I read that plastic
products aren't microwave-safe. What about
Tupperware? |
|
|
We are aware of confusing
reports about the use of plastic products. We can assure
you that all Tupperware products meet or surpass Federal
Government safety standards in each country they are
sold.
Tupperware uses material strictly meant for
microwave use and adheres to stringent regulations
imposed by worldwide bodies, including the Toxic
Substances Control Act Inventory (TSCA) in the US, the
European Inventory of Existing Chemical Substances
(EINECS) and the Japanese Invenotry
(ENCS) | |

I've heard something
about plastic containers containing dioxins which are
dangerous when used in the microwave. Is it true? |
|
|
Health and
safety are priorities at Tupperware. Tests have shown
that there is no indication that Tupperware food
storage, preparation and serving containers contain
dioxins and no reason to believe that dioxins could be
present in these products.
Rest assured, you can
use Tupperware products with peace-of-mind. For over 6
decades, millions of households the world over can
attest to that! |

|
Are all Tupperware products safe
for microwave use? |
|
|
All products
designed for microwave use are labeled on the bottom and
the seal with the words 'Microwave Re-heatable' or
'Microwave Cooking'. |
|
|
|
What about using Tupperware
products not designated for microwave use? |
|
|
Though there are
no known health risks, we strongly recommend that you
use only products specifically designed for microwave
use.
Using the appropriate product not only
results in optimal performance but also prevents product
damage. The high heat generated by foods in a microwave
oven can melt or warp non-microwave safe materials. More
importantly, this damage poses a safety hazard that can
cause accidents & injuiries to the user.
