The U.S. CPSC has warned manufacturers and consumers to pay closer attention to the flame retardant ban.

  • 2017-10-12

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has warned manufacturers and consumers to be more aware of the ban on organohalogen flame retardants. The CPSC is urging manufacturers to stop using organohalogen flame retardants (OFRs) in certain products and encourages consumers to actively request relevant information from manufacturers to ensure their right to know about OFRs. In 2017, the CPSC issued a guidance document that is expected to ban the addition of OFRs to the following product categories: – Children's products; – Home textiles; – Mattresses; and – Electronic device casings. The CPSC guidance does not prohibit the addition of these substances to other household products or require preventative labeling, but strongly recommends that consumers request manufacturers to provide proof of OFR-free status and test reports when purchasing products that will have prolonged contact with their skin. This guidance states that the industry mistakenly believes OFR must be added to the plastic casings of children's products, home upholstered furniture, mattresses, and electronic devices. From a scientific perspective, the health risks of adding OFR to these products, especially for pregnant women and children, outweigh the preventative risks.
