does this have flame retardant in the foam or the cover?

The manufactuer indicates on their label that all materials used in making the TriFold Mat are flame retardant according to CA laws.

It is removable, yes. The material is pretty tough and it's got foam in it. I just tore off the tag and looked, it says "All new material consisting of Polyurethane foam pad 50.5%, Polyester Fiber Batting: 49.5%". It does not mention flame retardant, only "Certification is made by the manufacturer that the materials in this article are described in accordance with law." Hope this helps.

According to the www.certipur.us web site, the foam is made without standard (PBDE) flame retardants. One other advantage is that the foam is low volatility, which means chemical vapors from the manufacturing process are lower than average.

This is a foam product and does not contain any type of plastic or flame retardants chemicals.

There are no flame retardant chemicals. The flammability requirements are met by using natural fibers, such as cotton, instead of more flammable petroleum-based fillers, such as polyurethane foam.

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.

I no longer have the packaging so I checked the tags on the curtain. They don't mention anything about flame retardants.

I am not sure if there is a fire retardant or not, but if you call the company, they will answer any questions you may have. I called them many times before I bought my mattress. I have had it over a year now and I am very happy with it. http://www.lucidmattress.com

This product is made by Colgate and this was the answer they gave me when I asked if they used ANY flame retardants on the foam, "First of all thank you for considering a Colgate mattress. There are two ways to meet the flammability standard. The first is to treat the mattress cover with chemicals. The second is to use a barrier fabric, which is what we choose to do. A great source of information as to what we use can be found here:http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CelluloseWe use a barrier fabric in all of our mattresses, traditional and Eco. My own kids slept on these mattresses do I really wouldn't want them on a chemical fire barrier."

I'm not sure if it contains any flame retardant materials in it. Although, I can say it is a fairly comfortable bed topper, I can answer that. I've had it for about a year now and it's served me well so far, I just turn it over every month.

According to external tags, the pillow is made of polyurethane foam. It is flammable according to tags.

contains 2 foams and 1 plastic insert. Insert was different than mine but foam fit over mine perfectly.

I was wondering the same thing, and it looks like the answer is most likely yes. One reviewer mentioned that the same product is sold in ebay, and that product description states that there is an inch foam at the center and that the mattress meets California flame retardant bulletin.

I believe it is memory foam. I've had this bed for a few years now and the foam has held up wonderfully. My golden still uses it. My only complaint is the zippered cover. Whenever I take it off to wash it, it is hard to get the foam back in it. Now, I use my own cover that I just lay on the foam so I can wash it often and I don't have to stuff the foam back in. I just lay it on top. But all in all...the foam has held up great and my dog still uses it as her bed.

Our model is from 2013. I'm not aware of any flame retardant chemicals used on the seat.

I am sure there are but wasn't a concern of mine since I don't allow my 3 year old to spark up a cigarette in bed. Also, it wasn't a concern of mine because I f there was a fire that close to the bed does it matter if this has a fire retardant or not? It is a soft foam and therefore made through a chemical process. If you are concerned about smell (either from the chemical application of fire retardant or the foam itself), there is a smell from this product for a couple days but dissipates quickly.
