The Trouble with Nalgene

The news came out a while back that even reusable plastic water bottles posed a possible major health risk with Nalgene, one of the bigger names in the water bottle industry, being a particular major offender due to its inclusion of Bisphenol A in many of its products. I’ve been using Nalgene water bottles for awhile now, and it seems awfully wasteful for me to simply throw them out when they’re still in good condition. Regardless, I’ll probably use them for a few years more until they get banged up beyond repair and then I’ll probably make the switch to SIGG and/or Klean Kanteens.

How do you go about initiating this “free life-time guarantee” you speak of? I have not been able to find any literature to back up this claim.
