What chemicals were used on this to make it flame retardant?

In order to answer that one would have to ask what kind of fire/flame would this mattress be exposed to? Most foam mattresses melt under heat then go to another state depending on the degree of heat. Of all the flammable objects that are in and around your room one would have to ask what fire scenario are you thinking about? Let me know so that one can give you a better answer or check with the manufacturer!

It does not have flame retardant. (See the FAQ on Halo's website: http://www.halosleep.com/frequently-asked-questions/).

It says on the tag: "Notice: this article meets all flammability requirements of California bureau of home furnishings technical bulletin 117. Care should be excersized near open flame or with burning cigarettes". The material consists of 76% polyurethan foam pad 16% polypropylene fiber and 8% polyester fiber. It did not have any "chemical" smell when we got it, it's a very good pad.

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.

I haven't seen this issue raised, but being all natural latex, I don't think it would contain flame retardants. Latex is not flammable like polyurethane.

Just wanted to mention: PBDE is NOT the only chemical flame retardant. The fact that the email quoted below does not state that Oeuf pads are free of TDCPP or other known carcinogens, when combined with the fact that they contain urethane foam, means they probably do contain flame retardants.

I don't think the damage would be as bad as the fire might have been if any. Think it's just regular flame retardant . Peace and good luck

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

This product is not flame retardant (also apparent by the product tags). This is one of the prime reasons i purchased this product: I did not want to expose my child to flame retardant chemicals. I hope this helps. -TJ

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.

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.

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).

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.

1-methoxy-2-propanol acetate, Acetone, Cellulose Nitrate, Isopropyl Alchohol, Camphor. DANGER! Extremely Flammable.See the MSDS here: http://www.onboces.org/safety/msds/D/Devcon%20Duco%20Cement%20August%202002.pdf

Not sure the exact material, however is is a very sturdy resin or plastic. Very heavy duty and the contents are 100% safe from fire.

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 doubt it. The fabric seat cover is easily removed and washed (about 100 times for me so far). I don't think fire retardants would stand up to that.
