Are Mylar Bags Toxic?

 


Mylar bags are not toxic if they aren’t if made properly.


Mylar is a polyester film that is commonly used to package food and medical supplies because it is stable, non-reactive, and acts as a barrier to moisture, air, and light. Under normal conditions of use and storage, Mylar does not produce or leak toxins. The issue is with the materials used in making low-quality Mylar how the bags are manufactured. This is not an issue with Mylar itself.


The potential toxicity that people often talk about is related to the inner layers that are not food-grade, bad adhesives, or cheap inks that could potentially migrate over time. Quality Mylar bags from companies you can trust are made with food-safe and BPA-free materials, as well as low-migration inks that comply with FDA food contact standards.
