Our origins
LAKEN is founded in Murcia making aluminium containers and kitchenware, at a time when preserving food and drink was an everyday necessity.
About us · Since 1912
Over a century making bottles that last a lifetime.
Since 1912, when we were founded in Murcia, we have believed in preserving, reusing and making things to last. More than a hundred years later, nothing has changed: we still design and manufacture top-quality reusable products.

Our story
From aluminium containers to today's bottles
More than a hundred years of evolving without losing our essence: reusable, durable, well-made products.
1940
Heading for the mountains
Our canteens and lunch boxes leave the home and start accompanying soldiers and hikers. That is how our bond with the mountains and adventure began.
1970
Going international
We reach trade fairs and markets beyond Spain. Quality and local manufacturing drive unstoppable growth.
1990
The first bottles
We launch our first reusable bottles. Millions of bottles later, we know it was one of the best decisions in our history.
2000
New materials
We add Tritan, stainless steel and a wider range of insulated products, without giving up on reusability.

100% recycled aluminium
We start making our aluminium bottles with post-consumer recycled (PCR) aluminium, a new standard in responsible manufacturing.

Over a century
We still make reusable bottles and containers in aluminium, steel and cutting-edge materials, now found in more than 50 countries.
