Risk Assessment Comparison

Glass Pantry Jar Benefits Conventional Plastic Bin Drawbacks
Superior Health & Safety Hidden Health Risks
Inert American Glass. Provides a biologically safe environment that does not leach chemicals or shed microplastics into your flour or cookies. Chemical Migration. Large plastic bins often release plasticizers and "new plastic" smells into dry goods over time.
Guaranteed Lifetime Durability Short Lifespan & High Waste
