Yes, we only use best in class food safe materials!
The plastic we use (ABS PA-757KF) is certified food-safe. It has been tested by TÜV Rheinland under strict EU and German standards for food contact. The tests were done with water, oil, and acidic solutions at high temperatures (10 days at 40 °C) – conditions much harsher than how AutoSprout is used.
All results passed with a wide safety margin:
No BPA or phthalates
No harmful leaching of chemicals like acrylonitrile or butadiene
No polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) detected
Well below EU migration limits for metals and organics
Since AutoSprout only uses fresh cold water during sprouting (3–6 days), the safety margin is even higher.
👉 The real food safety focus isn’t the plastic – it’s keeping your sprouts fresh and clean. That’s why we recommend:
Rinsing and cleaning the machine between each cycle
Using high-quality sprouting seeds
Checking sprouts daily for freshness
