Hi, I bought some blackout curtains from Dunelm Mill about 3 weeks ago. I noticed a strange musty smell coming from the lining which has faded slightly but is still there. Anyway, there are a few websites that say that blackout lining is toxic and contain endocrine disruptors.
The curtains are made entirely from polyester but the lining has a thermal coating which I presume is what is apparently toxic.
Does anyone know if there is any truth in it? My baby is due next Tuesday and will be sleeping in the same room as me and I'm thinking that maybe I should put my old curtains back up again.
Thank you
Sarah
