Creative Bath Creates Durable, Clear Beverage Dispensers made with Eastman Tritan Copolyester
Friday 29. April 2011 - Shatter-resistant Tritan enables carefree indoor-outdoor entertaining
Creative Bath Products, Inc., a market leader, designer and manufacturer of decorative home furnishing and storage products, introduces two beverage dispensers made with Eastman Tritan copolyester into its Creative Ware collection a single spigot, 3-gallon dispenser and a double spigot dispenser including two side-by-side 1.5-gallon reservoirs. Tritan is a new-generation copolyester that provides clarity, toughness and heat and chemical resistance for housewares and small appliances. Tritan also is free of bisphenol A (BPA).
The large, clear beverage dispensers include wide-mouth lids for easy filling and leak-proof dispensing spigots to enable quick drink refills. The dispenser bases and internal ice columns can be filled with ice to keep beverages cool and to avoid dilution.
“For our customers who frequently host gatherings and are busy entertaining guests, it is essential that our products provide ease of use and peace of mind,” said Bob Weiss, chief operating officer, Creative Bath. “By switching production of the beverage dispenser from polycarbonate to Eastman Tritan copolyester, we are able to provide our customers with a durable product that is resistant to breaks and cracks, as well as one that meets BPA-free demands.”
Previously manufactured with polycarbonate, the beverage dispenser made with Eastman Tritan copolyester provides added durability and inherent toughness that creates a shatter-resistant product for use indoors and outdoors. In addition, because Tritan is lightweight, the beverage dispenser is easier to handle when full.
Creative Bath also valued the clarity, stain and odor resistance of Eastman Tritan copolyester so the dispenser withstands the discoloration effects of teas or other dark beverages while maintaining its aesthetic appeal. Tritan also is heat- and chemical-resistant so the dispenser won’t crack, craze or whiten after frequent washings with dishwashing detergents.
The beverage dispenser is available in warehouse clubs and specialty chain stores nationwide.
