Glass in general is one of the safest ways to store food. There is no risk of
toxins leaching into the food, as can be the case with plastic, and
there is no staining. Glass is 100% recyclable and sustainable.
About borosilicate glass:
Borosilicate glass is a type of glass which includes at least five percent boric oxide.
The boric oxide makes the glass resistant to extreme temperatures, and
also improves its resistance to chemical corrosion.
Borosilicate glass can handle both extreme heat and cold, although it is not invincible, of course. It will
crack if subjected to very sudden and radical temperature fluctuations,
or if it is dropped. It is more likely to crack or snap than to
shatter, however, making it generally easier and safer to clean up than shattered glass.
