Q. Is my fegg suitable to enjoy hot drinks from? A. Yes, your fegg is safe for use from -20 to +110 degrees celsius! Of course, if you put very hot liquid in it your fegg will heat up and may be too hot to hold comfortably.
Q. fegg is made from fda approved food-grade silicone. Why is fegg considered sustainable? A. Firstly, fegg is reusable – not single use & disposable! Secondly, silicone is arguably more environmentally friendly than plastic in kitchen applications, as plastic is not as hardy or long lasting as silicone is. Silicone is more inert that plastic, which means it has a lower chance of leaching chemicals into food when used for food storage. Lastly, silicone also endures extreme fluctuations in temperatures - from very cold to oven hot - without melting, cracking or otherwise degrading.
