Grassroots on BPA
Over the past couple of days there has been a lot of information and misinformation in the press on BPA and plastic bottles in general. For our member stores this sent a lot of customers to them trying to get the facts straight. We petitioned our foremost partners in the hydration industry, Nalgene and Camelbak, for their side of the story and received overwhelming support on the issue. We would like to commend both Nalgene and Camelbak for taking the time to educate not only the public but Grassroots members specifically on this issue. We received very timely replies when these companies were scrambling to issue Press Releases and clarify the real issue of BPA to the American public. We urge all consumers to educate themselves on the issue of BPA in hydration systems and to consider the information that is supplied from the manufacturers, as they have the public interest in mind with their products and thoroughly test their products. Please review the links below for more information on this very important topic. Thank you! Grassroots Outdoor Alliance
