Dr Anna Watson at CHEM Trust said, “Unfortunately, there are likely to be some chemicals harmful to health present in the furnishings in our bedrooms. These chemicals get added to mattresses, carpets, headboards and electronic goods to increase stain and water repellence or to help prevent and slow down the spread of fires. But these chemicals can be released from these furnishings and mix with household dust and build up in the air in our homes. One very simple action we can all take is making sure we open our bedroom windows to ventilate the room.”
