Point 1. Certainly, silicone is indisputably safer for human health than plastic, food-grade silicone is a non-toxic polymer mostly made from silica (sand).– unlike plastics, which is a petroleum-based material commonly containing estrogen-mimicking chemicals like bisphenol-A (BPA). Furthermore, when it comes to the environment, silicone is highly durable and more environmentally friendly than single-use plastic. |
Point 2. Silicone is always much longer-lasting than single-use plastic and endures extreme fluctuations in temperatures, it can withstand from very cold to oven hot, without deforming, cracking, or otherwise degrading. Although reusable plastic containers may last a year or a few years if they are hand-washed,but they end up getting scratched, foggy, damaged, and need to be retired from use much sooner than similar items that are made from silicone. |
