There are a few key reasons why most plastics today have estrogenic activity (EA).

The plastic industry has followed a set of guidelines mandated by federal and state laws, best manufacturing practices, and reasonable business policies. With the increasing concerns that scientists, consumers, and now legislators have about endocrine disruption, these rules are rapidly changing. Companies that do not respond quickly and proactively are likely to lose market share (as seen with the rapid market penetration of BPA-free products starting in 2007), face class-action lawsuits (e.g. baby bottle manufacturers and retailers in 2008), or be locked out of the market because of exclusive agreements and increasing patent protection around EA-Free technologies.

Now, with the introduction of PlastiPure’s patented breakthrough EA-Free technology that addresses estrogenic chemicals at all levels of the supply chain, polymer manufacturers, processors, and retail product companies, consumers have a viable choice for safe plastic materials and products.
