This is lead free but not safe due to the other heavy metals present?
Hi Katie, no, that’s not correct. The other metals found are typical of what finds in modern plastic. If you still use plastic in your home I would consider these fine and safe for use by children. I just list all metals found as a curiosity – so people can understand what is in the products they buy.
