Client Spotlight: Festken
The year was 2015 when two music festival attendees gazed over the field that was once their dance floor. While all the movers and shakers made their way home, the field, once full of lush green grass, was now littered with nearly thousands of tons of plastic waste.
This was Festken’s lightbulb moment. From this moment on, they set out to create a sustainable and fashionable refillable water container for music festival attendees that would keep them hydrated and significantly reduce the festival’s contribution to plastic waste. Enter TriMech Design and our world-class industrial design services.

The final version of our 3D CAD of the Festken water bottle by one of our top Industrial Designers.
Festken and TriMech Collaborate on Industrial Design Services
Festken had a vision for their product. They wanted to move beyond the screw top design for a more sustainable container and increase efficiency for the drinker. They wanted it to be durable, to stand the test of time, and they also wanted it to include an LED light, because why wouldn’t you?
Working in collaboration with one of our top visionary industrial designers, the Festken water bottle came to life. We put our best industrial design services to work and are thrilled to share the final product.

“We are the future of hydration, designed for style and efficiency. We’re revolutionizing plastic waste one bottle at a time,” says Megan, Founder of Festken. “It was an amazing experience working with the MAKO team, who saw our vision right from the start and helped us bring it to life.”
The Modern Design of the Festken Bottle
With wear and tear in mind, the square lid designed with our superior engineering and industrial design services will always contain your beverage, even after hours of dancing, as if nobody’s watching.
The patented four-finger handle design is exclusive to Festken, which your hand comfortable for hours. Made from Tritan™, the dishwasher-safe bottle is BPA-free, BPS-free, and completely toxin-free.

Festken Branding
Lastly, and one of our favorite features, LED lights are placed at the base of the bottle to illuminate your beverage and add a little flare to your dance moves. Since its creation, Festken has been front and center at major music festivals around the country, helping to hydrate dancers and declaring war on plastic waste.
