Why is the material of plastic water cups on the market marked with tritan?

There are many kinds of plastic materials, but the plastic materials used for the production and processing of water cups must be food-grade, such as PP, PS, AS, PC, etc.

1.Easily Release BPA into Beverage

Products processed with different plastic material properties are also different. Even food-grade materials have requirements on the use environment, substances and temperature. When these materials mentioned above are filled with cold water or drinks not exceeding 60°C, no harmful substances will be released from the materials. However, if the temperature of the drink is greater than 60°C, it will cause the material to release BPA.

2.Weak Temperature Resistance

At the same time, due to the high hardness of some plastic materials and poor resistance to temperature differences, it will cause cracks during use. If it is used for a long time, some dirt will be absorbed in the crack, so such a cup can not be used for a long time.

Especially for disposable water bottles, carefully check the logo on the bottom of the bottle, most of them cannot be reused.

3.Safe and BPA-free New Material

Due to the problems of the plastic materials mentioned above, a new type of new plastic material tritan appeared on the market. It has been improved in all aspects. First, it is BPA FREE. Secondly, the transparency of material is higher. Finally, high temperature resistance and impact resistance are good. We have done a test and poured boiled hot water into a sports cup made of tritan material, which did not release any harmful substances and did not deform.

In some European countries, the sales of plastic water cups have very strict regulations, and only plastic water cups produced by tritan can enter the market. Therefore, with people's pursuit of health, manufacturers have begun to use more excellent and safe materials for production.

4.What Materials Do We Use?

The plastic water cups produced by Dongguan Zhanyi Commodity Technology Co., Ltd. are all made of tritan material imported from the United States. Each product can pass the FDA, LFGB and Japan import and export product safety testing. We have 28 injection molding machines from 360 tons to 100 tons, one machine that can complete blow molding and injection molding at the same time, and two bottle blowing machines. The daily production of plastic water cups reaches 100,000. Welcome to visit our factory for cooperation!
