Mous Marine Protective Case for iPhone Starter Kit

F · High PFAS

Lower concern, but lack of transparency on protective coatings limits full confidence.

Mous Marine cases use TPU and polycarbonate, base materials with lower inherent PFAS risk. However, the 'Marine Protective' branding suggests water-resistant or waterproof coatings whose composition Mous does not publicly disclose.

What we don’t know

This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 62% confidence. It is not a lab result.

No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.

The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.

Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
