The product, in the report: BPA plastic containers
BAN THE USE OF BISPHENOL A (BPA) IN ALL CONSUMER PRODUCTS! Six months ago I purchased a new kitchen suite. I lined my fruit, vegetable and freezer bin with an absorbent liner. In six months my freezer omitted an odd, musty, chemical smell that permeated and ruined my refrigerator and the air in my home! I had some plastic containers in my freezer. Little did I know that heating or freezing changes the chemical compound of plastic and what was released was the BPA used in it’s design. I had to have the air ducts in my home cleaned, sanitized, and a uv light installed. Bought two medical grade room air purifiers, changed the kitchen sink drain because I did not know where the odor was coming from. I am now highly allergic to PVC piping and realize BPA is also in the lining of aluminum cans. The smell makes me sick on contact as I was almost overcome by the odor in my home. It felt like poison and just the odor increased my temperature. This toxic chemical should not be used in any product that touches a person’s food, drink or immediate living space. It is very dangerous. Had I not created the perfect storm and detected what was happening, I too would be ignorant to it’s harmful qualities. I also had to purchase a new refrigerator after only six months.
Injury information: increase of mold/toxic odor in my home.
