From Wet Planet’s inception, we have always aimed to be as environmentally, socially, and economically responsible as possible. Our commitment to the environment shows not just in the compostable cups or recycling bins at our Coffee Bar, but also in the businesses we partner with. From the T-shirts and caps in the shop to the breakfast burritos and coffee, we always aim to partner with other businesses who share the same ethics and care for our environment as we do. One such partner is MiiR, which designs stainless steel drinkware.
MiiR’s Social and Environmental Impact
Based a stone’s throw away in Seattle, Washington, MiiR designs stainless steel drinkware. MiiR is a certified B Corp, Climate Neutral Certified, and proud members of 1% For The Planet and The Conservation Alliance. MiiR selects giving projects that support clean water, a healthy environment, and strong communities.

Wet Planet & MiiR – A perfect partnership
Why do we source our mugs from MiiR? In short – MiiR shares our values. MiiR’s drinkware combines beauty, performance, and sustainability. Similarly, Wet Planet prioritizes professionalism on the river, sets a higher standard for risk management, and practices sustainability in all aspects. Additionally, at the heart, MiiR is designed around the commodities that bring people together, which is exactly what we do on the river. It’s all about sharing experiences and connecting in nature, whether that be out on the river or over a coffee (or both at the same time!). MiiR and Wet Planet are a perfect match.
New Wet Planet Souvenir Mugs from MiiR
This year, we ordered awesome new MiiR Mugs. With a classic black, sleek white, or bright yellow for a little pop, you’ll be drinking your coffee in style! These mugs are available in the Wet Planet Coffee Bar, and the purchase of a mug comes with a free beverage of your choice. Our mugs are also given to every guest on multi-day trips – both on the 6-day Main Salmon River trip in Idaho. and the 5-day Owyhee River Trip in Oregon. They’re perfect for morning coffee and tea on the river, and when you get home, they serve as a reminder for the fond memories of your multi-day rafting adventure!
Join us on a multi-day rafting trip or stop by the Wet Planet Coffee Bar to pick up your own mug, and support clean water, a healthy environment, and strong communities in the process!
