We were getting frustrated about our label consumption and its impact on the environment. To reduce the amount of label material used on milk bottles, our research team introduced a concept: the 2% label.
We’ve added some videos how Glass bottles are put to use again.
Hormonal imbalance
Plastic pouches, especially over time or with heat exposure, can potentially leach chemicals like BPA into your milk. Studies have shown that even low levels of BPA exposure can disrupt hormones.
Micro-plastics
Over time, plastic can degrade into tiny particles called micro-plastics. While the exact health impact of micro-plastics in food is still being investigated, some studies raise concerns about potential health risks
Flavor Transfer
Over time, heat exposure can make plastic slightly porous, This can pick up nearby smells and slightly change the taste of milk & quality.
Reduced Leaching
Glass bottles are inert, meaning they won't release any chemicals into your milk, ensuring a purer, healthier consumption experience.
No Micro-plastic Risk
Glass doesn't degrade into microplastics, eliminating that potential health concern.
Preserves Freshness
Glass is non-porous, meaning it won't absorb odors or flavors. This helps maintain the milk's natural, fresh taste for a longer period.
