One of my favorite blogs Z Recommends posted yesterday that Phillips Avent will be launching a BPA Free reusable plastic baby bottle this summer (2008). From Zrecs:
The bottle will compete directly with the company’s current “Airflex” model, a polycarbonate bottle sold widely in drugstores, department stores, and online. The new bottle, which will be made of a yet-undisclosed plastic, will be Avent’s first BPA-free bottle.
For a company that is very pro-BPA, it’s interesting to us that they are making an alternative. But this is news we’ve all been waiting for so it’s certainly a step forward. Philips Avent has also published a Materials Chart outlining what products contain BPA. Thanks Zrecs!
