What is the danger

The product poses a chemical risk because it contains dibutyl phthalate (DBP) in a greater quantity than 0,5% w/w by content di-n-octyl phthalate in quantity greater than 20% by weight. DBP is classified as toxic and may impair fertility or cause harm to an unborn child. Di-n-octyl phthalate is characterized as irritant to the skin and causes serious eye damage.
