Toxic Chemicals From Carpets
Posted: 10-25-07 11:52am

I've only recently learned that commercially made carpets emit various toxic chemicals.

My questions are:

1. Do all commercially made carpets emit toxic chemicals?
2. Can clothes and blankets also contain these chemicals? And if yes is there any way to test them?

Not sure. But 100 percent pure organic cotton or wool might be the way to go for blankets and towels and bedding. More expensive but definitely worth it.
