Verification in Progress
Thinksport has no products listed right now. The evidence on file doesn't reach the 70% American Score, often because a brand makes some lines in the US and imports others. Each product is scored on its own, so a US-made line can still be listed later.

Mineral sunscreens use non-nano zinc oxide with no harmful chemicals (BPA, parabens, oxybenzone, avobenzone). First sunscreen to pass Whole Foods Premium Care Requirements. Rated #1 by EWG Skin Deep since 2010. All products manufactured in the USA. Explicit Made in USA claims on packaging. claim-partial (moderate): Brand pages for both listed sunscreens state 'Made in the USA' (Kids Safe SPF 50+ page too).

American-Made Finds
One maker's story, the brands newly listed here, and a few US-made picks, every Thursday.
No spam. This is the weekly newsletter, which covers newly listed brands.
Thinksport sells mineral zinc oxide sunscreens that its product pages say are made in the USA. Its insulated sports bottles are made in China.
A founder's BPA discovery
Thinksport belongs to the Think family of brands, now sold through thinksun.com. Its Our Story page says founder Kevin Brodwick, who had worked in a lab funded by the National Institutes of Health, started the company after finding BPA in popular baby products. Non-toxic baby goods came first and sun care followed.
The brand's How We Build page says its lab research found harmful chemicals leaching from products made in the US, Canada, Switzerland and China alike, and that every country had manufacturers willing to follow its chemical policy.
Sunscreens made in the USA
We list Thinksport Safe Sunscreen SPF 50+ and Kids Safe Sunscreen SPF 50+. Both product pages say "Made in the USA," and so does the Kids Sunscreen Stick. The active ingredient is non-nano zinc oxide, and the brand says its formulas leave out oxybenzone, avobenzone, parabens and BPA.
Neither page names the city or state where the sunscreen is made.
Bottles come from China
The insulated sports bottle pages answer the origin question in their own FAQ: "Our sports bottles are made in China." That includes the Artist Series bottles. If US origin matters to you, buy the sunscreen and skip the bottles.
