Are these bottles BPA-free? or do they contain BPA as polycarbonate bottles generally did (until recently)?

I am not certain but I doubt if these are BPA-free since vendors go out of their way to differentiate that product -- and typically charge more for the option.

it is been a while since i bought it, but i am pretty picky about this issue and am quite certain that i checked and they were bpa free.

Be careful. Their help website http://www.bluewavebottles.com/info/help says "Yes, we do provide BPA free products. The item will be specifically stated as BPA Free." This is not stated anywhere for this product on Amazon or on their website. You must assume it contains BPA. No company should be selling BPA bottles these days. But some still are.

It's baffling that a few here assert these bottles are BPA-free. They are polycarbonate--polycarbonate is NOT BPA-free. For anyone who doubts this, I got confirmation from the manufacturer:"Hello, thank you for contacting us. Our H8O bottles are not BPA-free; they are polycarbonate.Best regards,Goldwell Enterprises Team"

It doesn't say but it is made by H80 by Goldwell Designs, Goldwell Enterprises Inc, WWW.geiusa.com. Go to their website and it has a contact us. I am sure they will be able to tell you. Sorry I could not do more for you.

Why don't they specify it on the package or on the bottle itself? I guess the answer is no, it's not BPA free. My friend also gave me a similar one that was made in Japan. "BPA free" is specified on that bottle.

I don't know if the bottles they provide are bpa free, but the nipple top fits perfectly on the madela pumping bottles, and works the same. We've been using the nipples this way for about 6 months with no trouble.

The short answer is yes it is BPA free. Was researching this last night so I had the info already on hand to post. This product is made from HPDE which does not use BPA.

#7 Polycarbonate contains bisphenol-A, a the hormone disruptor. This chemical can leach out when it is heated or exposed to acidic solutions. This type of plastic is very common in sports bottles and is used in most baby bottles and 5-gallon water jugs - watch for this one!

This item is made from polycarbonate, BPA is the key building block of polycarbonate. The answer is, yes, this item does contain BPA, the advertisement is misleading to say the least. I am returning mine.

Hi Anne; Thank you for your inquiry. The item you have inquired is BPA free. BPA is a mass-produced industrial chemical used primarily to make polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. There are concerns regarding BPA's potential health effects however there no proven cases that is so. BPA Free products are made without this chemical and that is ow they get their name.

I would imagine they are free of BPA. The bisphenol A (BPA) additive is typically used in epoxies and polycarbonates (generally clear plastics). These balls, I believe, are made of polyethylene, which wouldn't benefit from BPA.

I ordered several 2-gallon bottles and several 3-gallon bottles. Only the 3-gallon bottles were marked BPA free. I'm using them all for emergency water storage, but if I had noticed before ordering that it doesn't say "BPA free" I would have checked further. Hope this helps.

I looked at ours and it does not say "bpa free" anywhere on the bottle or the lid, so apparently its not.

They are glass bottles. Yes, sprayer and tube are plastic. Not sure about bpa free. I use coconut oil in them and they are fine.

I appreciate your response Marjorie. Though perhaps the product has changed since you last ordered. This is what the Tovolo website had to say about it: Do the Freezer Pop Molds contain BPA?BPA has only been found in Polycarbonate Plastic; all of our Pop Molds are made from Polypropylene (PP) Plastics, which have a recycle number of five.If you have any questions about BPA and Polycarbonate plastics, please visit the below website for information:* http://www.bisphenol-a.org

It is made of HDPE (#2) which is high density polyethylene. Hdpe does not contain BPA. Usually only the polycarbonate plastics (7) contain it, like older Nalgene bottles before they stopped using it. Ideally you should also avoid phthalates too of which hdpe has none.

I would visit their website and ask them. Good question! Here is what the Amazon site says: BPA-Free, lead free, cadmium free, toxin-free, worry free glass water bottle product. The company is Glasstic.

yes they are plastic, but not sure about BPA free, I'd contact manufacturer for reassurance on that. It's a REALLY nice kit!
