All 81 headphones tested contained harmful chemicals linked to cancer and hormone disruption, researchers say.
A study by the ToxFREE project found hazardous chemicals, including cancer-linked and hormone-disrupting substances like BPA, BPS, phthalates, and flame retardants, in all 81 headphones tested from major brands such as Bose, Panasonic, Samsung, and Sennheiser.
