To maintain these, one of the approaches IKEA has is keeping up with the health and environmental awareness that people value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Part of IKEA&rsquo;s mission to provide affordable furnishings is to help make those items safer for your home (especially your children) and that comply with their green and sustainability goals. This includes reducing the chemicals used in IKEA products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company states they <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/chemicals-used-ikea-furniture-chemicals-that-arent-used\/\">use what they need<\/a> since some chemicals are necessary for manufacturing but they are very restrictive (to prevent significant exposure levels and toxicity) and selective in what is used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IKEA also actively phases out harmful chemicals and strives to find better replacements, without waiting for regulations to force the change. This also increases the recyclability of their products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In terms of the chemicals mentioned above, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ikea.com\/us\/en\/files\/pdf\/2a\/0f\/2a0f5e67\/ikea_restricted_substance_list.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IKEA&rsquo;s restricted substance list<\/a> shows the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Formaldehyde is allowed in limited use (100 ppm) in textiles, and the emissions on the completed product are regulated. It is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ikea.com\/us\/en\/files\/pdf\/e1\/12\/e11228df\/ikea_faq_formaldehyde.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">banned in paints and lacquers<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Antimony compounds (safe exceptions are possible), TDCP (TDCPP), TCEP, and TBBPA (brominated compound) are banned flame retardants for IKEA.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Furniture Product Information Lacks the Warning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>IKEA is obliged to include a warning for these chemicals and make it easy to see, according to Prop 65.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cpsc.gov\/Business--Manufacturing\/Business-Education\/Business-Guidance\/FHSA-Requirements\" target=\"_blank\">Federal Hazardous Substances Act (FHSA)<\/a> from the US Consumer and Product Safety Commission requires that precautionary labeling is present on household products to inform consumers about storage, use, and medical information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A toxic product is required to have such a label. A toxic product is deemed as such by the FHSA if swallowing, inhaling, and absorption through the skin can cause illness or injury. A toxic substance is also one that can cause long-term problems like cancer and congenital defects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the product lacks a warning label, it is probably because it is safe enough to make it unnecessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where Would the Warning Be Displayed?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally, the warning is displayed on the back, the side, or the underside of any boxing or container.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Where-Would-the-Prop65-Warning-Be-Displayed_-illustration-of-a-man-holding-a-package-with-Prop65-warning-on-it.jpg\" alt=\"Where Would the Prop65 Warning Be Displayed_, illustration of a man holding a package with Prop65 warning on it\" class=\"wp-image-26570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Where-Would-the-Prop65-Warning-Be-Displayed_-illustration-of-a-man-holding-a-package-with-Prop65-warning-on-it.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Where-Would-the-Prop65-Warning-Be-Displayed_-illustration-of-a-man-holding-a-package-with-Prop65-warning-on-it-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Where-Would-the-Prop65-Warning-Be-Displayed_-illustration-of-a-man-holding-a-package-with-Prop65-warning-on-it-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Where-Would-the-Prop65-Warning-Be-Displayed_-illustration-of-a-man-holding-a-package-with-Prop65-warning-on-it-735x536.jpg 735w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Where-Would-the-Prop65-Warning-Be-Displayed_-illustration-of-a-man-holding-a-package-with-Prop65-warning-on-it-335x244.jpg 335w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Where-Would-the-Prop65-Warning-Be-Displayed_-illustration-of-a-man-holding-a-package-with-Prop65-warning-on-it-347x253.jpg 347w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Where-Would-the-Prop65-Warning-Be-Displayed_-illustration-of-a-man-holding-a-package-with-Prop65-warning-on-it-520x379.jpg 520w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Where-Would-the-Prop65-Warning-Be-Displayed_-illustration-of-a-man-holding-a-package-with-Prop65-warning-on-it-640x467.jpg 640w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Where-Would-the-Prop65-Warning-Be-Displayed_-illustration-of-a-man-holding-a-package-with-Prop65-warning-on-it-960x700.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw -

So, it&rsquo;s in the company&rsquo;s best interests to ensure you know if there is a warning label.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are shopping online, you can still look for the warning on the website by selecting &ldquo;product details&rdquo; and going to the &ldquo;materials &amp; care&rdquo; dropdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Appliances like the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ikea.com\/us\/en\/p\/rengjord-built-in-dishwasher-90504572\/\" target=\"_blank\">RENGJORD dishwasher<\/a>, the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ikea.com\/us\/en\/p\/stjaernstatus-french-door-refrigerator-black-stainless-steel-40522286\/\" target=\"_blank\">STJAERNSTATUS refrigerator<\/a>, &nbsp;and the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ikea.com\/us\/en\/p\/tillreda-microwave-oven-white-40493420\/\" target=\"_blank\">TILLREDA microwave<\/a> have a hazard sign followed by &ldquo;WARNING: Cancer and Reproductive Harm&rdquo; with a link to the Prop 65 site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Outside of California<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Items that will never be sold in California might not have the Prop 65 warning. However, since IKEA usually sells the same products everywhere, it&rsquo;s more than likely that they will merely use the Prop 65 warning on all products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is especially true for online shopping, which is accessed in one place by every state, including California where the warning is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If there is a difference in any other state that sells a specific product, there is probably still a warning label to be found since consumer acts also require these.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The warning will likely be in a similar format with the hazard symbol and a warning statement; it just might reference a different website and authority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If there is no label and you are still concerned, you can always look up the piece of furniture online and check for the warning there.
