3rd Product

Name of product: Stainless-Steel Straw

Do you like drinking with straw? But what kind of straw do you use usually? Plastic straw? It’s time to stop using plastic straw now. According to Isfoundation, plastic straws contain BisphenolA (BPA).

BPA is a harmful chemical found in plastics that mimics the activity of hormones, most commonly estrogen, which can lead to a number of reproductive disorders and other conditions, such as diabetes and heart disease.

If you like to use a straw for your iced tea, hot coffee, or thick blended smoothies, and you want to invest in a set of straws that will last for decades, stainless steel is a great alternative to your traditional plastic straw.

Benefits and Uses of Using Stainless Steel Straws:

• Environmentally Friendly

Teach your kids the importance of switching to environmentally friendly products, such as metal straws to protect the environment. This will encourage them to reduce the use of plastic made products and recycle.

• Reusable

Stainless steel straws are reusable and can last for ages if you clean them properly. In addition, stainless steel does not leach chemicals and does not interact with the product you are consuming. On the other hand, plastic straws can only be used once and leech harmful chemicals.

• Easy to Clean

Rest assured, cleaning a stainless steel straw is as easy as it could be. Most metal straws are dishwasher safe so all you have to do is rinse the straw and toss it inside the dishwasher and you are good to go.

• Perfectly Safe to Use

Unlike plastic products, stainless steel straws are perfectly safe to use and BPA free. Plastic straws have been known to leech harmful chemicals into the bloodstream.

• Great Gift

Do you have a friend who is obsessed with fitness and spends most of their time making healthy and refreshing fruit juices? A set of stainless steel straws would be the perfect gift for anyone who is fitness conscious and concerned about the environment.

• Unique and Elegant

If you like fine cutlery, complete your silverware collection by purchasing a set of stainless steel straws. These straws will elegance to your dining table, making it the center of attraction every time you have guests over.

• Increased Tensile Strength

Did you know steel straws have enough tensile strength so you could enjoy orange juice directly from an orange? That is right, just push the straw into the fruit and enjoy! Imagine trying that with a plastic straw.

• Enjoy Your Drink Longer

What’s worse than preparing a cold glass of lemonade on a hot summer day only for it to turn warm before you even enjoyed it? Steel retains the temperature of your drink and prevents it from melting down.

• Safe for Kids

In terms of durability, stainless steel straws are the best compared to other types of straws. Unlike reusable glass straws, metal straws are not fragile and can easily be used by children. Hence, if you have young children who like to throw things around the table during breakfast, invest in stainless steel straws and you won’t have to worry about breakage again.

• Great for Travel

Due to its sturdy metal build, stainless steel straws can be carried wherever you go. These straws are ideal for fitness freaks that are always on the road. Just pack the straws with a cleaning brush and you are good to go.

In addition, stainless steel straws are great for people who like drinking fruit juices and smoothies at work. The straws can be packed with you wherever you go without fear of breakage.

SipWell – For Everyday Use

• At approximately 9-10 inches each (7-8 inches after the bend), the extra-long straws from SipWell are perfect for most 30-ounce tumblers and mojito or collins glasses.
• They are slim straws, best suited for thin beverages like water, juice, coffee, and tea.
• The straws are made from 18/8 stainless steel, are rust- and scratch-proof, and can be placed in the dishwasher for easy cleaning.
• Each pack comes with four drinking straws and a cleaning brush to make sure you’re getting any stuck-on bits off the inner walls before washing.

What We Love:

The size and thin diameter of these straws make them compatible with most tumblers up to 30 ounces, so you don’t have to buy a specific tumbler to use them with. In smaller tumblers, they might be slightly long, but they still get the job done. These are versatile straws, which can be used with a variety of drinking vessels.
