Celsius® Teams With Lavit To Offer Beverages In Recyclable Cap Format For Water Coolers

Feb. 14, 2019

Celsius Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: CELH), maker of the leading global fitness drink, CELSIUS®, today announced an agreement with Lavit, LLC ("Lavit"), an eco-friendly, beverage technology company, to offer its energy drinks for Lavit's cold, still and sparkling water coolers in select office locations.

Under the terms of the agreement, Celsius will initially offer its orange flavor in Lavit's EcoCaps™, a recyclable variation on Keurig's single-use disposable K-Cup model that are designed to work specifically with Lavit's water coolers. Lavit's on-demand beverage coolers eliminate the need to stock office refrigerators with bottles and cans of beverages and offer healthier alternatives to sugary sodas. The EcoCaps will utilize the same formula as Celsius' popular powder format. Each EcoCap is made from 100% aluminum, and thus 100% recyclable.

Celsius' energy drink includes no artificial preservatives or flavors, no aspartame or high fructose corn syrup and is clinically-proven to accelerate metabolism, burn calories and body fat and provide healthy energy, making it an excellent alternative to coffee or energy drinks.

"Our relationship with Lavit further adds to our distribution network and represents a powerful way for us to increase brand awareness and exposure of our beverages, reaching a population of consumers in a new environment," commented John Fieldly, President and Chief Executive Officer of Celsius Holdings, Inc. "With Lavit, we are able to offer our energy drinks conveniently to offices nationwide and meet the growing demand for alternative beverages in the workplace."

"Lavit is thrilled to add CELSIUS® healthy energy drinks to our growing cold still and sparkling platform," commented Sam Murray, CEO of Lavit. "Their refreshing and functional line fits perfectly with Lavit's goal of providing better for you beverages and enhanced waters for workplaces that are striving to provide healthy hydration and sustainable solutions."
