Vinyl Plastic Baby Products Found To Contain Large Amounts of Lead

By Greg Webb

ADVERTISEMENTS

A handful of well-known baby products made out of vinyl plastic, such as baby bibs and lunchboxes, have recently been found to contain high levels of lead. Some other baby products were also found to contain high amounts of lead: a Medela-brand cooler used to store breast milk, a carrying case sold with the First Years breast pump made by RC2, a Playtex baby bottle cooler, and a vinyl pacifier carrying case manufactured by Skip Hop. The Center for Environmental Health, the organization that conducted the investigation, found the products to have from 1,100 parts per million of lead to 5,500 parts per million of lead. Medela, RC2 and Skip Hop are conducting their own investigations about the organization's findings. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/11/business/11toy.html?_r=2&ref=business&oref=slogin&oref=slogin
