Moore v. Integrated Supply Network, LLC

The parties involved in the case Moore v. Integrated Supply Network, LLC executed a Consent Judgment on March 31, 2016.  In this matter, citizen enforcer John Moore alleged that Integrated Supply Network, LLC (“ISN”) sold gloves with vinyl/PVC components containing the phthalate chemical di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (“DEHP”) in the State of California without providing the requisite health hazard warnings.  

As part of the agreement, ISN agreed not to sell any gloves with vinyl/PVC components in California after the Marin County Superior Court approves the Judgment, unless the gloves contain no more than 1,000 parts per million of DEHP in any accessible component when analyzed using state or federally approved testing methodologies, OR have Proposition 65 warnings provided.  Should ISN provide Moore with certification by August 1, 2016 that all gloves with vinyl/PVC components sold in California qualify as reformulated by the above standards, Moore has agreed to waive a portion of the civil fine.

The Consent Judgment required settlement payments of $27,700, divided therein between civil penalties, 75% of which are paid to California’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment, and compensation to whistleblower Moore and his counsel for their successful enforcement of this matter in the public interest.
