Quantum Single Sided Organizer ORG81832
Storage organizer; limited PFAS risk, no claims or testing found.
Quantum Storage's plastic organizer has no public PFAS disclosures or certifications. Generic plastic storage products typically pose lower concern than coated textiles or nonstick cookware, but no lab data available.

The full breakdown
What it's made of and why it matters
The Quantum ORG81832 is a rigid plastic storage organizer, most likely polypropylene (PP) or high-density polyethylene (HDPE) based on typical bin construction in this product class. These polymers are chemically stable at room temperature and do not readily leach when used as intended for dry goods storage. The single-sided divider design minimizes surface area and seams where degradation or contaminant migration could occur.
The brand's record and disclosure
Quantum Storage is a North American manufacturer specializing in industrial and garage organization products. No documented safety certifications, third-party testing, or PFAS disclosure statements are publicly available for this model. No recalls or toxicity complaints have been identified in public databases for Quantum storage bins. The brand maintains a silent stance on material safety transparency.
How it compares in its category
Rigid plastic storage organizers like this sit at the low-risk end of the storage category because they are not designed for food contact and remain unopened during typical use, limiting exposure pathways. Compared to flexible vinyl storage bags or multi-material organizers with adhesives or coatings, solid PP or HDPE bins present fewer leaching or off-gassing concerns. Most competitors in this segment carry the same material uncertainties and lack formal safety claims.
If you buy it
Store only dry goods, tools, or non-food items to avoid any unverified food-contact risk. Keep organizers in cool, dry conditions away from direct heat or sunlight, which can accelerate polymer aging. Do not wash with abrasive cleaners or expose to solvents, as scratches or chemical attack could theoretically expose interior plastic. Replace if visible cracks, discoloration, or brittleness develop over time, typically after 5-10 years of typical use.
Beyond PFAS: other things we checked
Established hazard classes for this product type, assessed from public information. These never change the PFAS grade; a Likely flag caps the Verdict at “Buy with care.”
BPA/BPS or other plastic additives leaching
No testing or complaints found for Quantum organizers; polypropylene formulations commonly used in storage bins do not typically require BPA. Risk is further minimized because this product is not heated or used with food.
Microplastics shedding or fragmentation
Over many years, UV exposure, thermal cycling, or physical stress can cause plastic brittleness and microscopic particle release. This is a general aging concern for all rigid plastic storage, not specific to Quantum, and poses minimal inhalation or ingestion risk in typical garage or closet use.
Volatile organic compound (VOC) or odor off-gassing
New plastic storage bins may release mild plastic odors or volatile residues from manufacturing for the first few weeks. This is typical for the category and poses no established toxicity risk; airing the organizer out before storing sensitive items is a prudent precaution.
Heavy metals in colorants or stabilizers
No documented cases of lead, cadmium, or antimony in Quantum storage bins; polymer colorants in rigid PP or HDPE are generally regulated and low-risk. Stabilizers used in bulk storage bins are not expected to contain heavy metals, but no formal third-party testing is available.
What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 65% 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.
