Headphones

What is the danger

The ear cushion contains an excessive amount of di-(2-etylhexyl)phtalate (DEHP) and short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured values up to 14.2% and 0.27% by weight, respectively), and solders contain an excessive amount of lead (measured values up to 61.5%). Phthalates may harm the health of children, causing possible damage to their reproductive system. SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bioaccumulate in wildlife and humans. Lead is harmful to the environment.
