🔴 Serious hazard — Reported risk: Tuotteen muovimateriaali sisältää liiallisen pitoisuuden bis(2-etyyliheksyyli)ftalaattia (DEHP) (mitattu arvo: 14,1 painoprosenttia). Tämä ftalaatti voi vahingoittaa terveyttä aiheuttamalla mahdollisia vaurioita lisääntymiselimille. Lisäksi tuote sisältää liiallisen pitoisuuden lyhytketjuisia kloorattuja parafiineja (SCCP) (mitattu arvo: 58098 mg/kg). SCCP-yhdisteet ovat pysyviä ympäristössä, myrkyllisiä vesieliöille pieninä pitoisuuksina ja kertyvät eliöihin ja ihmisiin, mikä aiheuttaa riskin ihmisten terveydelle ja ympäristölle. Pitkäaikainen altistuminen niille ihon kautta voi aiheuttaa syöpää. Tuote ei täytä REACH-asetuksen eikä pysyvien orgaanisten yhdisteiden asetuksen vaatimuksia.

Product Name (original English): Sanrio Hello Kitty cosmetic bag

Risk Description (original English): The plastic material of the product has an excessive concentration of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) (measured value: 14.1% by weight). This phthalate may harm the health by causing possible damage to the reproductive system. Additionally, the product has an excessive concentration of short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured value: 58098 mg/kg). 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.
