Let me tell you a little more about why a stainless steel food container is a perfect reusable container:
Stainless Steel is recyclable and effectively recycled. That may sound obvious, but the fact is that plastic is recyclable, but NOT always effectively recycled. There are 7 different number classifications for plastic and every geographic area recycles different numbers, yes to some, no to others. Not all plastic recycling is profitable enough to be done with gusto! Stainless steel recycling is profitable and there is just one kind of steel, so the process is done more consistently and effectively.
Stainless Steel is durable. It will keep your sandwich or fruit or chips from getting smooshed in your bag, you can drop it, step on it, whatever - and it can take it! This is big deal because your container will last and last, it is not a single-use or short-term disposable item. Although Stainless Steel if effectively recycled, it is best if it is used indefinitely and never goes back into the recycling pool. The hope is that when you are done with your Stainless Steel container you pass it on to someone else who gets a lifetime of use out of it as well. Products that are durable and built to last are as green as it gets.
Stainless Steel is lightweight; this might be a surprise to some of you who do not currently own any stainless steel products. You will not notice a difference between a stainless steel and plastic container, they are about the same weight, so do not worry about sending your child to school with a stainless steel container in their lunch, they will not have to drag their backpacks to and from school.
Stainless Steel does not leach like plastic and aluminum have been accused of. Look, I am not going to get into the dangers of plastic and aluminum, but if you have watched a newscast or read a newspaper in the last year you know there is quite a lot of talk about it. Stainless Steel is what is used in the medical industry because it is ultra safe.
Stainless Steel is dishwasher safe; you will see this is a re-occurring benefit of many of the items GreenPartySupply.com sells, because it is a deal-breaker for me personally. I will not actually use it if I cannot put it in the dishwasher. I will say initially that I will hand-wash something for the sake of the planet, but the reality is it will sit in my sink for days while I plan a time to do some hand washing, I will eventually wash it by hand and then the next time I go to use it, I will choose another product that can go in the dishwasher. So, dishwasher safe is biggie!
Stainless Steel is futuristic. Every outfit of the future, car of the future and house of the future is always shiny silver, so if you carry a lunch box full of stainless steel you will be very futuristic! Hey person with the futuristic lunch, you are super cool! It will be fun to hear that everyday!
I know what you are thinking; stainless steel is so awesome, I only wish I could buy more of it, well, you can! We also carry the whole line of Klean Kanteen Reusable Stainless Steel Water Bottles!
