Are SIGG bottles suitable for microwave use?
The bottles must not be placed in the microwave, on a hot stove, in a hot oven or in the freezer.
Can hot water be poured into an aluminum bottle?
Aluminium is an excellent conductor of heat. This means that the temperature of the liquid is also noticeable on the outside of the
drinking bottle. We therefore recommend filling it with water at a maximum temperature of 40°C.
What liquids can I store in SIGG drinking bottles?
All SIGG drinking bottles have been tested with many different types of drinks, such as acidic drinks, carbonated drinks, milk, alcohol, apple and lemon juice, etc. However, we do not recommend leaving drinks with natural fermentation processes, such as apple juice or milk, in the bottle for long periods of time. This natural process can encourage bacterial growth and create gases and strong odors that are difficult to eliminate.
Are the water bottles leak-proof?
All SIGG caps are waterproof. But caps and seals are also subject to normal wear and tear from intensive use. We recommend not washing the bottle cap in the dishwasher, but removing it, rinsing it with hot water and letting it air dry. It is often also helpful to replace the bottle seal where possible. This is available as a spare part from retailers and in our web shop.
What is the best way to clean aluminum/glass/plastic bottles?
For aluminum bottles: Use cleaning tablets or mild detergent; do not put in the dishwasher.
For glass bottles: Clean by hand only, no chlorine or bleach, use soft cloths/sponges.
For plastics ( e.g., Tritan, polypropylene): Although partially dishwasher safe, hand washing with a mild detergent is recommended to avoid damaging printing ink, etc.

BPA free water bottles - but what exactly is BPA?
BPA stands for Bisphenol A - a chemical substance that is used for the production of plastic. Which is why it can be found in water bottles or food containers. BPA is all over the news but what's the problem with Bisphenol A? Bisphenol A releases hormone-like substances into food. When ingested, these can interfere with the human hormone balance. In concrete terms, this means that the substances from BPA can have a developmentally inhibiting effect on the physical development of children, as well as promoting various diseases, regardless of age. The reason why Bisphenol A is prohibited to use in the production of baby feeding bottles. You can purchase children's drinking bottles entirely without BPA in the SIGG online shop. For the safety of you and your children. Due to the possible harmful impacts on the human body, SIGG exclusively produces water bottles that do not contain any BPA. Water bottles made out of aluminium, stainless steel and glass are free of BPA by nature.

Water bottles without plasticisers - by SIGG
You haven't heard of phthalates before? Phthalates are plasticisers, used in the production process of plastic to ensure that the plastic is elastic and flexible. Like Bisphenol A, phthalates can interfere with you hormonal balance and may promote diseases. On top of that they are harmful to the environment and can accumulate in house dust. SIGG only produces water bottles free of phthalates. That also holds true for our plastic or tritan water bottles.
