Frequently asked questions

Is polyester-1 safe during pregnancy?
No authoritative reproductive/toxicological safety flags found for "Polyester-1" (no CAS provided). No harmonised CLP classification (ECHA Annex VI), no SCCS or CIR safety assessment specifically for this INCI name, and no peer‑reviewed reproductive toxicity data located — consistent with a default polymer assessment of low hazard.
Is polyester-1 safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence of reproductive or lactation-specific toxicity for "Polyester-1" in the major databases searched (CIR, SCCS, ECHA C&L, PubMed). No harmonised classification or published data indicating transfer into milk or lactation risk.
Is polyester-1 safe for baby skin?
No hazard or mechanistic data indicating developmental or reproductive toxicity. As a polymeric 'polyester' (no CAS given) it is likely high molecular weight with negligible dermal absorption in adults (adult e=0); however immature infant skin has higher permeability so exposure score increased by +1 to reflect potential for low but measurable absorption in 0–3 yr olds.
