Banned PVC toys

The French Ministers of Health and Consumer Affairs have banned the manufacture, sale, export and import of toys made of soft PVC by containing ophthalate chemical components. The prohibition refers to toys that children usually put in the mouth.

Ophthalates are necessary if you want PVC to be flexible and damage to the liver and reproductive system of animals has been detected."
