September 27, 2013 — Republic of Panama – Drink Tank, Ltd., makers of the popular TankH2O water bottle / flask, announced today that Sport Chalet has listed TankH2O as one of their “Hot Products for the Year”.
“Sport Chalet based this merit on the quantity of TankH2O’s sold so far (it is a brand new product), our customer satisfaction with the product, and our forecast of future orders”, says Seton Kidd, Senior Buyer at Sport Chalet. “The customer response has been amazing, especially as gifts for other Scuba divers.” With the holidays just around the corner, TankH2O’s are perfect for Scuba divers on your list.
“We are pleased with the distinction from Sport Chalet,” said Brad Bishop, Marketing Manager for the TankH2O product. “Ever since TankH2O’s hit the shelves, we knew we had a top seller. Besides the quality design, world-class manufacturing and field-tested functionality, we hear customer-after-customer call the product, ‘Cute’ or ‘Cool’. Scuba divers feel compelled to get a few of them, for their next dive trip, for their office, in their car, and/or in the board room.”
“I am a Scuba Diver”
Carrying a product around that so clearly defines who they are resonates well with customers. “I just love that other people that I’ve known for years, will come up to me [while holding my TankH2O] and say, ‘Wow, I didn’t know you were a Scuba diver?!’, says Chris Hoberg, a seasoned Scuba diver from the U.S. and interviewed recently in Indonesia. “It helps us divers identify each other even when we aren’t near the water with a wetsuit on!”
Stainless Steel Water Bottles that Look Like Scuba Tanks
TankH2O is a stainless steel water bottle shaped like a hand-held yellow scuba tank and serves the Scuba dive industry: Dive Shops, Live-aboards, Dive Resorts, Aquarium Theme Parks, and Scuba Dive Manufacturers. TankH2O’s are built with an inert 18/8 Stainless Steel bottle and a PP#5 Top-Cap, so they are FDA-approved to handle water and/or alcohol without creating taste or health issues. There is a silicon O-ring that all scuba divers are comfortable with, acting as the 100% solution to keeping your drink in your TankH2O and not all over your luggage.
