Polyurethane (PU) is generally considered to be a non-toxic material. It is commonly used in various industries, including insoles, furniture, and automotive, due to its versatility, durability, and comfort properties.
However, it’s important to note that the toxicity of any material depends on the specific formulation and manufacturing process. Some additives or chemicals used in the production of PU can potentially be harmful. For example, certain types of PU foams may contain flame retardants or volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that can be toxic or emit harmful fumes.
To ensure the safety of PU products, manufacturers often adhere to strict regulations and standards regarding chemical usage and emissions. It is recommended to look for products that have undergone testing and certifications to ensure they meet safety standards, such as REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals) in the European Union or similar regulations in other regions.
The PU insoles we produce comply with the EU REACH standards, so there is no need to worry about them. If you are interested in PU insoles, you can continue to visit this page (https://www.aideastep.com/pu-insoles/) and tell us your needs.
