WHY IS THIS PRODUCT DANGEROUS?

The plastic material of the product has an excessive concentration of disobutyl phthalate (DIBP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured values: up to 7.5%,14% and 2.7% by weight, respectively). These 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 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.
