| The Definition of PhthaltesSafe™ |
| Phthalates, or phthalate esters, are esters of phthalic acid. They are mainly used as plasticizers, i.e., substances added to plastics to increase their flexibility, transparency, durability, and longevity. They are used primarily to soften polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Phthalates are a group of chemicals used as plasticizers to make plastics more flexible and durable. They are commonly found in various products, including plastic containers, toys, and personal care items. |

"Phthalates are used widely in polyvinyl chloride plastics, which are used to make products such as plastic packaging film and sheets, garden hoses, inflatable toys, blood-storage containers, medical tubing, and some children’s toys.
