Possible to buy a flame retardant-free sofa in Ireland?

    Looking to buy a sofa and wondering whether anywhere stocks imported sofas (EU) that have not been treated with flame retardants?

    (Before you think this is daft, there is good reason to consider it - including the fact that the flame retardants do little in the event of a fire (on the contrary quite possibly releasing dangerous fumes) and almost certainly pose a health risk in the meantime.

    See the 'Safe furniture .eu ' website (I can't post a link as too new here.)

    Of course, there may be some that are less dangerous than others, but good to ask what has been used on that new sofa you are considering buying.

    Much thanks in advance!
