are there any flame retardants on this sleeper?

Hello, and thank you for your question about the Close and Secure Sleeper! This item does not have flame retardants.

Don't know, sorry! It doesn't seem as plasticky as a lot of kids sleep stuff though - feels very natural and kind of heavy. There are no flame warnings on the labels, so I'd say the material is okay for me.

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.

No, it does not contain a flame retardant. A mattress company that uses talalay latex does not recommend using a natural foam mattress topper because it's so flammable: "...you might as well put gasoline on the top of your mattress..." (My research shows that P. Thornton is correct in saying that polyurethane is extremely flammable, as is memory foam, but I believe the statement that natural Latex is not flammable is incorrect.) When used in the interior of a mattress and surrounded by wool or natural cotton, natural latex is much less likely to burn. However, if you smoke in bed or have lit candles on the nightstand, it would NOT be a good idea to use a talalay topper. On the other hand, if you don't smoke in bed and keep lit candles a safe distance from the bed, by all means use natural latex as a topper.

I have this same tent in the Carolini version and contacted HABA before buying. Their tents do NOT have flame retardants in them, but are intrinsically retardant by nature of the construction of the fabric (polyester)--meaning, they do not add flame retardant chemicals like most other children's play tent companies do. (This tent had absolutely no funky odor upon opening.) Higher priced than others, but worth the extra investment in my child's health and well-being. These tents are high-quality, sturdily constructed, safe, beautiful and will last a lifetime.

No chemicals or flame retardants according to the label. Just Alpaca wool. Very light weight. Possibly too large for an infant. Might get tangled up in a crib. I love mine. Just right for this prolonged cold or hot spring.

If it were free of chemicals, it would be outer space, not a mattress. In that case, I wouldn't recommend sleeping on it. I'm guessing you're asking in particular about the fire prevention chemicals that are sprayed onto most foam furniture now, outside of the state of California. I have no idea. Hope someone from the mattress company pipes up about the pros and cons of their manufacturing process.

There is no plastic. It's 100% cotton flannel. I think it's waterproof because it's so tightly woven. It says nothing on the label about fire retardant chemicals. It is made in China, however.

I can't say absolutely but I know I couldn't use the pillow myself even though my grandson loves it because I have severe chemical allergies and I can smell a faint smell of something, not sure exactly what, but it would be enough to cause an allergic reaction should I sleep on the pillow. Whether it is a fire retardant or not, I couldn't say for sure.

Check out http://www.davincibaby.com/willow-natural-coconut-palm-crib-mattress and hover your mouse over the 'Meets Federal Flammability Standard CFR-1633'. They explain that the mattress does not contain any flame retardant materials, but use a thin layer of cotton-like material (possibly with Dupont chemicals) that do not contact the user and they use Kevlar thread to make the mattress, which is flame resistant. I did notice a slight odor when I removed it from the plastic wrapper, but aired it for several months before baby arrived and the slight smell was long gone. Good luck with your purchase- we have just flipped this one to the toddler side and I am still very happy with the purchase.

I am not sure what you mean with flame retardant. It is not 100% cotton, the bottom of the bedding is silky.

There are no fire-retardants used on this mattress. Latex mattresses do not require this.

It does not indicate if the product is flame retardant, however, I feel confident that this could burn into flames. It is a well crafted item and it has good weight to it. Fairly easy to use with some assistance.

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.

I own this and it's great. Not sure about flame retardant; but I keep him from open flames....

I was just looking up this information on their website as I was considering purchasing this and they indicate that they do not use any PBDE flame retardants

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).
