Hi I'm Lena, CEO of Eco Peaceful, LLC. I am a passionate vegan environmentalist who believes that manufacturers should be responsible to produce quality products that last a very long time & package their products in an eco-friendly manner so wild animals can live their lives in their natural environment After watching Plastic Planet and other documentaries I was so shocked what plastic does to the animals and humans, so I decided to change my lifestyle: I started to grow my food to reduce plastic consumption and started my EcoPeaceful zero-waste business in 2012 to manufacture organic, natural and non-toxic products that are packaged plastic-free and in the most Eco-friendly way possible. If you make your own food & drinks (tea/coffee, smoothies...) then mason jars are an important part of your daily life. What you may not know is that the common canning metal lids have a PVC/vinyl coating with a plastisol/PVC seal gasket. That has always bothered me since the liquid in the jar vapors and drops back down into my drink or food. I became especially concerned when I saw that the vinyl coating was flaking off just from putting vinegar in a glass jar (it was not even touching the coated metal lid). I was inspired to look for alternative lid solutions. Plastic caps lids are also not a good option since the plastic degrade and shed microplastics & release toxic chemicals; BPA-free is rarely truly BPA-free and/or replaced with worse chemical(s). Plastic lids are breakable, heat-sensitive (can't be boil to sanitize); and the most important for me - pollutes the environment and harms/kills wildlife. Using stainless steel lids with a silicone gasket also gives me peace-of-mind since they are built to last 'forever', so no need to be wasteful by constantly throwing away and buying metal or plastic lids.
