What is the danger
The orange plastic strap material and the orange giraffe have an excessive concentration of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) (measured value up to 23.3% and 23.7% by weight, respectively). This phthalate may harm the health of children, possibly causing damage to the reproductive system. Moreover, the orange strap material has an excessive concentration of lead (Pb) (measured value up to 0.22 % by weight). Lead is harmful to human health, accumulates in the body, and may affect breast-fed or unborn children. Lead can cause developmental neurotoxicity if children are exposed.
