BPA-Free Receipt Paper Contains BPS

Thanks to an alert from one of our dear merchants, we have determined that the BPA free receipt paper that we worked to find and to offer contains bisphenol S (BPS). According to researchers at the State University of New York, BPS apparently has similar estrogen mimicking qualities that can be absorbed through the skin, and it is not clear as to whether BPS is any safer than BPA. Dharma will continue to offer BPA free paper and will continue to look for a source that has neither chemical present (so far we’ve been told none existed). We’ll keep you posted on what we find out and welcome any comments and suggestions!
