Lead-Based Paint
Lead is a soft pliable metal found in multiple products including bullets, paint, varnashes, shellacs, ceramics, piping, solders, gasoline, batteries and even cosmetics. Today, federal and state regulatory standards help to limit and/or prevent lead hazards from being added to consumer products and utilized in occupational settings.
Lead-based paint in older homes, old piping, contaminated soil, household dust, drinking water, lead crystal, and lead-glazed pottery are the leading sources of lead exposure in the United States.
