Hazard: The plastic material of the product has an excessive concentration of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) (measured values: 24.4% and 0.2% by weight, respectively). These phthalates may harm the health by causing possible damage to the reproductive system. Moreover, the product has an excessive concentration of short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured value: 1.485% by weight). SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bio-accumulate in wildlife and humans, posing a risk to human health and the environment. Prolonged exposure to them through the skin may cause cancer.
