How we assess products
We work from published information; we do not lab-test, and a verdict here is never a claim that we have.
Credible evidence identifies a particle source or release pathway. This describes concern within our scope, not a proven health effect.
About This Product
Babycup Sippeco Mini Open Cups (formerly First Cups) are designed for baby-led weaning. Babycup states the cups are made from polypropylene, BPA-free and phthalate-free, and made in Britain; the brand does not claim Tritan. Either way the drinking surface is plastic held in direct mouth contact, and polypropylene is a recognised source of microplastic shedding, particularly after dishwasher and steriliser cycles. The open-cup design still avoids the spouted sippy cup, which is a separate benefit for oral development. For a plastic-free drinking surface, consider a glass or stainless steel beaker.
