Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization Warns of Asbestos in Toys

Posted on January 13th, 2009 No Comments

The Asbestos Disease Awareness Organization, or ADAO, recently reiterated warnings to the general public about asbestos in popular children's toys.

In 2007, the ADAO, a California-based non-profit organization, identified several widely-distributed toys that contained potentially hazardous levels of asbestos. Of most concern – the CSI: Crime Scene Investigation Fingerprint Examination Kit. Scientific analysis indicated that the fingerprint dusting powder in the kit contained tremolite asbestos, a particularly harmful form of the mineral fiber. Furthermore, because the asbestos was contained within a powdery substance, inhalation was much more likely. 

Other children's toys/products in which asbestos was found included the Art Skills' Clay Bucket, Ja-Ru Toy Clay, and certain talc-based baby powders.
