Did silicone turn white when strechable not good silicone ?

1,some clients have been contacting us saying the mat is not 100% silicone since, when you pinch it, it turns white. This is a method for testing if silicone products are 100% silicone。

    first of all, our products are 100% silicone, it is no doubt.Second, there are two kinds of silicone, the FDA standard silicone will turn white, LFGB standard silicone is not turned white, the two kinds of silicone is all food grade, the FDA is American standard, LFGB is European standard,different market test requirements for silicone, so silicone contains some elements of the component is different.

2,So ours is FDA standar,Which means that it is not 100% as the FDA allows some fillers, correct?

     No, the FDA standard is 100% silicone, no filler, just LFGB standard silicone to better.

3,How is it better?

   Later I send the FDA and LFGB silicone material analysis table and the material test report for your reference,you can see the LFGB standard is more strict with silicone.

4,So to sell in Europe we need to have LFGB standard, correct?

   Yes,if your client is in Europe, so they will demand the LFGB.

   You can do two kinds, one kind of the FDA standard, sales to the United States market, a LFGB standard, sold to European market.

5, Is there a price difference? Between the 2 kinds of silicone?

    The price for LFGB than FDA expensive 15%.
