BPA-free blender container ahead of the curve

摘要

While the BPA(bisphenol-A)debate continues unabated this summer(www.immnet.com/articles/2008/May/3645),one company took the lead in converting its products as early as last October.That's when Vita-Mix(Olmsted Falls,OH)announced it would begin using a BPA-free copolyester material called Tritan from Eastman(Kingsport,TN;www.eastman.com)instead of polycarbonate to mold the containers for the newly developed Vita-Mix 5200 blender.
