Hazardous substances found in all headphones tested by ToxFREE project
-
An investigation into headphones has found every single pair tested contained substances hazardous to human health, including chemicals that can cause cancer, neurodevelopmental problems and the feminisation of males.
Even products by market-leading brands such as Bose, Panasonic, Samsung and Sennheiser were found to contain harmful chemicals in the formulation of the plastics from which they are made.
Researchers bought 81 pairs of in-ear and over-ear headphones, either on the market in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia and Austria, or from the online marketplaces Shein and Temu, and took them for laboratory analysis, testing for a range of harmful chemicals.
“Hazardous substances were detected in every product tested,” they said.
Bisphenol A (BPA) appeared in 98% of samples, and its substitute, bisphenol S (BPS), was found in more than three-quarters. Synthetic chemicals used to stiffen plastic, BPA and BPS mimic the action of oestrogen inside organisms, causing a range of adverse effects including the feminisation of males, early onset puberty in girls, and cancer. Previous studies have shown that bisphenols can migrate from synthetic materials into sweat, and that they can be absorbed through the skin.

“Stuff made from plastic contains chemicals that are in plastic.”
I’m not sure we needed a study on this.

That’s oversimplified, because it is possoble to make BPA- or BPS-free plastic.

The one joy I have everyday is listening to music with my headphones on at work, so I don’t have to hear my co-workers.
Can I please have something I enjoy that’s not giving me cancer?

You can enjoy the brand new boobs! Although I can’t guarantee them to be cancer free.

There is no ‘safe’ level for endocrine disruptors that mimic our natural hormones.”
I think the article is probably right that headphones have these chemicals and it is a bad thing, but as someone wearing headphones a large portion of hours in the day for the past few decades I’m wondering how much risk there actually is, which it doesn’t seem to weigh in on very much.
