High Exposure Risk — Why This Product Category Matters

Tap water in the US contains detectable PFAS in over 45% of systems tested by the USGS. Plastic water bottles leach BPA, BPS, and microplastics — especially when heated. The average American gets a significant portion of their total plastic exposure from drinking water and beverage containers.

Why We Recommend This Product

Glass is the safest material for water bottles. Soma's borosilicate glass is durable and chemical-free. The silicone sleeve provides protection without adding plastic to the water contact path.
