Earth Kits is proud to carry the BPA Free Camelbak Better Bottles.

Many people are talking about BPA Free bottles. While people understand that a BPA free bottle is good; what exactly is BPA and should it matter?

 BPA is the abbreviation for Bispheno-A. BPA is an industrial ingredient used in the chemical compound that lines the inside of plastic materials such as plastic water bottles, food containers, and some canned goods.

The bonds of BPA are prone to leaching into the foods and water that you consume on a daily basis. BPA is often leached into your water through simple wear and tear, expsire to heat, and cleaning agents. Just because you think washing your bottle in the dishwasher will keep it safe, you are wrong unless you have a BPA free bottle. Maybe you think that just reusing your plastic water bottle is safe, wrong again. Not only are you taking in germs, the BPA is leaching into your water with just multiple uses.

A BPA Free “Kids Go Green” Camelbak Bottle is all about re-using the bottles. Granted, recycling a plastic water bottle is good because that bottle will not sit in a landfill for 30 years, however I am urging you to please take an extra step to consider our bottles so you can reuse the bottles and be safe all at the same time.

Remember, while these bottles look like they are plastic they are BPA Free. For more information please visit www.camelbak.com and www.earthkits.com
