Travelon’s Policy Related to CA Prop 65

Prop 65 stands for Proposition 65 and is a California law that requires consumers to be notified about the possible presence of listed chemicals in excess of specified levels in products sold in California. Chemicals included on the list are those which have been determined by a California state agency to cause cancer
and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Currently the number of chemicals listed under Prop 65 is more than 800, with many new chemicals being added every year.

There are two ways a company is compliant with Prop 65 regulations:

1. Test every component of every product for every production run against each of the 800 chemicals listed to ensure they are within the safe harbor limits. Additional, testing would be required each time new chemicals
were added to the list. Travelon believes this to be impractical and cost- prohibitive.
2. Place a Proposition 65, Safe Harbor Warning, on each of its products. The wording of the label, specified by California law, is: “CA Prop 65
Warning: This product contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.”

Travelon believes its products are safe when used as intended. However, in order to be compliant with California law, Travelon, along with many major manufacturers in industries ranging from electronics to sleepwear, has decided to place CA Prop 65 Warning labels on its products. In order to minimize product
costs and because we cannot always determine where a product will be sold, we have decided to mark all products with the warning label.

The current list of Prop 65 chemicals can be found the website listed below.
