Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is Bisphenol A?

A: Bisphenol A (BPA) is both an ingredient in polycarbonate plastic and an additive to polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic. You may recognize its helpful properties in items you regularly use like baby and water bottles, CDs and DVDs, optical lenses and the linings of soft-drink cans.

Recent health studies have linked BPA with a higher incidence of diabetes and heart and liver abnormalities. Babies who are fed from polycarbonate bottles are at the greatest risk, but children are also exposed to BPA in a number of other products. Thanks to a push by consumers, products liability attorneys and retailers, the federal government is weighing the health data on BPA. While many drinking containers have already been removed from store shelves, a ban by states would take several years to effect.

If you're concerned about BPA, contact a products liability lawyer or visit the consumer-rights organization Healthy Toys.
