Playand Sofa inner foam core is made from CertiPUR-US® certified 100% polyurethane foam. We are one of the retailers (A Mighty Venture Pte Ltd) officially listed on CertiPUR-US® website (https://certipur.us/list-of-participating-companies/#A) as part of our commitment to ensure and to inform that all our materials used are accredited and certified.

Our polyester suede covers are OEKO-TEX® certified, that have passed additional stringent tests to ensure product quality and assurance. 

CertiPUR-US® certified foams meet program standards for content, emissions, and durability, and are analyzed by independent accredited testing laboratories. 

• Made without formaldehyde

Like heavy metals, formaldehyde has never been used as a raw material in foam. Formaldehyde has been labeled as a cause of poor indoor air quality. The detection of less than 0.1 parts per million of formaldehyde in foam is verified in CertiPUR-US® certified foam by a small chamber emission test.

• Made without ozone depleters

The CertiPUR-US® label prohibits the use of any CFCs, or other ozone depleters, in the foam manufacturing process.

• Made without prohibited phthalates

CertiPUR-US® goes a step further by requiring detailed laboratory analysis of foam extractions and prohibiting the use of phthalates regulated by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission in all CertiPUR-US® certified foams.

• Made without mercury, lead and other heavy metals

CertiPUR-US® certified foams meet the Consumer Product Safety Commission toy standard for lead.

• Low emission (low VOCs)

CertiPUR-US® certified foams are tested using a small chamber test standardized by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). In the test, foam samples are conditioned for 72 hours after which emissions of total volatile organic compounds are measured. Results of this test verify that CertiPUR-US® compliant foams have low emissions for indoor air quality (less than 0.5 parts per million).

• Screened for relevant chemicals, including flame retardants, that are classified as carcinogens, mutagens or reproductive toxins and are harmful to human health

Playand covers are made from durable Polyester Suede covers which can be removed for washing. They are meant to be tight fitting, to ensure that there will be no tripping or choking hazards for children during play. Every sofa set purchase comes with our Waterproof Inner Linings (FREE) to protect your foam pieces from big spills. (we understand it is perfectly normal to have spills and splatters with kids!)

For The Polyester Suede and Corduroy Covers (Playand Sofa and Petite Series)

Playand is clad in removable and washable polyester suede that can be washed in washing machine and dried in a dryer (on cold run and delicate modes). For extra precaution, you can also vacuum the surface of the covers often to prevent dust accumulation. 

For The Polyester Suede Covers with Magnets (Playand Mini Magnetic Series)

Handwash in cold water and hang dry only.

For The Foam Pieces

For the foam pieces, do not pick at the foam or pluck at the foam to prevent damage. Do not put them under direct sunlight or heat. If the foam is soiled, spot clean with a wet cloth to absorb moisture and leave it in a cool place to air dry.

Yes, it is absolutely normal! Due to natural oxidation, or exposure to some heat during manufacturing, the foam pieces may present some slight yellowish tinge. This oxidation process is a natural process for Polyurethane foam, and especially since our CertiPUR-US® certified foams have no additional harmful chemicals to stop the oxidation process. However, the yellowish tinge does not render the foam pieces unsafe for use or change the foam density. To slow down the oxidation process, it is encouraged that you do not expose the foam pieces to direct heat or sunlight. However, we have upgraded our polyurethane foam to grey, as such, the discolouration is minimal.
