Is SIGG a good brand to use for a sippy cup?
The SIGG water bottles are a good alternative to plastic. The only concern with the product was that it is lined with Bisphenol A (a hormone disruptor.) When the manufacturer was contacted about the use of Bisphenol A, the response was as follows:
- SIGG's liner protects from any migration or leaching of the liner and container into the liquid. All tests of the liquid reveal no trace (0%) of any of the following chemicals: Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA), Bisphenol A (BPA), and Bisphenol B (BPB).
- "While the polycarbonate bottles we tested leached a significant amount of BPA, the SIGG bottles - both new and used - showed no detectable BPA." - Jonathan Chun, PhD, Alliance Tech, USA
To date, there is no research that is contrary to their claim.
