The Tip is 'Teach Grandchildren' One day, while I was on the Made In America Secrets site my granddaughter noticed and asked me what I was doing. I told her about the Big Secret and as I explained, she began to ask me more questions. After several minutes she left my office to play with her little sister. Months had gone by and until recently, I had forgotten about that moment. She was visiting again and I was talking to her about buying a custom printed T-Shirt. She immediately told me about a website that I could use to buy one. Wow I thought, she is only eight years old and already teaching me. The most amazing thing then happened, she said "Pops they sell Made In America T-Shirts". Thanks to her I purchased six custom Made In USA T-Shirts. Her name is Britton, she understands the Big Secret and I love it when she tells me her Little Secrets! Now she is ten and writing a screenplay called Mertastic. It is a story about a mermaid. Recently, she was visiting our house again and using my computer. She called me to come into my office and of course I came to her because that is what grandparents love to do. One of the reasons I love to be with her is because it is always interesting to see what she is up to. This time, she needed a mermaid tail for her movie, so we began to look around using Google. Her mother is a talented seamstress and will make the tail so we were looking for fabric that would be satisfy my granddaughter's vision of her mermaid tail. Once again we began to talk about Made in America and therefore started to investigate the country of origin of the fabrics she was considering. Because of that experience Made in USA fabric is now one of Made in America Secrets products. Thank you, Britton.

Touch ?n Seal and Touch ?n Foam products are entirely BPE-Free, and are not / will not be affected by any current or pending legislation targeted at banning brominated flame retardants. As of January, 2006, 14 states have enacted, or are in the process of enacting, legislation to ban specific brominated flame retardants. Numerous scientific studies have found some brominated flame retardants have leached into groundwater from landfills, ultimately ending up in the human bloodstream. Because of a solid body of scientific evidence, many states are now being proactive by restricting the usage of these compounds. The chemical compounds are generally called BPEs (brominated diphenyl ethers), or PBPEs (polybrominated diphenyl ethers), and the specific compounds under the threat of a ban are penta-BPEs, octa-BPEs, and deca-BPEs. They are commonly used in electronic applications, and sometimes in polyurethane spray foams. This legislation will have no effect on any Touch ?n Seal or Touch ?n Foam product. |
