What is the danger
This toy poses a chemical risk because it contains an excessive amount of phthalate (di-2-ethylhexyphthalate DEHP) - 15.9 % by weight, which exceeds the limit of 0,1 % by weight. DEHP is classified as category 2 toxic for reproduction material. Phthalates have a negative effect on the development of male/female reproductive organs. Especially children are vulnerable as their body is developing and can be negatively affected by these toxic substances.
