Has this pillow been treated with any fire retardant chemicals?

Not that we can perceive. No data in the product information, and wife is very sensitive to chemicals and smells of chemical treatments, etc. We haven't noticed any.

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

The reason I bought this mattress was the description at the time said it was treated only with borax inside, which I assumed was more a bug deterant. There was a paper that also came with it saying it had not been treated with any typical retardant chemicals. The mattress is cotton and wool. There is no smell other than a mild smell of cotton - and I am very sensitive to odors.

No, this tent does not have any added chemicals used in retardants. It is flame resistant.

The pillow is natural and organic. As a company, I believe they try to avoid harmful chemicals. You may call their customer service number 714-541-3510 to find out for sure.

Not according to their website or product data. I researched this product and found it seemed safe. They get around having to add flame retardants by not using the crazy flammable material (foam) that requires it. Instead they use naturally more flame resistant materials (eg. wool, cotton, natural rubber depending on which model you get).

I cannot technically answer that, but I will tell you my five-year-old grandson took a barbeque lighter and tried to set it on fire in two spots. Thankfully, it only smoldered and made two holes (not all the way through) in the fabric, so I would guess it fortunately has some flame retardant.

I'm not sure if it's sprayed with fire retardant. Some reviewers complained about the minty smell stating it was too strong, but neither my wife nor I felt the smell was too strong, and the minty smell was gone in a few days. In fact I wish it would have lasted longer. We've almost had this mattress topper for 11 months now and we still love it and it's still very comfortable.

The pillow is filled with shredded memory foam but the cover is made of bamboo fibers that are antibacterial & won't let any micro organisms grow. It's hypo allergenic

I would be highly surprised and disappointed if it was treated, as I purchased the topper under the impression that it wasn't. Also, the tag doesn't specify that it is flame-retardant or compliant with the law in that regard, and in fact advises against dry cleaning, and I directly quote, "because of the harsh and toxic chemicals used during the process". That said, I LOVE this topper. I can't recommend it highly enough. It's construction and quality is superb, and has made all the difference in the world comfort- and temperature-wise on our mattress. Before purchasing this topper, my fianc and I were overheating and miserable on our supposedly nontoxic foam mattress. I got the topper to hold us over until we can afford a latex mattress instead, but will definitely continue to use this organic topper even when we do. Hope this helps!

Yes, it is. Be aware however, a label inside says that washing or dry cleaning will remove the flame retardant agent.

The material is comprised of vinyl and plastic components, thus I don't believe it could be fire retardant, but I suggest you to go through a further research to confirm it.

Wool is a natural fire retardant. So no need for any fire retardant chemicals

I do not really know. However, I have COPD (lung disease) and am very sensitive to odors and chemicals and I have not had any problems with my buckwheat pillow.

It does not state that it is fire retardant. In my experience it would state that if it was and would far more costly.

It appears that they are not. Here is a link to a blog where someone wrote and asked them: ladyplusbaby.com/?tag=halo-response-about-fire-retardant ...it's on the ladyplusbaby website and is a post tagged "halo-response-about-fire-retardant"...in case the weblink is blocked. On that page is posted these emails from Halo: Randall, Polyester is a natural flame retardant fabric; therefore all our fleece and comfort mesh items pass the standards with out flame retardant chemicals. Our cotton sleepsacks are made without the chemicals but can only pass the standards in the smaller sizes. This is the reason they are only made in these sizes. The flame resistance standards for children's sleepwear gets stricter as the sizes get larger. This is due to the mobility of the child increasing with size. If you have any other questions, please let us know. Christy Halo Innovations Customer Service ---------------------------------------------- Hello Randall, We do not use any flame resistance chemicals on any of our items. They pass the minimum standards for flame resistance without the use of chemicals. The standards are different based upon the size and mobility of the child therefore, the standards for larger or older children are more strict than for infants. This is why some of our products are only available in certain sizes. There are different CPSC levels of FR standards. The SleepSack wearable blanket falls into category 1610 which is for bedding categories. IF we were in a pajama category which is 1615 then the cotton SleepSacks would not pass without treatment. If you would like to learn more about this please visit the CPSC web site. http://www.cpsc.gov/ Regards, Karen Customer Service Halo Innovations Also on the Halosleep FAQ page, they say they are not chemically treated also. Hope that helps.
