Bisphenol A (BPA)

Bisphenol A, or BPA, is an industrial chemical associated with some plastics and resins. When a play mat page mentions BPA-free language, shoppers should check which material was tested, which record supports the claim, and whether the report applies to the current product.

What to verify

  • Material relevance: ask whether BPA is relevant to the material family.
  • Report scope: check whether the record covers the finished mat, material, or sample.
  • Current date: compare lab date and product naming.
  • Claim boundary: BPA-free is one material question, not a complete safety guarantee.

PopsyKosy context

PopsyKosy keeps BPA-related language tied to material records and reviews it alongside USP Class VI-tested EVA, CPSIA/CPC, ASTM F963, EN71, REACH, Prop 65, and OEKO-TEX Standard 100 Class I materials where applicable.
