Tritan bottles: the toxin-free material

 

Do you know what Tritan bottles are? Tritan is the material many of our bottles are made from. It stands out for being respectful of our bodies and the environment, making it perfect for reusable containers.

If you identify with Inuitz's healthy and eco-friendly lifestyle, this post is for you. Today we're going to review the main advantages of Tritan bottles. Let's get started!

What is Tritan?

Tritan is a copolyester resin created in 2007, first developed by Eastman Chemical Company, free of estrogenic and androgenic activity. This means that it does not affect our endocrine system or cause neurological disorders that other plastics can. It is known for being BPA-free (bisphenol A), a chemical compound that has raised concerns about human health due to its potential disruptive effect on the endocrine system.

This material was designed to offer a safe and durable alternative to other conventional plastics, such as polycarbonate, which can release BPA. Tritan is a BPA-free material by design, which makes it attractive for those looking for safe products for food and beverages.

In other words, it is not harmful to our bodies and is more than appropriate for the manufacture and use of reusable bottles.

The qualities of Tritan

Tritan is a state-of-the-art plastic, which has some qualities that make it as interesting as it is recommendable for making reusable bottles.

Toxin-free

As we already told you, at Inuitz, we work without BPA (Bisphenol A, a material harmful to our health). Choosing Tritan means choosing a toxin-free and BPA-free material.

Bisphenols, including BPA and BPS, are the basic components of some plastics, such as polycarbonate. They can also mimic certain hormones in the body and, therefore, interfere with the processes that these hormones regulate.

Without going any further, in France, containers made with BPA have been completely banned due to the health problems they can cause.

Tritan has been accepted as suitable for food contact. In fact, its optimal results have been endorsed by various independent studies.

100% safe and functional

In addition to its non-harmful use, Tritan is also an ideal material for manufacturing our bottles due to its resistance and quality.

Tritan bottles perfectly withstand both cold and hot drinks, as they have high resistance to thermal shock. Therefore, they can be used in both microwaves and freezers.

Of course, they can be cleaned in the dishwasher while maintaining their characteristic shine and transparency. Since it is a material similar to glass, we can observe the contents of our bottles, in addition to benefiting from their lightness. In fact, it is their lightness and chemical elasticity that make Tritan bottles easy to use and transport. And they don't dent!

More sustainable

Thanks to the characteristics we have listed, Tritan bottles are perfect for reuse, which helps reduce pollution and the consumption of single-use plastics.

Its manufacturing has a lower impact on our planet than containers made with other materials, such as PVC.

In addition, it is a recyclable material, so once it deteriorates from repeated use, we can take it to the yellow container for treatment.
