Does the pillow covering or memory foam filling contain any flame retardants, such as polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) or other flame retardant compounds?

Hi RK, our pillows do not have PBDE's . We manufacture our pillows in California, not China and do not have any PBDE's

Just wanted to mention: PBDE is NOT the only chemical flame retardant. The fact that the email quoted below does not state that Oeuf pads are free of TDCPP or other known carcinogens, when combined with the fact that they contain urethane foam, means they probably do contain flame retardants.

According to the www.certipur.us web site, the foam is made without standard (PBDE) flame retardants. One other advantage is that the foam is low volatility, which means chemical vapors from the manufacturing process are lower than average.

The memory form does not have a chemical odor. In fact, I have tried multiple products for my dogs, I have 9, and this product is the best. It's truly waterproof, with no odors and pillow retain shape after use and covers are durable after many washes.

No, just the memory foam top. Also the smell is a little strong, we let it air out for one night and it took care of the smell. So far no complains from the kids.

Yes. memory foam. Provides alot of comfort, even for a 250 pound plus man . The covers can be unzipped and removed for washing.

I did not notice a chemical smell. However, I did allow my pillow to air out for a few days before use.

I don't remember. I stopped using duro-med because foam collapsed very easily and they were not comfortable. I use digi-cushions instead, and they are well made, last longer, well-priced and can be cut to any size.

I am unaware of any chemicals used on the husks. The product is advertised as 100% organic, which I would take to be free of chemicals. I have taken the husks out of the pillow in order to wash the cover and noticed no odd odors or colors.

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;=item43bdb5e6ebFor more info on flame retardants and safety issues, go to http://www.greensciencepolicy.org/frequently-asked-questions

I don't know. I don't see that info listed on the tag. It just says "This mattress meets the requirements of 16 CFR Part 1633 (federal flammability (open flame) standard for mattress sets) when used without a foundation." I don't have the packaging anymore... not sure if that even said anything about chemicals.

Being that item for sleep and that there are regulations in place requiring flame retardants in sleepwear and other items I'm going to assume there very well may be but your best bet is to contact fisher price

There is a tag attached which states "Only the resilient filling materials contained in this article meet CalIfornia Bureau of Home Furnishings flammability requirements. Care should be exercised near open flame or with burning cigarettes".

I do not believe that it is flame retardant. It does not state it. Hope this helps.

I doubt it, since flame retardants are usually reserved for mattresses, pads, etc. but contact the manufacturer to know for sure. It's hard to say just from using it (though it doesn't smell, if that helps).

I have no idea what makes it fire retardant. The mattress did not have an odor that I could make out when it arrived. I have loved the mattress so far and it has been 3 months.

Yes, all foam products are flammable. This does meet California TB-117 regulations for flammability; however, the criteria by which it passes is because of the foams density and not because of any flame retardant chemicals which is good news.
