Insulation cups are essential daily necessities that can keep the cold and hot for a period of time, allowing people to enjoy delicious drinks during work, travel, and study. For children, choosing a suitable children’s insulation cup is also very important because it not only requires good insulation effect, but also requires the cup material to be safe and healthy, with a reasonable design and easy to use.
1. Material of insulation cup
Stainless steel insulation cups should be made of food grade 304 stainless steel, preferably with a 316 stainless steel inner liner to ensure that the amount of heavy metal dissolved in the insulated cup used to hold water does not exceed the standard, including lead. The amount of heavy metal dissolved in cups with 201 or 202 stainless steel inner liners is more than 100 times that of 304 stainless steel.
2. Safety of straws
If you plan to purchase an insulation cup with a straw, you should pay attention to the safety of the straw. Compared to ordinary children’s straw cups, the safety of the straw material in children’s insulated cups is more important. Warm water is likely to cause inferior straws to secrete substances harmful to the baby’s health. High temperature resistance and bite resistance are the types of straws required for children’s insulation cups.
3. Insulation performance
The most important thing next is insulation performance. Unlike ordinary adult insulation cups, baby’s children’s insulation cups are not suitable for filling with hot water, but are suitable for filling with water that can be consumed directly at around 42 ° C. Warm water has higher requirements for the insulation performance of children’s insulation cups. The insulation time of up to 5 hours can be considered a good children’s insulation cup.
4. With or without straps
This is really important, after all, when children go out, they need to bring insulated cups. If the water cup does not have a strap, when taking children outside to play, it can only be placed in the bag, which not only takes up space, but also troublesome to carry back and forth. If there is a strap, hanging it directly on the cart or carrying it on your own will be much more convenient.
5. The process of insulation cup
The inner and outer surfaces of a good insulated cup are polished evenly and uniformly, with exquisite workmanship at the interface. The edge of the insulated cup mouth is smooth and flat, and the rotation between the cup cover and the cup mouth should be flexible without gaps. The plastic of the cup cover should have no odor, and the appearance for children will be designed with a touch of cartoon, which is loved by children.
6. Accessories for insulation cups
Whether the plastic parts of the insulation cup are healthy and environmentally friendly is very important. It can be identified by smell. If the insulation cup is made of food grade plastic, its odor will be smaller, its surface will be bright, without burrs, its service life will be long, and it is not easy to age. PP is the best, and PPSU is better for children.
