The amount of Chromium (VI) in the leather is too high (measured value up to 7.5 mg/kg). Chromium (VI) is sensitising and may trigger allergic reactions. The product does not comply with the REACH Regulation.
The gloves contain azo dyes releasing an excessive amount of the aromatic amines 4-aminobiphenyl (measured value 84 mg/kg) and benzidine (measured value 714 mg/kg). When the product is in direct and prolonged contact with the skin, the aromatic amine may be absorbed by the skin. Aromatic amines can cause cancer, cell mutations and affect reproduction. The product does not comply with the REACH regulation.
The gloves contain azo-dyes which release the aromatic amines benzidine (measured value 185 mg/kg) and 3,3’-Dimethoxybenzidine (measured value 104 mg/kg). When the product is in direct and prolonged contact with the skin, these aromatic amines may be absorbed by the skin. Aromatic amines can cause cancer, cell mutations and affect reproduction. The product does not comply with the REACH Regulation.
The amount of chromium (VI) found in the leather is too high (measured value 22.1 mg/kg). Chromium (VI) is sensitising and might trigger allergic reactions. Moreover, it contains azo-dyes releasing the aromatic amine benzidine (measured concentration 39.4 mg/kg). When the product is in direct and prolonged contact with the skin, this aromatic amine may be absorbed by the skin. Aromatic amines can cause cancer, cell mutations and affect reproduction.
