USE WITH CAUTION

Lightweight, durable everyday drinking bottle

Materials

  • Tritan copolyester (BPA-free)

Common claims

  • BPA-free
  • Shatterproof
  • Clear as glass

Concerns / watch-outs

  • BPA-free Tritan has faced scrutiny over potential estrogenic activity from alternative plasticizers
  • Plastic-on-plastic contact with acidic beverages or hot liquids should be avoided

Notes

Better than polycarbonate or BPA-containing plastics, but glass or stainless are more definitively inert. For cold water use, the risk is low. Avoid hot beverages.
