The US states of New York and Washington have introduced proposals that would restrict several classes of flame retardants
in consumer products.
The proposal prohibits or restricts the use of halogen element flame retardants
in children's products or upholstered furniture for the home.
The New York State proposal prohibits the use of halogenated and phosphorus-bromine flame retardants in upholstered furniture while requiring manufacturers or importers to demonstrate that their products meet pending "open flame flammability" standards
.
The bill from Washington amends the Children's Product Safety Act (CSPA) and related rules to restrict the use of all flame retardant substances
listed in Chemicals of Very High Concern to Children (CHCC) in children's products and upholstered furniture.
Tris(2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP) and tris(1,3-dichloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TDCPP) listed in the Act have an effective date of July 1
, 2016.
