clean Silicone is non-toxic and hypo allergenic. Silicone has few open pores, so it does not harbor
or promote bacteria or fungus growth. Because of its high heat resistance, silicone can be boiled to
sterilize, is dishwasher safe, and washer and dryer safe. Silicone does not fade or retain odor, and is
sturdy and easy to clean.

BPA-free Due to recent concerns regarding BPA, many parents are switching to BPA Free
children’s products. Silicone offers just that solution. Silicone does not contain toxic chemicals like
bisphenol-A, lead, PVC and phthalates.

safe Silicone is basically made up of silicon, a natural element present in sand, quartz and rock,
which, after oxygen, is the most abundant element on earth. Silicon is transformed into silicone when
combined with oxygen, carbon and hydrogen. Because it is an inert material, it does not react with
food or beverages, or produce any hazardous fumes. It’s non-toxic, hypo allergenic, does not promote
bacteria or fungus growth, and it does not transmit taste to food.

green Silicone does not decompose but it is recyclable - although probably not through your
city-wide recycling program. There are many specialty recycling facilities that recycle silicone. (Send your Silikids products back to us and we’ll recycle it for you!) Silicone is very durable so you won’t have to worry about disposal for a long time, thus promoting reuse and less waste.

hypo allergenic Silicone is also hypo allergenic. It’s inert so it doesn’t react to any other
materials and it is stable so it doesn’t disintegrate or react when sitting beside something else.
