SIGG admits bottles contain BPA

Examiner.com: "Check your SIGG bottle! SIGG admits that before August 2008, the inside liner of it’s wildly popular stainless steel bottles contained BPA
In California, stores such as Whole Foods, REI and Mollie Stones have been busy pulling the old Bisphenol A (BPA) bottles from shelves. BPA is a hormone disrupting ingredient that is banned in Canada, but not in the U.S. Stores that sell SIGG bottles are now offering customers a FREE replacement or refund."

It’s easy to check and see if you purchased a SIGG containing BPA. Simply take a look at the inside rim (liner) of your SIGG bottle, if it is GOLD, then you are entitled to a replacement. The GOLD rim liners are the bottles in question. You can also get a FREE replacement through the SIGG website on-line at www.mysigg.com. The new and BPA-free SIGG bottles, according to SIGG, have beige colored liners. SIGG says it started selling the new BPA-free bottles in August of 2008.
