Reported risk: Plastmaterialet i kabeln har en för hög koncentration av bis(2-etylhexyl)ftalat (DEHP) och dibutylftalat (DBP) (uppmätt värde: 3,7 % respektive 1,8 viktprocent). Lodningarna i produkten har en för hög koncentration av bly (uppmätt värde upp till 69 viktprocent). Produkten har en för hög koncentration av kortkedjiga klorparaffiner (SCCP) (uppmätt värde upp till 1,3 viktprocent). Dessa ftalater utgör en risk för människors hälsa och miljön. Bly utgör en risk för miljön. SCCP är svårnedbrytbara i miljön, är giftiga för vattenlevande organismer vid låga koncentrationer och bioackumuleras hos vilda djur och människor, vilket utgör en risk för människors hälsa och miljön.

Product Name (original English): Handheld vacuum
Risk Description (original English): The plastic material of the cable has an excessive concentration of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) (measured value: 3.7% and 1.8% by weight, respectively). The solders in the product have an excessive concentration of lead (measured value up to 69% by weight). The product has an excessive concentration of short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured value up to 1.3 % by weight). These phthalates pose a risk to human health and the environment. Lead poses a risk to the environment. 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.
