What stainless steel is used?

Our stainless steel products are made from durable 18/8 food-grade stainless steel. It is rust-free and one of the healthiest, safest forms of stainless steel.

Are EcoCocoon products BPA-free?

Yes. EcoCocoon products are BPA-free. Food-contact surfaces are made from high-quality stainless steel, with food-grade silicone and other BPA-free materials used where required.

EcoCocoon products are designed to provide a safe, durable alternative to plastic lunchware.

Is the silicone food-safe?

Yes. Our seals are made from food-grade silicone, and the Bento 2 and Bento 5 silicone have been tested to FDA and LFGB standards. Read more about what food-grade silicone is and what it means here.

What safety testing is carried out?

Yes. EcoCocoon uses high-quality, food-grade stainless steel that is suitable for everyday foods, including acidic foods such as fruit, tomato-based dishes and yoghurt.

For best care, avoid leaving highly acidic or salty foods in the container for extended periods. After use, wash and dry thoroughly.

Is stainless steel safe for food?

Yes. 18/8 food-grade stainless steel is widely used for food storage. It doesn't leach chemicals or leave a taste.

Can stainless steel be used with acidic foods?

Yes, but don't leave very acidic or salty food in the container for long periods. Wash it after each use.

Where are EcoCocoon products made?

EcoCocoon is an Australian-owned and operated brand, based in Brisbane, Queensland. Our products are thoughtfully designed in Australia and manufactured by carefully selected manufacturing partners in China.

We work closely with our manufacturers to ensure EcoCocoon products meet our standards for quality, safety and durability.

What should I do if my product becomes damaged?

Stop using it if the damage could affect safe use, such as flaking, splits or sharp edges. Contact us at hello@ecococoon.com.au with photos. Some parts, like seals and latches, can be replaced.
