The answer is it comes from quartz, an ingredient found in sand. All silicone cookware sold is made of food grade silicone. Silicone rubber is easy to clean, and won\u2019t require harsh, damaging solvents that can pollute the air or water. A distinct advantage of silicone is its durability. Because silicone is so durable, it does not easily biodegrade or decompose. While normal plastics break down into dangerous micro plastic pieces that can be ingested by wildlife and ocean life, silicone doesn\u2019t break down much at all.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.7999999999999998; text-align: justify; margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 8pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">So while you usually think of biodegradability of products as a good thing, you actually do not want silicon to be degradable. Here is why: If it was degradable, then it would release particles from food containers when you eat, and that&#8217;s not healthy.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.7999999999999998; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><a style=\"text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/dtcworld.com\/my\/products?tag_id=&amp;search_key=silicon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: #1155cc; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: underline; -webkit-text-decoration-skip: none; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">See products made with silicon<\/span><\/a><\/p><h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.7999999999999998; text-align: center; margin-top: 18pt; margin-bottom: 8pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #111111; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Stainless Steel<\/span><\/h2><figure style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/dtcapi.serverdtc.com\/storage\/blog-images\/Stainless_steel_20210804172845.jpg\" alt=\"Stainless Steel\" width=\"750\" height=\"750\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Stainless Steel<\/figcaption><\/figure><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.7999999999999998; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Stainless steel is not exactly a material you would ordinarily couple with the notion of sustainability, but the good news is that it is. In fact, it is one of the worlds&#8217; most sustainable metals, simply because it is corrosion-resistant and extremely durable. Furthermore, stainless steel can be recycled into new products without losing any of its properties, thus making sure the quality of the metal stays the same even after it has been recycled.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.7999999999999998; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><a style=\"text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/dtcworld.com\/my\/products?tag_id=&amp;search_key=steel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #1155cc; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: underline; -webkit-text-decoration-skip: none; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">See products made with stainless steel<\/span><\/a><\/p><figure style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/dtcapi.serverdtc.com\/storage\/blog-images\/WheatStraw_20210804173016.jpg\" alt=\"Wheat Straw\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wheat Straw<\/figcaption><\/figure><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.7999999999999998; text-align: center; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: bold; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Wheat Straw<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.7999999999999998; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Wheat straw plastic is an eco friendly material; a smart, environmentally friendly alternative to plastic. It is a premium food grade material and is completely BPA free and has FDA approval. The impact of regular plastic on the environment is devastating, and wheat straw plastic is an awesome alternative. It is made from a by-product of wheat production, namely wheat straw. It has many applications like wheat straw food containers, wheat straw drinking straws, wheat straw plastic plates, reusable coffee cups and many more. Wheat straw is the byproduct that is left over after the wheat harvest, and by using it to make a plastic like substance, it is an ideal zero waste option. Here is the cool part, wheat straws can be melted back into a pulp, which is then used to create more products again, and again. And this process requires almost no energy.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.7999999999999998; text-align: justify; margin-top: 10pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><a style=\"text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/dtcworld.com\/my\/?s=wheat&amp;id=20692&amp;post_type=product\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #1155cc; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: underline; -webkit-text-decoration-skip: none; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">See products made with wheat straw<\/span><\/a><\/p><h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.7999999999999998; text-align: center; margin-top: 18pt; margin-bottom: 8pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #111111; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Wood<\/span><\/h2><figure style=\"width: 972px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/dtcapi.serverdtc.com\/storage\/blog-images\/Wood_20210804173044.jpg\" alt=\"Wood\" width=\"972\" height=\"1056\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wood<\/figcaption><\/figure><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.7999999999999998; text-align: justify; margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 8pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Wood is known to be one of the most naturally renewable energy sources, which means it will have less of an impact on the environment compared to other materials. The coolest thing about trees is they absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and release oxygen back to the atmosphere, which lowers the overall carbon footprint of wood. As a &#8216;carbon store&#8217;, once wood absorbs CO2, it is stored there and remains out of the atmosphere. Besides that, trees are a natural, renewable source of material that grows all over the world, meaning it can be sourced locally in almost every country. This drastically limits travel, which is among the biggest culprits of carbon emission. In short, buying products made out of wood is great not only for limiting the carbon emission impact in the world, but also for absorbing already existing CO2.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.7999999999999998; text-align: justify; margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 8pt;\"><a style=\"text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/dtcworld.com\/my\/products?tag_id=&amp;search_key=wood\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #1155cc; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: underline; -webkit-text-decoration-skip: none; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">See products made with wood<\/span><\/a><\/p><h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.7999999999999998; text-align: center; margin-top: 18pt; margin-bottom: 8pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #111111; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Zinc<\/span><\/h2><figure style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/dtcapi.serverdtc.com\/storage\/blog-images\/Zinc_20210804173103.jpg\" alt=\"Zinc\" width=\"600\" height=\"597\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Zinc<\/figcaption><\/figure><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.7999999999999998; text-align: justify; margin-top: 12pt; margin-bottom: 8pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Zinc is a material that is naturally present in rock, soil, water, and air.
