Brand file
Every Anko product we have scored, with the maker’s own words about materials and what those words leave out. Average across the range: 32.5 out of 100.
We have scored 32 Anko products. They average 32.5 out of 100 on materials, and the spread between the best and worst is 70 points.
Of those 32: 11 name the surface that touches food at least to a material family; 5 name no food-contact material at all; 0 state a country of manufacture; 4 have a materials claim backed by anything other than the maker’s own word.
That spread is the thing worth noticing. The same company publishes enough about Anko 940ml Dual Function Drink Bottle (Kmart / Target) for it to score 70, and so little about Anko 7.5L Air Fryer (Kmart) that it scores 0. Disclosure here is a per-product decision, not a house style.
