​Enviro Glass Straws come in three different lengths (6, 8, or 10 inch) and two different diameters (9.5 mm or 12 mm).  All of the straws are made from borosilicate glass, which is the strongest commercially available (cooking grade). The straws come in two different styles; a straight or bent version, and can be purchased individually or as a combo set (two straws and a cleaning brush).

Made by hand in British Columbia, Canada.
About the Glass:

Borosilicate glass is often used for high-quality beverage glassware and kitchenware (a popular brand name is Pyrex®). Borosilicate glassware has increased durability and has microwave and dishwasher compatibility. It contains no lead or other toxins and is the highest grade of glass commercially available.  Borosilicate glass can be used with either hot or cold beverages.

Although these straws are durable and strong, they are still made from glass.  Treat them as you would your glass drink ware and they will last you for life.  Adult supervision is required when allowing children to use glass straws.  Pairing your straws with an Enviro Lid greatly reduces the chances of children using their straws as play things

Straw Functions:
  • The 9.5 mm diameter is great for ice tea, juice, coffee, hot tea, martinis, etc.
  • The 12 mm diameter is great for smoothies or thicker liquids.

Straw Lengths:
  • 6 inch: For small cups, small (250ml)  mason jars and cocktail drinks.  Your six inch straw will jazz up your martinis!  Use it with an Enviro Lid to make a sippy cup or a no-spill on-the-go cup for your children.
  • 8 Inch: For regular size (500ml) mason jars, regular size everyday glass ware and reusable to-go cups.  This is the “go to” size for most adult everyday drinking needs.
  • 10 inch: For large (24oz) cups, beer or cider bottles, large to-go cups and generally your taller glass ware.
How to clean glass straws:
  • Use a straw brush and lots of hot soapy water immediately after use. Rinse. Air dry.
  • You can sanitize your straw in the dishwasher. We suggest you place it in the silverware compartment.
  • If your straw gets cloudy from mineral buildup from hard water conditions soak it in distilled white vinegar to return the glass to sparkling cleanliness.

Benefits of glass straws as opposed to stainless steel straws:
  • There is no metal taste when you drink from glass.
  • It feels nice on your mouth and lips.
  • Glass is also easy to clean and easy to know when they are dirty.
  • It's fun to see your drink rising through the straw!

Safety:
  • Glass straws are very safe for all ages to use.  For small children (children under 5), we recommend pairing it with a mason jar and an Enviro Lid, as it changes the straw into a sippy cup as opposed to a play thing.
  • It is not possible for teeth to bite through an Enviro Glass Straw.

Each Enviro Glass Straw is handmade in a home studio by a family-run business in British Columbia.
