The eco cups are PLA. They are derived from a completely different source from the petrochemical plastics. While that doesn't on it's own make them completely safe, they likely have massively different properties from other plastics.
- yasman 3y agoThank you for sharing this - an interesting rabbit hole to go down. Found this with some quick googling: https://ift.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/1541-4337.12726 https://ift.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/1541-4337.12... Seems like the risk comes from additives to PLA? Seems exhausting to try and stay informed. Anyway, thanks for the info.
