By an overwhelming vote (571-53), the European Parliament first approved a new draft law proposed by the European Commission banning the use of disposable plastic straws until 2021. Nowadays, there are many kinds of environmental protection straws in the market. I decided to analyze all kinds of environmental protection straws in depth. Bamboo vs metal etc. How to choose the bulk straws.
1. Stainless steel straw
Stainless steel straw is the first environmental protection straw. There is a big price difference of different stainless steel straws. The reason is the different grade of raw materials ,and the common stainless steel items are 304 and 316L!
304: edible grade, low price but not acid resistant
316L: medical grade, high price, relatively acid and corrosion resistant.
Stainless steel straws is very durable, not fragile. But there are three main disadvantages:
We can’t see the interior of the stainless steel straws , and it’s difficult to confirm whether it’s cleaned. 2. Stainless steel straw is high hardness, which is uncomfortable when touching teeth. 3. The most important point is that stainless steels straw is easy to scrap. It’s easy to breed bacteria when it is scratched!
2. Titanium straw
The characteristics of titanium are “light weight”, “high hardness” and “strong corrosion resistance”. Although it has the same defects as stainless steel straw, and it is difficult to confirm whether it is cleaned or not, but “light weight” will be a great attraction. The corrosion resistance is even better than stainless steel in all aspects, but titanium is aerospace material ，so the price is very high.
3. Glass straw
Glass straw is absolutely the net beauty of the straw industry. Of course, no one is perfect, so is the straw. It is easy to be crushed when put in the bag. If you have the habit of biting the straw , you will “bleed” if you are not careful.
4. Silica gel straw
Silica gel straw is a new produc . It can be called yoga master of straw industry ，because of its soft material. However, it is not easy to clean, and it is easy to hide dirt and scale after long-term use. It should be replaced regularly!
6. Paper straw
The advantages of paper straw are low price, biodegradable, and will not cause environmental pollution. But the disadvantage is that no matter how environment friendly the paper straw is, it’s a disposable product, and it’s still a waste of resources. It also has the material safety problems, we can’t know if its made by good paper materials. We can only discard the straw when its dirty or been used .
Bamboo straws are the most natural products of all environmental protection straws, and it doesn’t matter if they are left in nature. The bamboo is a pure natural material, there is no material safety problem. Its from natural and we can smell the natural when we use it. Some bamboo straws are painted for beauty. We recommended to buy the natural color for safety. At present, most of them are bamboos straws viewnam bulk in the market. The disadvantages of bamboos straws viewnam bulk are that they are not uniform in size and untidy apperance.
In order to solve these problems, CTBAMBOO , a Chinese local company, has developed bamboo straws, which is 100% natural material and produced by assembly line machines. It has uniform size and neat appearance and can be mass produced. If you need customized logo, we can make it for you to print the logo on bamboo straws . Bamboo straws are cheap , light, environmental ,and recycle use ,that is the reasonwhy people choose bamboo straws. The most important, we can clean the bamboo straws in dishwasher machine.
