Product Name (original English): TAPPETINO PER AUTO

Risk Description (original English): The product contains mercury (measured value: 0.029 mg/kg). Mercury bio-accumulates, is one of the most hazardous toxicants to the environment and is, through it, a threat to human health. Additionally, the product has an excessive concentration of copper and several phthalates, in particular dibutyl phthalate (DBP) (measured values: 1.97% and 39.4 % by weight respectively). Copper can cause liver and kidney damage and might affect fertility. DBP may harm the health by causing possible damage to the reproductive system.
