According to the PTPA site, (I sent them an email asking what their green seal meant) their response was....."according to our records, it was based on it being an organic made product using organic only materials." I hope that helps. I did not see anything on the stars and clouds website on specifics so that is why I emailed the PTPA. You could email Clouds and Stars and see what they say. The PTPA should mean something though :)

yes they are plastic, but not sure about BPA free, I'd contact manufacturer for reassurance on that. It's a REALLY nice kit!

It is Eco-Friendly PEVA. PVC & Chlorine Free.(as stated on the packaging) It 'did not' have that usual, strong plastic smell that is common with plastic products.

Before I ordered them, I read on another website that they were BPA, lead and something else free. The something else was a long name I can't remember.

I would trust Amazon. The balls are a great value and most items for children are , now, Phthalate Free

They say they are, but don't specify what the plastic is. I wash them in cold water without detergent anyway.

I honestly do not remember if the packaging stated bpa/phthalate free but before purchasing I did more research and came to find all of their products are.

I do not believe these products are considered organic, it depends on your state agriculture guidelines. They are pesticide free!

I don't believe they are. There is no documentation of that. I would email the company to find out for sure, but that is something that companies usually brage about on a box if it is BPA free

Interesting that MamaNature was told they are made of PVC plastic. I emailed Infantino and was told that all the balls are PVC-free.

No. They are 100% organic. As I have many allergies, I have never had a problem with this pillow or one I bought several years ago. They are great.

Yes on both accounts. This product is made from HDPE, which is BPA and PVC free. In fact, PVC is a different kind of plastic altogether. Here's some basic info: http://www.goodhousekeeping.com/home/green-living/recycling-symbols-plastics-460321

On the packaging it says "PVC Free, Lead Free, Phthalate Free," but this thing honestly reeks out of the packaging and after washing. It will probably take many washes for the smell to dissipate. It's either from the plastic it is packaged in or from the item itself.

They are BPA-free, but BPA-free does not mean EA-free (Ectopic Adrenocorticotropic Hormone Secretion). Stressed plastics in particular (e.g. those used in the microwave, exposed to light) release hormone-affecting compounds more so, and some BPA-free plastics release more than those with BPA. Only way to get around it for now is to use glass. That is until companies start testing their products as EA free y independent labs.

Yes they are. What I've learned is that only "clear" plastic bottles may contain BPA but doesn't hurt to ask or research each product someone is interested in purchasing.
