POLAR BOTTLE®: THE SAFE PLASTIC SPORT BOTTLE DOES NOT AND NEVER HAS CONTAINED BPA!

IN RESPONSE TO THE TODAY SHOW’S SEGMENTS “ARE PLASTIC BOTTLES SAFE?” (4/9/08 & 4/10/08):

While the reports presented the health concerns associated with using plastic bottles, they neglected to note that there are safe plastic bottles which do not contain BPA, are non-leaching and safe for long-term use. Bottles made of LDPE Plastic #4 are a safe alternative to the disposable one time-use PET Plastic #1 and to the problems associated with Plastics #3, #6 & #7 in regard to Bisphenol A and phthalates. View the video clip here.

Designed and manufactured in America since 1994, Polar Bottle® has always been and still is made of LDPE plastic #4, which does not contain BPA or phthalates, is refillable and recyclable. They can be washed in the dishwasher so that you can use them over and over, safely! No leaching chemicals to worry about and no reason to discard them. Even the valve can be removed for thorough cleaning and to prevent the build-up of bacteria. Designed for long-term use with its colorful insulating foil between the dual walled plastic layers, Polar Bottle provides a fun and fashionable alternative to disposable bottles. With 8 colors and two sizes (24 or 20 ounce) to choose from, each member of the family can have their own Polar Bottle. Bottles can also be customized or personalized by a digital printing process that places the logo or message directly on the foil liner. Not just for the sports crowd: Use it in the car, in the classroom, in your backpack or bag, in town or on the trail, at work or at play; anywhere you want to stay hydrated. With its removable carrying strap, you can literally “Take the Bear” everywhere. Make an “Eco-Statement” with our “Save the Planet” bottle in either size. Choose to Refill, Rehydrate, Reuse and Recycle. Do your part to help preserve water resources and lessen impacts on landfills by using a SAFE, practical, Made in America product.
