Guest guest Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 Hi Lara I've seen this link http://www.archive2.official- documents.co.uk/document/deps/cs/shdg/ch06/index.html " Chipboard products can contain formaldehyde - a known toxin which can be released directly into the dwelling. " " chipboard kitchen units melamine worktops formaldehyde resins " are mentioned in Table 6.2 It suggests a beech worktop. I found quite a few links that came up for " untreated beech worktop " though some of the pictures looked like the wood was made from lots of small blocks so would contain a lot of resin I think (but not sure). We are going to do some painting in the kitchen this Easter. I was just reading ... " ECOS Feng Shui is ideal for kitchens and bathrooms and can be used on melamine surfaces " though not worktops of course. Best wishes, Sandy > > Help, got to get a new kitchen work top! what sort is best re toxins > any one know? > > Lara x > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
