All of our glass teapots are made from high-quality borosilicate glass. The glass is known as sustainable, long-lasting and heat-resistant. But those aren’t the only reasons why we love this material. These are the four reasons why we use borosilicate glass for our teapots!

What is borosilicate glass?

Borosilicate glass is a special kind of glass that doesn’t crack under strong temperature changes, like regular glass. Therefore, it’s perfect for holding hot drinks like tea. When handled with care, borosilicate glass can last for years.

Why do we use borosilicate glass for our teapots?

1) Borosilicate glass is strong

When handled properly, borosilicate glass can last for years. It’s a strong and durable choice for glassware that is used daily and it is lightweight. Nice and handy!

2) Borosilicate glass is readily available

The glass is made from two chemicals: boron trioxide and silica. These materials are plentiful, so the environmental impact is small. They are also very safe to use!

3) Borosilicate glass is resistant to acid erosion

Some drinks can cause acid erosion, but borosilicate glass is resistant to acid! No need to worry about harmful toxins releasing into your cup of tea.

4)  We can get creative with our teapot designs!

Borosilicate glass is more malleable than other types of glass, which allows us to get creative with our teapot designs!
