Are Glass Food Containers Healthier than Plastic?

When it comes to choosing food storage solutions, the choice is often between glass and plastic. But is glass really a healthier option? In this blog post, we explore the differences and explain why glass is the best choice for your health and the environment.

Plastic and Health Risks

Plastic containers may contain chemicals such as BPA and phthalates, which can leach into food, especially when heated. These chemicals have been linked to hormonal disruptions and other health issues. Read more about the Swedish Food Agency's recommendations on plastic.

  • Easy to clean: Glass food boxes are dishwasher safe and retain their cleanliness over time.
  • Long durability: Glass retains its quality even after years of use.
