True Source Products Launches TITAN Storage Containers Made With Eastman Tritan™
Copolyester
Company chooses durable, BPA-free material to upgrade food container line

Kingsport, Tenn., USA — August 12 — New food containers by True Source Products (TSP), made
with Eastman Tritan™ copolyester, meet consumer demands for containers that are durable and free
of bisphenol A (BPA). TSP is an American company specializing in food storage. The company’s
newest container line features Tritan, a new-generation copolyester that is dishwasher durable, tough
and has crystal-clear clarity. TSP’s new TITAN line made with Tritan includes multiple shapes and
sizes, including rectangle, square and round containers, as well as a sixteen piece assorted box set.

Before TSP’s introduction to the Eastman Tritan™ copolyester material, its containers were made of
glass and prone to breakage. In the search for a material that could provide a safe, durable alternative
for customers, TSP decided Tritan was ideal for the application.

“Our customers spoke and we listened, returning with a better product,” said Steve Lim, vice
president, TSP. “When looking to update our line of food storage containers, we sought a material that
was made in the U.S., light and tough. Eastman Tritan™ copolyester was our answer.”

Added functionality
Beyond being BPA-free, Eastman Tritan™ copolyester allowed TSP containers to be freezer, heat and
stain resistant and free of plastic odor and taste, all while preserving freshness with an airtight lid.
TSP was able to differentiate itself from the competition by making food containers that are both
functional and practical.

“Companies like True Source Products are listening to their customers and taking the initiative,
adjusting with changing demands,” said Marty Boykin, Ph.D., global business manager, Eastman
Chemical Company. “Through our collaboration, we were able to support True Source Products’
forward-thinking with a material that took its existing design and turned it into a BPA-free, durable
option to meet customer demands.”
