Is the container BPA-free?
1348357
Hi N. Alexander, Great question. Yes, all of our jars and lids we use are BPA-Free. Our jars are made of high density polyethylene (HDPE) and our lids are made of polypropylene (PP) both of which are naturally BPA-Free. Also, the F217 liner (the liner present in the top of both of our two different size lids) is BPA free. The F217 liner core is made of low density polyethylene (LDPE) and it's between two layers of solid LDPE. Here is a blog post on the Container & Packaging Supply company's blog about BPA and BPA-Free products (Note: about half way down the page look for "Not All Plastic Has BPA." to find that HDPE and PP is BPA-Free. Also, the second to last paragraph in the body of the post explains what plastics are BPA free.): http://www.containerandpackaging.com/blog/2012/06/why-it-wont-kill-you-bisphenol-a-bpa-and-the-defamed-plastic-bottles/ Here are two other useful links: http://www.livestrong.com/article/158674-which-plastic-containers-can-i-safely-use/ http://www.reuseit.com/product-materials/the-7-most-common-plastics-and-how-they-are-typically-used.htm Hope this helps. I'm sorry for the delay in answering your question. That is out of character for our company's response time. The main reason for the delay is that we as sellers aren't notified of questions that are posted in Amazon Answers like yours was. We do monitor new questions and for some reason we simply didn't see it listed. Please accept our apologies.

Sorry. I gave this as a gift. The recipient is very particular, so if I'm guessing, I'd say it is bpa free.

The actual container is made of metal. The lid and dispensing mechanism and catch tray are plastic and I cannot say if the plastic is BPA free. I can say that this is a great quality unit. Tiger is highly reputable in Japan and i would still recommend this product.

IRIS does make some BPA-free containers, but this doesn't appear to be one of them (there's no mention of it on the product page: http://irisusainc.com/p-539-nmp-xl.aspx). The 65 QT MP 400 is described as BPA-free here: http://irisusainc.com/p-800-mp-400.aspx.

This is Teri Vitallo, a representative from Thermos, and I wanted to clarify that our FUNtainer bottles and food jars are made with BPA FREE materials. Thank you for your interest.

I just looked up the information on Rubbermaid's website. It is BPA free. If you look at the link I've attached, you won't see it in the text, but you'll see the "NO BPA" symbol right underneath the image of the bottle. http://www.rubbermaid.com/Category/Pages/ProductDetail.aspx?CatName=Beverage&Subca;tId=BeverageStorage&Prod;_ID=RP091888

Oh Good question! I believe so. The lid is a number 5 plastic (polypropylene) and from my quick search on the internet it is BPA free. But then again I am getting my info from the internet... :-) Hope this helps!
