Peer reviewed by two members of Breast Cancer UK independent Science Panel.
Flame retardants are chemicals used in consumer and industrial products to help prevent fires starting or to delay their spread. They were developed in response to the widespread use of synthetic materials which has increased the flammability of our built environment. Legacy flame retardants are known to be harmful to human health and the environment and the limited data on organic flame retardants in current use suggests they could be equally problematic.
