The Truth About Pyrex
PYREX® is and always has been safe for use in accordance with its Safety & Usage Instructions.
PYREX® glass bakeware has an excellent safety record, established over decades. The Consumer Product Safety Commission, the federal agency charged with protecting consumers, maintains a database of injury reports to identify potentially hazardous products, and these records do not indicate any safety issue with glass bakeware. There has never been a recall of PYREX glass bakeware.
PYREX® glass bakeware is used in an estimated 80 percent of U.S. homes. Since 1998 World Kitchen has manufactured nearly 370 million PYREX® glass products for sale in the marketplace. A very small number of consumers have reported to World Kitchen that their PYREX® glass bakeware unexpectedly broke. Breakage can occur when any brand of glass bakeware is subjected to severe temperature changes or other misuse that our Safety & Usage Instructions specifically warn against.
We value our consumers and want them to use PYREX® glass bakeware properly, as millions of consumers have done for generations. That is why we sell all PYREX® glass bakeware with Safety & Usage Instructions, which are also available on our website (www.pyrexware.com).
If consumers want a replacement copy of the Safety & Usage Instructions, we will email, fax or mail them a copy.
