Most reusable plastic water bottles are made out of Polycarbonate plastic. However this plasic can give off Bisphenol A, so many companies have changed the composition of their water bottles.

Some are made of Polyethelene Teraphatalate, which is usually used for disposable water bottles (Aquafina for example) because it's cheaper to manufacture.

Polycarbonate bottles usually have the #6 on their bottom, and PETE bottles have the number 1 on the bottom.

The caps are usually made out of HDPE (high-density polyethelene) or PP (polypropylene).

Plastic bottles may be molded from any of dozens, or even hundreds of common plastic resins. Most commonly, however, bottles for healthcare and science are molded from polypropylene and drink bottles are typically molded from PET.
