I see they are BPA free, but what is it made of? BPS, ABS, or true silicone, or another type of plastic/rubber?

I'm not sure what they are made of - I don't have the packaging any more. But, these are great for toddlers!!! They fit their hands perfectly. They are rounded at the right angle so they can get the food picked up much, much better than any others I have ever seen. (I am a mother of 4 & a grandma of 2) :-) They also wash well in the dishwasher!

They are a plastic/rubber which according to the manufacturer is bpa and phthalate free. My 14 month old loves them!

It says made in China on the box. All 100% silicone products do not have BPA. You can only find BPA in plastics. BPA is a chemical they put into plastics when trying to make it soft (e.g. baby bottle nipple). Silicone is naturally flexible, so it does not need it. That's why silicone is so popular.

I am not sure , but silicon does not use a plasticizer which is what BPA is.

I think it's silicone rubber. Why not call the Sizzix company. I'm sure they'll tell you.

It is ABS BPA Free Plastic, according to the Victorio website which I checked prior to purchasing.

Yes, it's BPA free. It is made of polyethylene and silicone, neither of which contain BPA

Hi Amanda, I can confirm that the silicone is BPA free and safe. Silicone is a natural substance that is formed by bonding silicon with oxygen. Silicon is an element that is abundant in sand and rock making up 28% of the earth's crust.I hope this helps but please do let me know if you have any further questions.Kind regards, BrightSpring

Plastic....BPA free... I really enjoy using them, especially with the lunch bag designed for them. Very flexible, lots of options. Other questions? Post, and I'll get back to you.

It sure is! Its made from a BPA-free Silicone. I'm a female who's trying to conceive so its important to me things are BPA-free.

I checked, and I cant find anywhere where it says BPA free, so Im going to assume its not BPA free.

Ken, my amateur analysis would be rubber, not silicone...they work great and wear well.

What plastic exactly? It mentions BPA free, but are there any other bisphenols used? BPS, perhaps? Where can we get the exact list of chemicals? Any certifications from a European consumer safety authority?

I don't have the packaging any more so I can't say for certain if it said BPA free, but the way I understand it BPA is a plastic based issue and these mats are food grade silicone, not plastic.
