BHD has had a few customers questioning if there is BPA contained in the thermal receipts and labels we sell. What is BPA? Bisphenol A, commonly abbreviated as BPA, is an organic compound used to make polycarbonate plastic and epoxy resins, along with other applications.
Known to be estrogenic since the mid 1930s, concerns about the use of bisphenol A in consumer products were regularly reported in the news media in 2008 after several governments issued reports questioning its safety, prompting some retailers to remove products containing it from their shelves.
A 2010 report from the United States Food and Drug Administration raised further concerns regarding exposure of fetuses, infants and young children.
The consumable products sold by Big Hairy Dog contain NO BPA. If you have any questions regarding this, please call Buddy at 800-377-7776.
