You may want to contact the manufacturer for that type of question. Their information is here: http://www.prepacmfg.com/content/contact-us

I did not experience that. It came ready to assemble, neutral smell if not a clean wood smell. No problem.

This is not mentioned on the packaging itself. I dare say it could contain some synthetic material. It is best to enquire from WMF. Good luck.

Yes, the wood is all natural. Doesn't seem to have anything applied to it, giving you the option to stain or paint as you choose. No chemical odor whatsoever. We have chosen to leave it natural. It is holding up quite well, even with 5 and 3 year old boys sharing the room (we fit a Litttle Tykes car bed underneath for younger boy). This is an extremely sturdy bed and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a loft bed. I did a lot of research before making my purchase and I am very satisfied. Price is right too ;)

Yes, it does. I just received mine and I don't like the fact that they don't mention that in the product description. They also don't say how much formaldahyde their product contains.

Yes, it does definitely contain formaldehyde. I read somewhere on MakeupAlley reviews that one of the commenters had called the company to ask the percentage and was told it was ~ 2.5%. Whether or not that is an accurate amount is up for deliberation. The stuff does work well, but if you use it, do so outdoors if possible.

I was made in China, it looks good but the veneer is very very very thin (easily chips or can be scratched through to the MDF). There was no obvious formaldehyde smell.

The keratin treatment is the only bottle that contains formaldehyde. No % listed but it's #23 of #28 ingredients. I just use the shampoo and conditioner which are great and don't contain any. I have the treatment done professionally and my stylist uses a treatment that doesn't contain any.

This oil doesn't list any formaldehyde as an ingredient. Works great! Major ingredients : menthol, camphor and methyl salicylate. Other ingredients : radix dipsaci, angelicae pubescentis, curcumae, flemingiae Philippinensis, cortex eucommiae, llicis pubescentis, saposhnikoviae, clemaditis, flos carthami, myrrha and radix zanthoxyli.

Hi. I do not own this item. I purchased it, but I soon returned it after learning that furniture constructed with composite wood actually gives off formaldehyde gas.

the shampoo and conditioner are formaldehyde free, however, the actual Brazilian blow out treatment does contain formaldehyde.

Mark, I am not expert, but I feel this is not made from the composite wood. Finishing and weight of the item is makes me feel like made it from hardwood.

It definitely looks nice and has a nice finish to it. But it is definitely a type of composite or manufactured wood. It does seem to be of a little bit better quality composite than others I've seen it's not the cheap flaking particle board but it's definitely not solid oak either

I don't believe so. I don't see any indication on the box or otherwise. (When I took a brick out of the box- I didn't smell a chemical smell either.)

Yes it is composite. I prefer real hardwood but wouldn't want pay the price if it was. I am satisfied with the quality and ease of construction. "It is what it is."

No, per my husband who put this together. He was impressed with the quality of wood.
