What chemicals were used on this to make it flame retardant?

In order to answer that one would have to ask what kind of fire/flame would this mattress be exposed to? Most foam mattresses melt under heat then go to another state depending on the degree of heat. Of all the flammable objects that are in and around your room one would have to ask what fire scenario are you thinking about? Let me know so that one can give you a better answer or check with the manufacturer!

I don't know and product details don't mention anything about being flame retardant. I would assume most furniture and accessories in a nursery are not flame retardant, only their pajamas. I bought this because it fits the IKEA changing table. Summer Infant ones mention being chemically free, but not sure if that is related to flame retardants.

According to the product description it is Flame retardant, meets CPSIA, CPAI-84, ASTM F963-11 and Canadian safety standards. Thank you, Hatch Early Learning

No, it does not contain a flame retardant. A mattress company that uses talalay latex does not recommend using a natural foam mattress topper because it's so flammable: "...you might as well put gasoline on the top of your mattress..." (My research shows that P. Thornton is correct in saying that polyurethane is extremely flammable, as is memory foam, but I believe the statement that natural Latex is not flammable is incorrect.) When used in the interior of a mattress and surrounded by wool or natural cotton, natural latex is much less likely to burn. However, if you smoke in bed or have lit candles on the nightstand, it would NOT be a good idea to use a talalay topper. On the other hand, if you don't smoke in bed and keep lit candles a safe distance from the bed, by all means use natural latex as a topper.

The resin used to make this furniture is polyethylene, a flexible plastic. I don't know if this is fire retardant or not, or how safe it is to get it close to flames. I don't recall seeing anything about it when I ordered the chair and don't see anything on the Amazon page about it. It is definitely worth looking into because I think these chairs would be great to use for that purpose. I love mine.

I have this same tent in the Carolini version and contacted HABA before buying. Their tents do NOT have flame retardants in them, but are intrinsically retardant by nature of the construction of the fabric (polyester)--meaning, they do not add flame retardant chemicals like most other children's play tent companies do. (This tent had absolutely no funky odor upon opening.) Higher priced than others, but worth the extra investment in my child's health and well-being. These tents are high-quality, sturdily constructed, safe, beautiful and will last a lifetime.

It's made with petroleum distilates. Apply in ventilated area, avoid breathing it.

It is made of cloth. I do not see a flame retardant tag on it. I use it around my glass coffee table for when my grandson is over. It velcros on very easily. I am happy with the product.

This product is not flame retardant (also apparent by the product tags). This is one of the prime reasons i purchased this product: I did not want to expose my child to flame retardant chemicals. I hope this helps. -TJ

No. This tent does not have flame retardants. I think it's one of the only ones I've seen that does not. My son has this and it's great.

Hi. The foam is pretty firm and maintains its shape. I do not know about it being flame retardant? It comes with a removable pillowcase.

I did not see any info where it contained flame retardants. It is 100% polyester... Used to refill doggie beds where the original material had mashed flat. Still supportive and being enjoyed by my dogs after a year+. I have an additional box that I will use to give new life to flattened decorative pillows.

Yes. This futon uses the natural chemical boric acid as a flame retardant. As chemicals go, it's pretty benign, certainly much better than the PBDEs found in many mattresses and sofas, but is still a chemical and thus considered less "clean" than the use of silica or wool that you will find in organic mattresses.

The material is comprised of vinyl and plastic components, thus I don't believe it could be fire retardant, but I suggest you to go through a further research to confirm it.

No, this tent does not have any added chemicals used in retardants. It is flame resistant.

I'm not 100% sure but I think they have been treated with a flame retardant in order to meet California specs for safety.

I don't recall seeing any mention of flame retardants being applied to the foam.
