Proposition 65 is a California law that requires warnings on products if they contain trace amounts of certain substances listed by the State of California. These warning thresholds are often much lower than limits set by federal or international health agencies, and the law applies only in California.
A Proposition 65 warning does not mean a product is unsafe. It is intended to provide information so California consumers can make informed purchasing decisions.
You may see Proposition 65 warnings on a wide range of everyday products in California, including building materials, hardware, furniture, packaged foods, and household items.
⚠ WARNING: This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects.

Does this apply outside California?
No. Proposition 65 applies only to products sold in California. Customers outside California may still see this notice for transparency and consistency across our website.
