"Bisphenol A current uses are numerous. It is a key monomer in production of polycarbonate plastic and epoxy resins. Otherwise it is used in the following polymer types: polyesters, polysulfones, and polyether ketones. " - quoted from Wikipedia read
Although I only sent the bisphenol-A (BPA) concern and risk in baby bottles to close mommy friends, word of mouth is spreading and more friends are asking me about it.
The next thing we talk about is where to get it. So again I try to search and ask the brands if they sell in Singapore (the closest vicinity for us to get it).
With some more research, there's some good news:
1. Pigeon and other range of Japanese brands bottles in Takashimaya are made of Polyethersulfone (PES) and PPSU, the other alternative of BPA. Taiwanese brand - Piyo-piyo is made of PES.
3. Medela
4. Nuby & Sassy sold in Taime, based in Singapore
There are some that can be found in Jakarta, but I haven't start calling stores yet...
Of course, all glass bottles are safe, so if you don't want to buy expensive bottles, get the glass ones.
