When we talk about adherence to health standards, we mean the following points:
- The thermos manufacture:
- Using healthy raw materials: you must make sure that the thermos is made of non-harmful materials, and it doesn’t contain carcinogenic asbestos.
- The cover and accumulated bacteria: the press flask is more difficult to clean, due to the difficulty of accessing and cleaning the internal components of the pump, while the flip-cap thermos is better in regards to this aspect.
- Bacteria accumulation inside the thermos: internal components lack tightness my causes accumulation of bacteria into the cap or inside the thermos itself -in the space between the outer body of the thermos and the inner bottle.
- Make the thermos using components that withstand high temperatures without interacting with the drink: there are some flasks that change the taste of the drink due to the reaction of poor rubber used in manufacturing, and the alternative is to use pure silicon in the manufacture of parts that have direct contact with drinks.
- Thermos design:
Be sure to buy a thermos that you can easily clean its internal parts to avoid any bacteria formation that may get directly into the drinks and cause harmful effects on health.
- Not using asbestos in the thermal insulation system:
You should look for brands that do not use asbestos in the thermal insulation system inside the thermos, due to the serious health damages that may be caused by when we use Asbestos in the manufacture of the thermos.
