Reusable Straw Materials, Compared

Four materials dominate the reusable straw shelf, and each one is genuinely better than the others at something. These pages say what that something is before saying anything else.

We make a metal straw, so read accordingly. What we can promise is that nothing here claims a material has no advantages — that kind of comparison is written to sell, and it is easy to spot.

• Metal vs bamboo
• Metal vs glass
• Metal vs silicone
