Legal
Please review the following links for a detailed overview of our legal policies and compliances.
California Proposition 65
Warning: Products may contain one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm.
California law requires businesses to provide a clear and reasonable warning to customers purchasing products in the state of California and to customers having products shipped to California before knowingly or intentionally exposing a person to a listed chemical.
This warning is required when a business is aware of or believes one or more chemical is present in their products. Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams is therefore providing this warning because these chemicals may be present in our products.
Energy Efficiency Statement
Energy Efficiency Statement CAL Title 20:
Ensuring compliance of lamps sold in and shipped to California.
In accordance with California Title 20 Compliance, all of our lamps sold in and shipped to California are Title 20 Compliant.
Flame Retardant Statement
Flame retardant statement tb cal 117-2013/ sb 1019:
Effective January 1, 2015, the State of California passed a new flammability for upholstered furniture Technical Bulletin 117–2013. This standard eliminates the open flame test for upholstery components and revises the smolder resistance requirements. All upholstered furniture sold in California must comply with the new flammability standard and use the TB 117–2013 flammability label.
Also effective January, 2015, California lawmakers passed and additional measure requiring a new section on the TB 117–2013 compliance label. SB 1019 requires manufacturers to specify whether or not a product contains flame retardant chemicals. We are in compliance with TB 117–2013 and SB 1019.
At Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams, we have removed flame retardant chemicals from our upholstered furniture. We have conducted testing and will continue to do so as necessary to ensure that we meet all required safety standards, laws and regulations. We are committed to manufacturing and selling safe, comfortable furniture.
There are no flame retardants in our residential line of fabrics used in retail stores, nor are there flame retardant chemicals present in our fire barrier material*.
When a customer in California orders a piece using their own fabric, however, we will need to ensure this fabric is TB 117–2013 and SB 1019 compliant. An additional form should be completed and submitted to confirm compliance.
*NOTE: All SPO and SSIP orders are CAL 117–2013 and SB 1019 compliant.
Information Provided on Our Website for Upholstered Products
Handmade upholstery involves the contributions of many skilled individuals, who manually cut, sew, and upholster each upholstered product. Given the unavoidable variations in the materials selected and the nature of human craftsmanship, there will be minimal, but measurable, differences in the actual measurements of each upholstered product created for you from those stated on our website. In other words, the stated dimensions and other specifications included on our website for each individual product are our standard measurements, and each handmade piece will vary slightly from those standard measurements. We also round the upholstered product measurements included on our website up to the nearest one inch (1”).
