Are these mats treated with chemical fire retardants?

I was wondering the same thing, and it looks like the answer is most likely yes. One reviewer mentioned that the same product is sold in ebay, and that product description states that there is an inch foam at the center and that the mattress meets California flame retardant bulletin. See http://www.ebay.com/itm/Royal-Traditional-Japanese-Thai-Floor-Rolling-Futon-Mattresses-Beds-30-W-x-80-L-/290945623787?pt=Mattresses&hash=item43bdb5e6eb For more info on flame retardants and safety issues, go to http://www.greensciencepolicy.org/frequently-asked-questions

There is nothing on the tags to indicate that it is flame or fire retardant. It did however state that it met all of the laws regarding the product. This makes me think that perhaps it is.

This product is not flame retardant (also apparent by the product tags). This is one of the prime reasons i purchased this product: I did not want to expose my child to flame retardant chemicals. I hope this helps. -TJ

The manufactuer indicates on their label that all materials used in making the TriFold Mat are flame retardant according to CA laws.

They are unbleached paper, no wax or chlorine. I hope they are biodegradable, because I am putting used bags in my compost pine. :)

Hello, We do apologize, the only information we have from the manufacturer is that this contains CA117 Fire Retardant Foam. If you need anything else, please let us know. Thank you.

I'm not 100% sure but I think they have been treated with a flame retardant in order to meet California specs for safety.

Sorry, but I have no idea. I don't think any of these are, however, as they look to be woven plastic. I wouldn't use is near or over an open flame. Check with the manufacturer.

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.'"

They use Boric Acid as a flame retardant. It is in the product description.

I am sure there are but wasn't a concern of mine since I don't allow my 3 year old to spark up a cigarette in bed. Also, it wasn't a concern of mine because I f there was a fire that close to the bed does it matter if this has a fire retardant or not? It is a soft foam and therefore made through a chemical process. If you are concerned about smell (either from the chemical application of fire retardant or the foam itself), there is a smell from this product for a couple days but dissipates quickly.

Hi Janice- they changed the law so that flame retardants are no longer required to be added to changing pads. The outer cover does retard burning, and the inner cushion remains flame retardant free.

Hi Laurin, Our beds are free of PBDEs as well as boric acid. Our cotton-bamboo cover is quilted with a rayon blend that is inherently inflammable. This rayon is blended with sand and a small amount of polyester.

Hi Julia, yes these mats are 100% BPA free. They are made from a fiber glass weave coated in premium, food grade silicone that is FDA compliant. I hope this helps. Regards, Matt - StarPack Team Member

They are flame retardant so they are fire marshal acceptable! I even briefly used a few on my windows until I was able to get fire retardant spray for my curtains.

Don't know, but I doubt it. it is a very similar material to other fleece pajamas. I have never heard of children's pajamas being treated with flame retardants, but maybe I am out of the loop. Would contact the manufacturer if I were you. Good luck!

No, the cotton cover is certified Organic and has not been treated with any fire retardant, or harsh or toxic chemicals. - Yes It's Organic
