Pollutants in artificial Christmas trees – what you should look out for

Artificial Christmas trees are a great alternative to real trees – they don't shed needles, are reusable, and are easy on the wallet in the long run. However, there are a few things to consider when purchasing an artificial tree, especially regarding harmful substances and plasticizers. Unfortunately, many cheap models aren't exactly what you want in your living room for a festive and healthy Christmas.

Plasticizers – Invisible Dangers

Maybe you've heard of plasticizers before. These substances are used in many plastics to make them more pliable and flexible. Doesn't sound so bad at first, does it? But many plasticizers, especially the so-called phthalates, are suspected of being harmful to health. They can be absorbed through the air we breathe and, in the worst case, can have hormonal effects. Children and pets, who play much closer to trees, are particularly at risk.

Cheap plastic Christmas trees can often be contaminated with such plasticizers. This is sometimes immediately noticeable by the unpleasant odor they emit. Have you ever gotten a headache or a scratchy feeling in your throat when walking past one of these trees? This could be because the tree is releasing chemicals into the air – not exactly what you want for a cozy Christmas.
