About The Smart Baby Range
Options For Health, a proudly Australian owned company, brings to Australia ‘Smart baby’ a range of quality baby bottles, trainer cups and accessories that are free of chemicals Bisphenol A (BPA), PVC, phthalates, nitrosamines and are stamped with lead free ink.
Smart Baby chooses to use the highest quality materials on the market today for their Smart Baby bottles, polyethersulfone (PES) plastic.
PES is a relatively new plastic to the baby bottle market and combines the best of what science and industry have to offer. PES is now being chosen by world leading baby bottle manufactures because of its exceptional durability and high resistance to temperatures. Technical research shows that PES can withstand temperatures of up to 204 degrees C.
PES plastic passes boiling water sterilization tests successfully and is safe to put in top rack of dishwasher. Dishwasher chemicals will not degrade or scratch this high quality plastic.
PES plastic is a soft honey coloured plastic and is not artificially coloured. This honey colour makes for easy recognition of a BPA free baby bottle, compared to the regular clear polycarbonate (PC) baby bottle that contains BPA.
Your baby is starting a new life so why not start off using materials that you know are safer and do not leach the toxic chemical Bisphenol A or any other chemicals.
