Baby's changing mat - Puslehynde

What is the danger

These products pose a chemical risk because the cotton material contains 86-91 mg/kg and plastic foam material contains 48-60 mg/kg of formaldehyde (maximum permitted level of formaldehyde in textile material products intended for children under 2 years is 30 mg/kg). The product does not comply with the relevant Finnish legislation. In addition the package, a plastic bag, poses an environmental pollution risk and indirect health risks because the quantity of cadmium (expressed as Cd metal) exceeds the limit 0.01% (i.e.100 mg/kg) by mass of the polymer (400 mg/kg of cadmium). The product does not comply with the REACH Regulation.
