Welcome to Piaoi.com, the sole official US distributor of the award-winning Piao I tea pot company of Taiwan. Buy real FDA approved Piao I teapots, made in Taiwan, not counterfeits or look-alikes. The internet is replete with big name auction sites and companies that are either misleading people into thinking that they are buying real Piao-I products, or are selling fakes. These sites openly state that they don't have time to verify the authenticity of their listings. Customer reviews fail to identify fakes. The auction sites even make you send the package back and make you pay for return shipping after you have been defrauded. Customers who purchase from our website can rest assured that we stand behind our products, that they are made with food grade materials, not recycled CD's and syringes. We even sell the outer glass containers separately. You deal directly with Larry and Yang Su Chin, the head of Piao I USA.

The polycarbonate inner cup and lid of our pots have been additionally tested twice in Taiwan and once in Japan for BPA safety. The outer container is made of durable Taiwan glass. The latest Taiwan test, conducted on a used inner cup, and which could detect amounts as little as 10 parts per billion, show that no BPA leaching was detected even when subjected to water heated to a constant 203F temperature for 30 minutes.

The polycarbonate is imported from Dow Chemical and the Teijin Company of Japan. The Piao I Teapot company is a family run business, patented and manufactured by a tea farmer, so quality control is high.

Piao I does not ship directly from China.
