Why Silicone is Better for the People and Planet

There’s no question that single-use plastic is harmful to the environment and our bodies. They end up in landfills where it takes over 500 years for each of those bags to break down.  Plastic that doesn’t end up in a landfill often ends up in the ocean and enters the food chain which is a big concern for human health. The harsh chemicals and toxins found in plastic can lead to cancer, infertility, immune disorders and more.   

Most people use Ziploc bags as single-use items. Luckily, there are sustainable and reusable alternatives to conventional single-use plastic items like Ziploc bags. Reusable silicone bags are the closest to Ziploc bags, with the benefit that they are an environmentally friendly and a convenient option. 

Silicone is durable, and more ocean-friendly than plastic. It lasts longer and stands up better against heat and cold than plastics. It’s safer for your family, too, with no estrogen-mimicking toxins like BPA to worry about. It is odorless, stain-resistant, hypoallergenic, and has no open pores to harbor harmful bacteria.
