The Idea Sparked Online
One evening, during a deep dive online, I came across a trusted OEM/ODM manufacturer in China — the same kind used by global hydration brands.Their bottles stood out: beautifully designed, food-grade, safety-certified, and fully customisable. These were bottles I hadn’t seen readily available in the South African market — especially for kids.The manufacturer holds SGS, LFGB, and FDA certifications, which gave me peace of mind. I had their SGS certificates independently verified by SGS to confirm their authenticity.They also manufacture for several globally recognised hydration and lifestyle brands, which gave me added confidence in their quality and standards. What made them truly different was that they allowed me to build my own bottle from the ground up — choosing colours, features, and finishes to bring Hydration Haus to life. After a few conversations with one of their team members, I felt ready to take the first step, and that’s how Hydration Haus began —A brand built with intention, from the ground up.
