Massachusetts now has a law that bans chemicals used as flame retardants in many consumer products.
Under a new law, manufacturers and retailers in Massachusetts cannot import or sell products including bedding, furniture, children’s items, window treatments, and carpeting that contain any of 11 chemicals that are used as flame retardants.
Supporters of the new law including environmental activists, consumer advocates, scientists, health care workers, and professional firefighters argued the chemicals posed serious health hazards when burned and were really not all that effective at slowing down fires. About two dozen members of the coalition met on a Zoom call Tuesday night to celebrate success after almost a decade of lobbying to get the law passed.
