Safety

Friemel gives great importance to the safety of all its products. All products are made and checked with the necessary care and love. We follow the European safety standards EN-12586 and EN-71 that apply to baby and children's products.

 

We advise you not to leave your child alone with our products, but always to use them under the supervision of a parent or caregiver. The products may consist of small elements that can cause suffocation. Of course, the products are designed with great care to prevent this from happening, but it cannot be excluded as a possibility depending on usage of the Buyer. It is important that you always check the products before and after use for loose parts, wear or cracks.

 

Which materials are used?

All materials used in our products are not harmful to your child. That means free of lead, phthalates, and other harmful chemicals.

  • The silicone beads are BPA-free and 100% food grade silicone, with CE and FDA approval.
  • The wooden rings are made of natural and untreated wood.
  • The fabrics consist of different compositions, but are always suitable for babies and children.

 

Maintenance of the different materials

  • The silicone beads can be washed under the tap with cold or lukewarm water. Let the product air dry afterwards. It is not recommended to boil the silicone products, but the product can be put in the freezer for a while.
  • Do not keep a pacifier clip under the tap for too long, the clip is not water resistant.
  • Wooden rings or bite figures can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Keeping them under water for too long is not recommended, because this can make the wood soft.
  • For fabric products, it is recommended to wash at 30° and allow to dry naturally.
