The Context of Proposition 65 Warning of the State of California

With the environmentalists call for a safe environment to protect the earth and its inhabitants, consumers are getting more aware on the materials or ingredients used on creating products. One such item that was given much attention is furniture. Others may not know it but the furniture materials like wood dust, PVC, brass or other compounds present on household items and furniture are harmful to us. These brought several associations to organize their own campaign to check on this matter.


Upholding their goal of protecting their citizens from consumer products' issues, the state of California has implemented the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act. Also known as the "Proposition 65", its initial objective is to safeguard all sources of drinking water from chemical contaminants. The extent of the law has expanded for the past years, though. Places like the parking areas, hospitals, schools, hardware stores, parks and any respectable business establishments have placed warning signage. Under the Proposition 65 Law, all products should have warning labels.


To protect consumers, the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) issued a list of carcinogen or reproductive toxicants consisting of more than 800 chemical elements. Some of the elements in the list include wood dust, PVC, brass and other common compounds that endanger lives. A certain chemical used as a flame retardant for furniture upholstery foams was included in the list recently. Other compounds included in the Proposition 65 list of harmful elements are present in common commodities like: beauty products, ceramic table ware, lead crystal glasses, electric cords, jewelries, lamps, vehicles and even furniture.


Stylish Design FurnitureΒ upholds the Proposition 65 law of California. Our customers are our responsibility and have the right to information; and it is our desire to protect them from any danger. There is always a possibility that wood dust and other elements included in the Proposition 65 list may be present on our furniture or packing materials. To forewarn our customers, we have included the required precise phrasing of the State of California in all our furniture items, which is: "This product contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm."


The forewarning is frightening. For the safety of our customers, we want to assure them by giving them the correct information based on dependable research findings.


Although studies revealed that wood dust endangers the health, a reliable research study affirmed that the amount of wood dust exposure determines the risk to one's health. People working in the furniture workplace are more at risk to wood dust during the sawing and sanding process. items go through a strict quality assurance check to ensure our customers' safety. All our products were found to have NO WOOD DUST PARTICLES as it leaves our factory and store and are shipped clean and safe.
