Sep 28, 2017 at 15:06 | comment | added | Wimateeka | I thought about that, and I was wondering if that would be what I have to do. I have reached out to at least one glass artist, and I will see what they have to say. | |
Sep 28, 2017 at 14:45 | comment | added | Henry Taylor | Seems like it would be easier to create a similar lunchbox in a size which fits already existing glass containers than to try to create glass containers in the size needed by this lunchbox. Collect a set of glass containers with approximately the same size relationships to each other as the plastic containers in this product. Then scale the lunchbox design to fit those containers and craft it out of leather, wood or resin. Lot less work and the food-contacting containers are all industrial quality glass. | |

Sep 28, 2017 at 13:03 | comment | added | Wimateeka | @walrus, I read a book about plastic (as well as talked to chemical engineering friends) and BPA free and food safe aren't good enough declarations. Glass is a guarenteed inert substance. You can read an article (by the author of the book) about it here | |
Sep 28, 2017 at 9:02 | comment | added | walrus | What exactly is the issue with plastic in this case? They claim that the plastic is food safe, BPA free and recyclable. | |
Sep 28, 2017 at 3:58 | comment | added | rebusB | Probably the food safe question belongs in its own thread... | |

We really can't tell you companies to reach out to for this sort of thing. We're a crafts site - we make stuff. We don't hire people to make stuff.
