it, trash is trash. * The amount of waste produced at the UK s Glastonbury Festival, which hosts 177,500 people over one weekend

4 KLEAN KANTEEN PROVIDES SOLUTIONS. Klean s stainless steel pints, cups, and bottles are simple solutions to the complex problem of single-use waste at events. We raise the bar from recycling and composting to actually eliminating waste. What s more, our bottles and pints go beyond the festival venue and continue to offset single-use waste in daily life. With Klean Kanteen s stainless steel pints and bottles, you can turn the traditional overhead costs of disposable cups and bottles into a source of pride and profit.

5 Klean attended more than 80 events during the 2015 festival season with more than 400,000 attendees. We provided more than 90,000 stainless steel pints to festivalgoers nationwide. Those pints kept the beer flowing and prevented an estimated 450,000 single-use cups from entering the waste stream. We filled festivalgoers steel pints and reusable bottles with more than 50,000 gallons of fresh drinking water, diverting more than 400,000 plastic bottles from the waste stream.

6 BUT DON T TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT... The Vail Valley Foundation has worked with Klean Kanteen to integrate pints into multiple VVF events including the GoPro Mountain Games and the 2015 Alpine World Ski Championships. Custom Klean Kanteen pints help reduce waste, provide our guests with a unique souvenir, and help increase drink sales. All in all, the Klean Kanteen pint program has delivered great value to the VVF. Dave Dressman National Sponsorship Director Vail Valley Foundation Working with Klean Kanteen to provide our attendees with not only the opportunity to participate in the serious greening efforts of our festivals, but to take home the memories, has been a hit. People are so pumped to be part of the solution, lead by example, and connect with a partner like Klean Kanteen not only on site, but down the road as well. We look forward to a lasting connection with this forward-thinking company! Scotty Stoughton Founder WinterWonderGrass

7 HERE S HOW IT WORKS (You can start small and work up to the big stuff )

8 SEE FOR YOURSELF The Klean Kanteen pint program has fit like a glove at the Northwest String Summit. It is a great way to progress our commitment of reducing waste and our footprint while creating a great keepsake and promotional tool for patrons. We look forward to continuing and even enhancing this program in future years of the event. Skye McDonald North West String Summit

9 GENERAL MERCHANDISE Place your festival or venue logo on our stainless steel pints and make them available for purchase. Pints can be filled (and refilled and refilled) with beverages of all kinds throughout the event. What s more, they ll continue to offset single-use waste long after attendees have gone home, at backyard BBQs, picnics, and on camping trips. Our Co-Brand department can help you perfect the artwork for your pint, so your brand will truly shine. Click here to learn more.

10 Our partnership with Klean Kanteen is a shining example of how working together for a common goal makes a difference. FloydFest has reduced almost all disposable cup use by providing attendees the opportunity to purchase a beautiful steel pint branded with each year s festival artwork. Now collectors items for our attendees, the cups have contributed to our commitment to reducing waste and becoming a greener event. Linda DeVito Event Promoter FloydFest

11 CUP KARMA Single-use is just plain trashy. Make reusables the star of the show through our Cup Karma program. Successful strategies include: providing drink coupons with each pint purchased offering discounted refills on drinks in steel pints creating a social media buzz and encouraging attendees to post pint pictures and join the conversation

12 FULL REPLACEMENT Include pints in the cost of admission and provide a steel pint for every attendee to use throughout the festival. Full replacement is a great way to lead the green-event movement and show fans and performers that single-use waste just isn t cool. Successful strategies include: providing a pint for each attendee (included in the price of admission or sold on site.) Klean Kanteen provided water stations allowing or incentivizing attendees to bring pints from past events (when applicable) creating a buzz on social media and encouraging attendees to post pint pictures and join the conversation

13 When we started The Festy Experience in 2010 we had a vision to create an exceptional festival experience. For us, that was going to include amazing music, craft beer, local food, and a family-friendly atmosphere. After the first two years, we decided to further enhance the experience by eliminating plastic from our event and providing Klean Kanteen steel pints for each attendee. The feedback was overwhelming the program was exactly the kind of experience that our audience is seeking. In addition, we were able to prove that festivals are NOT naturally wasteful with 4,000 people and a spotless venue! Klean Kanteen is the ideal partner to create a zero-waste event. Michael Allenby Co-Founder The Festy Experience

14 VIP EXPERIENCE Not ready to jump in the deep end? Create a full replacement, waste-free VIP experience at your event and test the waters on a smaller scale. Brand pints and bottles with your logo or festival artwork, and honor sponsors and partners by including their logos.

18 W H AT I S BRING YOUR OWN?

19 Bring Your Own is Klean Kanteen s activism and mission at work. It s a movement led by Klean to change mainstream behavior around the problem of single-use waste and engage and inspire Klean consumers, partners, and friends in that important work. It started with a series of short films that show reallife people faced with the absurdity of single-use in everyday situations, underscoring the social and cultural issues that contribute to all of these trashy disposable products in our lives. Take a look by clicking on the film.
