Unsafe Baby Bottles by Avent
It has just come to me that because people have stopped complaining about Bisphenol A(BPA) being in plastic bottles, then Avent has slowed down the introduction of SAFE baby Bottles and it is now expected that the UNSAFE Baby Bottles will still be in Stores until 2009.
Your Baby’s Health
It is imperative that the momentum is maintained and that you do contact the australian Health Minister Nicola Roxon and send her an email expressing your concern. The email of Nicola Roxon is in another post, I will link the post at the end of this article. Also Contact Avent and complain about not introducing Safe Baby bottles at a more rapid pace.
Stay tuned, more information to follow….
I have just been introduced to a wonderful Australian company Milk and Tickles.. They are offering BPA free Bottles to help protect our babies..

Green to Grow BPA Free baby bottles – Available in Australia!
Just the milk, please.
Hold the chemicals!!
Green to Grow baby bottles are the modern parents’ solution when searching for a safe baby bottle. Already receiving rave reviews in the US they have finally hit Australian shores! Green to Grow baby bottles are specifically formulated to be free of Bisphenol-A (BPA), Phthalates, PVC, Nitrosamines and Lead.
What is BPA?
Bisphenol A is a developmental, reproductive, and neural toxicant found in polycarbonate plastic—the material used to make the vast majority of baby bottles. Green to Grow developed a baby bottle that is free from this hormone-disrupting chemical.
So what are these bottles made from?
They are made from a safer, more durable plastic called PES (Polyethersulfone) which isn’t porous or reactive. It neither leaches chemicals nor absorbs odours. PES can withstand changes in temperature, remaining stable over many uses, including hundreds of stints in the dishwasher and steriliser (these bottles will last more than 1 child!). Green to Grow teats are made from the highest grade medical silicone.
So, why trust Green to Grow?
The founders of Green to Grow (parents themselves) believe that parents will make the best decisions for their child when equipped with the knowledge and access to healthy alternatives at reasonable prices. Green to Grow offer parents this knowledge by periodically publishing the results of independent laboratory chemical tests for their products on their website.
Green to Grow bottles have passed the European EN 14350 standard – the highest safety certification standard in the world. By working with experts around the world, performing thorough testing with third-party laboratories, and accepting your child’s health and safety as a personal responsibility – you won’t need to worry any more.
Green to Grow has also demonstrated its commitment to sustainability, responsible manufacturing and ethical business practices in a variety of ways:
• 100% recycled paper packaging
• all packaging is printed using soy inks
• member of the “1% for the Planet Program”, donating 1% of all sales to varied charities
• creation of the “Bottles to Babies Program”
Green to Grow has been awarded the influential PTPA (Parent Tested Parent Approved) Media Inc’s Seal of Approval for excellence in parenting products for Summer 2008 Green Product Category. The winners of the prestigious Seal of Approval from PTPA Media are selected based on value, functionality, quality and appeal of the product.
