Starting today at 5 pm PDT, Sunrider will release newly designed 32 oz. Shaker Bottles made without bisphenol A. Commonly referred to as BPA, bisphenol A is used primarily to make plastics. It is a key monomer in the most common form of polycarbonate plastic, which is clear and nearly shatter-proof, and used to make a variety of common products including baby and water bottles, sports equipment, medical and dental devices, and so on.
After reports surfaced in 2008 questioning the safety of the use of bisphenol A in consumer products, some retailers removed products containing it from their shelves, and some manufacturers began making products without the ingredient. However, the FDA has not banned this substance nor declared that it is harmful.
Please keep in mind that our current Shaker Bottles are completely safe, and we will continue to sell the 16 oz. size as before, as well as the new 32 oz. bottles without BPA.
