- Risk
- The product has an excessive concentration of short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured value up to 1.3% by weight).

Prolonged exposure to them through the skin may cause cancer.

Lead poses a risk to the environment, while these phthalates pose a risk to human health and the environment. The product does not comply with the Persistent Organic Pollutants (POP) Regulation nor with the requirements of the Directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS Directive).
