Peace of Mind with Tritan Bottles

Over the years, plastic bottles have been getting a lot of bad rep. When experts discovered that leaching chemicals can give a negative effect on the reproductive system, worried parents scurried to switch to BPA-free bottles(hyperlink to What’s the Fuss with BPA Free?).  Some even opted for glass and stainless steel options to ensure that their children are completely off plastic bottles.

Although glass and stainless steel bottles are considered to be more eco-friendly, some are actually quite heavy. Can you imagine asking a child to use a glass bottle water container? I wouldn’t be able to relax at all! 

Then there’s the other issue of not being able to see through stainless steel bottles. Sure, they are super durable and would last forever, but they are not transparent. Perhaps some parents don’t mind, but I’d like to be able to keep track of how much water my kids are actually drinking. I’d like to be able to see if their bottles need topping up especially during hot seasons. How else would we know that they are getting enough fluid intake throughout the day?

There is no denying that plastic is extremely convenient. In fact, wouldn’t it be great if it didn’t contain even a single trace of bisphenol at all? A lightweight easy to carry water container that parents can let their little ones use with peace of mind. One that is durable, with the see-through clarity of glass, yet shatterproof?

Believe it or not, yes, there is! Let us introduce you to the world of Tritan bottles!

What is Tritan?

First of all, if you have not heard of it then I’m sure you’ll be wondering what is this Tritan? Tritan is a durable, BPA-free plastic that does not contain BPA, BPS or any other bisphenols and chemicals of similar structures. It might seem like a lot of jargons to process, but it just means that if you use Tritan bottles you no longer need to worry about leaching chemicals harming your child.
