Product Description
The Mitour Volleyball Shape Collapsible Silicone Water Bottle is a 550ml food-grade silicone foldable drinkware product that mimics the look and feel of a volleyball — in both its expanded bottle form and its compact folded ball state.
When extended, it stands 18cm tall (14.6cm body + 3.4cm lid) with a diameter of 8.7cm — proportioned like a standard sports bottle but visually unmistakable. When folded using a simple 4-step press method, the silicone body compresses down to a 10cm × 8.7cm round ball — a small volleyball you can clip to a bag and carry anywhere.
Its bold multi-color panel design (blue, yellow, red, white — matching real volleyball color conventions) makes it a standout product on retail shelves, in gift bags, and at sports events. The mid-band section features customizable sports silhouette artwork, and the entire color palette can be matched to any Pantone specification for private-label orders.

The fold process takes under 10 seconds and requires no tools. Children can fold and unfold it independently.
At 18cm the bottle holds 550ml for full hydration. Folded to 10cm, it becomes a compact round ball small enough for a school bag side pocket, gym bag zip compartment, or hip belt pouch. The visual transformation from bottle to ball is a genuine product moment — memorable for kids, shareable on social media, and distinctive at point of sale.
Both the silicone body and the PP lid meet FDA (US) and LFGB (EU) food contact standards — the dual certification benchmark for children's drinkware targeting global retail markets. BPA-free, PVC-free, phthalate-free, non-toxic, and completely tasteless and odorless. Verified safe for infants, children, and adults.
An exceptional specification for a collapsible bottle. The -30°C lower limit means the bottle can be stored in a freezer. The 230°C upper limit means the silicone body withstands hot beverages — hot tea, coffee, and warm water — without deforming or leaching. Rated for both ice-cold sports drinks and hot beverages.
The 1/5 twist lid engages a secure air-seal gasket to form a leak-proof closure. The bottle can be placed directly into a school bag or sports bag — folded or extended — without any leakage. Tested and verified under standard carry conditions.
The wide mouth accepts standard ice cubes for chilled beverages and allows a bottle brush to reach the full interior. The PP lid detaches completely for unobstructed access. Dishwasher safe (top rack).
The multi-ring silicone texture provides a natural anti-slip grip surface, making the bottle easy to hold — even for small hands. The silicone material also provides mild insulation that slightly retards temperature transfer, keeping cold drinks cooler for longer than a comparable thin-wall plastic bottle.
The included carabiner clips to backpack straps, school bag loops, belt loops, stroller handles, and tent loops. The folded volleyball form is particularly convenient for carabiner carry — a round ball clips and sits more neatly than a cylindrical bottle.
Food-grade silicone is non-toxic, chemically inert, and durable for thousands of use cycles. One reusable silicone bottle replaces hundreds of single-use plastic water bottles — a message that resonates with eco-conscious retail buyers, school procurement programs, and brand partners focused on sustainability positioning.

Q1: Is this bottle truly safe for children — including toddlers?
Yes. The bottle meets both FDA (US food contact) and LFGB (EU food contact) standards. All materials — silicone body, PP lid — are BPA-free, PVC-free, phthalate-free, non-toxic, tasteless, and odorless. It has been tested safe for children's use and meets the dual certification standard that European and US children's product buyers require.
Q2: How does the 4-step folding method work? Is it easy for children?
The folding process is: (1) open the lid, (2) press the top of the bottle body firmly downward, (3) replace the lid to hold the compressed shape, (4) done — a compact round ball. The process takes under 10 seconds and requires no tools or special technique. Children aged 5 and above can typically fold and unfold it independently.
Q3: What is the difference between 550ml and 200ml capacity mentioned for this bottle?
550ml is the full capacity when the bottle is extended to 18cm. 200ml is the approximate volume when the bottle is fully folded to its 10cm ball state. In use, the bottle is filled fully extended and can be progressively folded as the user drinks down the contents.
Q4: Is this bottle rated for hot beverages — tea, coffee, or hot water?
Yes. The food-grade silicone body is rated to 230°C (446°F). The PP lid is rated for hot beverage use. The bottle safely handles hot tea, coffee, and hot water without deforming, warping, or leaching. The silicone body will not deteriorate or discolor with regular hot beverage use.
Q5: Can I customize the colors and add my team or brand logo?
Yes. The multi-panel color layout can be matched to any Pantone color specification — allowing team color matching for sports clubs and brand palette matching for corporate buyers. The mid-band section supports silkscreen custom logo, team name, or graphic printing. Provide artwork in AI or PDF format.
Q6: Is the bottle leak-proof when folded and placed in a bag?
Yes. The air-seal twist lid maintains its leak-proof seal whether the bottle is in its extended or folded position. It is designed to go directly into a school bag, gym bag, or travel bag without additional protection.
Q7: Do you offer other sports ball shapes on the same bottle platform?
Yes. This folding ball bottle structure is available in multiple sports themes: golf ball (dimple texture), volleyball (multi-color panel), and football/soccer designs. We can also produce custom sports or character themes on a new mold for OEM orders with sufficient volume. Contact us to discuss your target design.
Q8: What certifications does this product carry?
FDA (US food contact) and LFGB (EU food contact) are the primary certifications for food-contact materials. Our factory holds BSCI social compliance and ISO9001 quality management certifications.
