Reported risk: Plastmaterialet i produkten har en för hög halt av bis(2-etylhexyl)ftalat (DEHP) och kortkedjiga klorparaffiner (SCCP) (uppmätta värden upp till 9,9 % respektive 0,37 viktprocent). DEHP kan skada barns hälsa, eventuellt genom att orsaka skador på reproduktionssystemet. SCCP är beständiga 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. Långvarig exponering genom huden kan orsaka cancer. Produkten uppfyller inte kraven i REACH-förordningen eller POPs-förordningen.

Product Name (original English): Vattentät kartficka

Risk Description (original English): The plastic material of the product has an excessive concentration of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured value up to 9.9% and 0.37% by weight, respectively). DEHP may harm the health of children, possibly by causing damage to the reproductive system. 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.
