is this treated with flame retardants?

I had the same question and e-mailed customer service. This is their encouraging answer! Rarely can you get a reasonably priced item without flame retardants, BPA, PVC and phthalates! The board is still MDF, but maybe it can be sealed to reduce off-gassing or left out of your home for a few days. MDF is always a concern for VOC and formaldehyde emiting. Thank you for your e-mail and interest in Inglesina. 1.) The Fast chair is not treated with any flame retardants. 2.) The Fast Dinning Tray does not contain PVC, BPA, phthalates or lead. 3.) The seat support underneath is made of Medium Density Fiber Board. The other material of the Fast is the seat fabric made of polyester, foam that is polyesther and the bag that is made by nylon.

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.

It appears to be treated. We use cleaning products on it and have never had a problem.

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 think the product description says that it is fire retardant. I have dropped a couple of hot coal on it and the mat did not burn. I bought the product to protect my deck and so far it has worked perfectly.

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.

The only mention of flame retardant on the box says "Notice: this article meets the flammability requirements of California Bureau of Home Furnishings Technical Bulletin 117. Care should be exercised near open flame or with burning cigarettes."

Fire retardants are so commonly used in furnishings that I'd suggest asking the manufacturer to be sure. If chemicals are present, with more and more people concerned about chemical exposure, they may not note it on the packaging lest it reduce sales. I subsequently found this answer in this thread: "I emailed Luna, who responded with this quote 'Our protectors are not treated with anything at all.'"

I would be highly surprised and disappointed if it was treated, as I purchased the topper under the impression that it wasn't. Also, the tag doesn't specify that it is flame-retardant or compliant with the law in that regard, and in fact advises against dry cleaning, and I directly quote, "because of the harsh and toxic chemicals used during the process". That said, I LOVE this topper. I can't recommend it highly enough. It's construction and quality is superb, and has made all the difference in the world comfort- and temperature-wise on our mattress. Before purchasing this topper, my fianc and I were overheating and miserable on our supposedly nontoxic foam mattress. I got the topper to hold us over until we can afford a latex mattress instead, but will definitely continue to use this organic topper even when we do. Hope this helps!

This product has flame retardants. What kind are they and have the toys been treated with those too?

According to the label, it's filled with 100% Urethane foam. The label doesn't say what standards it adheres to, but there is a flammability statement, so that probably means no flame retardants. The cover is 100% cotton, again, no idea if it's treated cotton or not, but the instructions suggest putting the entire wedge under a sheet. I found that difficult to do personally, as it kept on coming uncovered. I don't have a pillowcase that's big enough for the wedge, but if I was still using it regularly I would probably make one.

I am not sure if there is a fire retardant or not, but if you call the company, they will answer any questions you may have. I called them many times before I bought my mattress. I have had it over a year now and I am very happy with it. http://www.lucidmattress.com

When i search from web I found out that Tiny Love does not use fire retardants on their cloth, But best way to verify that is mail/call directly to the manufacturer.

I don't think it intends to be fire-retardant, but I didn't look real hard to see if it was. Being as its mostly metal though, it could have some resistance to fire. Still, I'd say no to your question.

No, Naturepedic items do not contain chemical flame retardants. This item is non-toxic.

Our model is from 2013. I'm not aware of any flame retardant chemicals used on the seat.

It is removable, yes. The material is pretty tough and it's got foam in it. I just tore off the tag and looked, it says "All new material consisting of Polyurethane foam pad 50.5%, Polyester Fiber Batting: 49.5%". It does not mention flame retardant, only "Certification is made by the manufacturer that the materials in this article are described in accordance with law." Hope this helps.
