Harm of plastic straws:

Plastic pollution is a major global environmental problem. Plastic straws are the most common kind of plastic waste. Every country in the world consumes a lot of plastic straws every day, for example, the United States consumes an average of 1.6 straws every day. In addition to the waste straw that has not been properly treated, it will also pose a threat to the environment and biology. Plastic straws are of poor quality and dangerous to health!

Ordinary polypropylene plastic can withstand the high temperature above 100℃, and it will not give off plastic smell when heated. In order to reduce production costs, some unscrupulous manufacturers often use recycled raw materials for production. When this straw is used, the toxic and harmful substances in the body will subsequently dissolve into the water. If used for a long time, it will cause harm to the liver and nervous system of human body.

If the straw we use will give off a plastic smell after hot drinking, then there must be quality problems with this straw.

3. Colored straws are harmful.

Some lawless elements will cover up the straws made of recycled materials by dyeing them, so that the straws will be colored. In this way, the brighter the color, the greater the security risk.
