PVC or NO PVC in Europe

Can I have your comment about the use of PVC …
what is allowed and not allowed?
Is it restricted only for some product category?
Thanks a lot.

Hi François
I work as a medical device designer, and as far as I know the use of PVC only effects medical products, where the FDA has issued certain warnings about its (or more some of its ingredients!) safety! However they have not banned it! Which means it can’t be too bad! (The FDA is very strict on that sort of thing!) I will see if I can find out anything else

Si cest encore autorise, a lire le rapport de lUE, qui date un peu, cela fait tres peur. Il y a ennnnnormement de substances nocives, cancerigenes, etc…Et quand je vois ca en vente, …pour les enfants…ca fait peur.

If they still permit the sale in Europe, i`m scared, especially when I read the EU repport. Lots of cancerigene substances, and other desgusting things…
