Avent introduces BPA-free bottle

August 8, 2008

In July, Avent introduced a BPA-free bottle made from Polyether Sulphone (PES) – a BPA Free material with a natural golden-colored tint.

Last I had heard, Avent had no plans to make a BPA-free version of their popular bottle. I am glad to see they had a change of heart.

You can purchase the BPA-free Avent bottle on Amazon.com
