Everything you need to know about the new stainless steel straws

You must have seen photos of cows eating plastics, fishes washed up on shore due to plastic ingestion, places of tourist attraction strewn with plastic. Everything paints a grim picture.

Why are we talking about plastics?

Plastics or Single use plastics – like PET bottles, straws, bags, etc. take up years to decompose and end up rotting in a landfill. If they find their way to the oceans, they further break into microplastics and get ingested by aquatic animals. These products contain BisphenolA (BPA), a harmful chemical found in plastics that mimics the activity of hormones and can lead to a number of reproductive disorders and other life threatening diseases, such as diabetes and heart diseases.

But you might say you still need a straw to sip your coffee or smoothie every day.

So try to imagine this:

A person using a plastic straw every day for the next 12 months – there would be 365 straws in the landfill. Multiply that with 10 years and you get 3650 straws.Now imagine if half of India’s population i.e. 6.5 billion people use 1 plastic straw every day for 10 years. That’s a lot of maths and too much plastic.

Plastic is a miracle product often misused in the retail market as a single-use product. With the increasing concerns related to climate change and the harmful effects of plastic on environment and health, we at Suncity Sheets Pvt. Ltd. have taken corrective measures for sustainable alternatives.
