I really don't know. Sorry it took so long to respond, but I am not online that often. Perhaps you have contacted the company already and got an answer to your question.

It doesn't say, as there is no recycling label on the bottom of any of the trays. It is very bright white in color and rigid. I have dropped the trays several times but they don't chip or crack. If you are worried about BPA, these trays are certified BPA free. For more info, check out sproutpeople.org.

Yes it has a green plastic cover that you leave on for the first couple days of sprouting. The watering system is great, it goes off every 30 minutes. Plenty of water. You do need to change the water in the tank every day or two. Just be sure to get good seed that is the most important thing.

Walter, according to their website they are BPA free: The Victorio 4-Tray Seed Sprouter produces nutritious sprouts in just 3-5 days. Simply spread the seeds in each tray and pour water in the top tray. As the water slowly siphons throught the tray below, the seeds are gently soaked to start the germination process. The four, 6" diameter trays, allow you the versatility you need by letting you grow the same sprouts in each tray for a large batch, or grow 4 different varieties at once. The BPA free plastic is dishwasher safe and easy to clean by hand. To help you get started, your sprouter comes with a 1oz package of Organic Alfalfa Seeds.

No, the top portion where the flowers attach is metal but the base which screws into the glass bottle is plastic. For what its worth, it seems to be a sturdy variety of plastic.

all plastic, but very sturdy. Ordered another just in case this one broke, but I still have an extra one. I ordered a metal one, it did not fit. I did not return it, had already done away with the paper work. but the plastic ones are fine. I have 3 small grandchildren & they think they have to serve everyone water, even the dogs. Very sturdy & very recommended.

The part that holds the seed is very strong plastic. The top is metal-it has a copper finish but not sure it's copper.

I don't know what kind of plastic it is. All I can tell you is that it is black and the material nice and flexible. I used mine to start lotus plants from seed and they worked great for my use. I had each tub filled about halfway with soil and the other half with water. I was able to left and move the tubs using the rim and the plastic was strong enough to do that with no problem. You might check with the manufacturer Laguna) if you need an actual type of plastic.

The one I got is as pictured. The only plastic is a 1 inch tube coating the wire where it comes out of the metal tube. The probe part that inserts into the food is all metal.
