Why We Love These Products
They’re Healthy For You
One of the main reasons we handpicked these products for you is because they are made of the best possible quality materials. This means they are toxin-free! BPA, phthalate, PVC, and lead are materials that are commonly found in products made for food. While they are not illegal for use in food products, they aren’t good for you and can cause some health issues.
Some of the common toxins that are found in lunchboxes and other food packaging products include:
- Heavy metals. Some of the heavy metals that are detected in lunchboxes, especially in the inner and outer linings, include Lead, Arsenic, Chromium, Zinc, Nickel, Iron, and Titanium. These can all lead to medical issues, either immediately or later in life.
- PVC. This is one of the most widely-used forms of plastic. Chances are pretty great that you’ve already got PVC around your house. However, when it comes to food handling, you want to avoid it.PVC contains dangerous chemical additives, including phthalates, lead, cadmium, and/or organotins, which can be toxic to your child's health.

- BPA. This is a chemical commonly used in plastics. Exposure to BPA is a concern because of the possible health effects on the brain and prostate gland of fetuses, infants and children. It can also affect children's behavior. Additional research suggests a possible link between BPA and increased blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.

- Phthalate. This is a group of chemicals also used in plastics, which helps make them more durable. It has been linked to ADHD-like behaviors, aggression, depression, a lower IQ, and autism in children. (source: https://www.state.nj.us/humanservices/opmrdd/heal...
