1. Refillable Energy Gels Are Far Better For The Environment
One of the most significant advantages of refillable energy gels is their positive impact on the environment. By opting for refillable pouches or containers, you significantly reduce single-use plastic waste.
Traditional single-serving gel packets contribute to plastic pollution, which harms ecosystems and wildlife. Choosing refillable gels is an eco-friendly choice that aligns with our commitment to sustainability and reduces your carbon footprint.
(There's a reason we won the "Sustainability In Running" award at The National Running Show and "Eco-Champion" from Women's Running Mag.)
2. Easier and Cleaner to use
We've all been there, miles into a run or ride and you pull the tab on your gel - instant sticky mess. With a refillable gel flask there is no leakage, no difficulty in opening your gel.
You can even take varying amounts of energy gel, sipping on it over the space of a few minutes rather than gulping it down. It also allows you to adjust your energy intake based on the duration and intensity of your activities.
You can also mix and match the gel flavour you prefer, filling your refillable flask with the gels that suit your taste.
3. They're Actually More Cost-Effective
Refillable energy gels can be a cost-effective option in the long run. While the initial investment might be slightly higher when purchasing a reusable flask, you save a lot of money over time by purchasing gel refills. With KMC Refillable gels it's around 20% saving per serve.
Single-use gel packets can add up in terms of cost, especially for athletes and outdoor enthusiasts who frequently use them. Refillable gels provide a budget-friendly alternative that helps you save while maintaining your energy needs.
In summary, choosing refillable energy gels is not only environmentally responsible but also offers cost savings and customization options, making them a practical and sustainable choice for athletes and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
