Silicone is the superior food storage option in virtually every way, and this new option on HomesFan™ might be the best available.
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. these chemicals include:
Fortunately, you now have a healthier option. Food grade silicone, which is what HomesFan™ bags are made entirely of, is a more flexible, sustainable, and safer alternative to plastic, so it’s safe for people and the planet. Unique by design, Homesfan™ Reusable Silicone Food Storage Bag is engineered to get people to rethink the plastic in their lives.
Food grade silicone is a non-toxic type of silicone that doesn’t contain any chemical fillers or byproducts, making it safe for use with food. Silicon, the naturally occurring chemical element that makes up silicone, is a metalloid, which means it has properties of both metals and non-metals and is the second most abundant element in the earth’s crust, after oxygen.
The silicone molecule is comprised of silicon and oxygen. Due to its resiliency, non-porous surface and sustainability, food grade silicone is kinda like the Superman of silicones.
While mason jars and other glass containers are great for plastic-free storage, they can break, take up a lot of space, and are inconvenient for taking on the go. Homesfan™ Reusable Silicone Food Storage Bag make it easy to store your food at home or on-the-go while keeping what you’re eating away from plastic.
No. In fact, most say it’s closer to the rubber family than plastic. Food grade silicone, is free of BPA, BPS, and phthalates. Aka, dangerous-to-your-bod fillers.
Food-grade silicone is made without petroleum-based chemicals, BPA, BPS, or fillers. It’s safe to store food, put in the microwave, freezer, oven, and dishwasher. You can even cook right in your Homesfan™ Reusable Silicone Food Storage Bag, sous vide style. It won’t leak, break down, or degrade over time.
This is why food grade silicone is so much better for health and our environment. It’s also why we’re so passionate about our repurposing program to make sure this Reusable Silicone Food Storage Bag can live up to its "endlessly reusable" reputation, even if it means being reused as playground pebbles!
Food grade silicone, the material we use to make Reusable Silicone Food Storage Bag, is free of chemicals like BPA and BPS.
Yes, and the FDA even stated that raw materials which go into making silicone are safe for food grade applications. But let’s be honest: while silicone replacements alone won’t fix our global single-use plastic problems, swapping single-use for reusable silicone is a step in the right direction.
