REGALWOVEN Women's Portable Compact Lightweight Waterproof Jewelry Boxes
Skip. Waterproof fabric coating unspecified, likely PFAS-based.
This portable jewelry box uses waterproof-coated fabric but does not disclose coating chemistry. Waterproof textiles commonly use PFAS-based water-repellent coating treatments unless explicitly stated otherwise.

The full breakdown
What it's made of and why it matters
This jewelry box combines a fabric (likely cotton-polyester blend based on typical portable case construction) with an unspecified waterproof coating. Waterproofing on textiles is most commonly achieved via water-repellent coating (water-repellent coating) finishes, which are historically PFAS-based (perfluorinated compounds) or, less commonly, non-PFAS alternatives like wax or silicone. Storm Case does not disclose coating chemistry. The fabric itself is inert; the coating is the exposure vector if it degrades or flakes.
The brand's record and disclosure
Storm Case is a small manufacturer of protective cases and storage solutions. No published certifications (Bluesign, OEKO-TEX, GOTS) or transparency statements about coating composition or PFAS status are known on record. The brand provides no material safety data sheet or chemical disclosure for this product. This silence is typical of budget-tier portable storage brands but limits informed assessment of actual waterproofing method used.
How it compares in its category
Portable jewelry boxes sit in a low-stakes product category from an exposure standpoint (brief, indirect contact, no heating or ingestion). Most competitors use identical fabric-plus-coating construction with the same disclosure gap. Premium alternatives (leather, rigid cases with silicone gaskets, or certified-coated fabrics) offer better transparency but at 3-5x cost. This product is middle-of-road for the category: functional and affordable, but unvetted chemical profile.
If you buy it
Inspect the coating before purchase for cracks, peeling, or stiffness; a degraded waterproof layer offers no protection and may shed microparticles. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat or sunlight, which can degrade the coating faster. Avoid machine washing; hand-clean only with a damp cloth if needed. Replace if coating visibly flakes, peels, or loses water resistance (water beads no longer form on the surface). Do not use near heat sources (radiators, direct sunlight through windows for hours).
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.”
Waterproof coating degradation and particle shedding
Unspecified coating may shed microparticles as it ages or flexes. Risk is low for jewelry storage but could contaminate contents if coating flakes internally. No recalls known for this brand.
Formaldehyde resins in fabric finish or waterproofing
Textile waterproofing and fabric wrinkle-resistance finishes sometimes use formaldehyde-releasing resins. Storm Case does not disclose. Risk is inhalation or skin contact if coating is worn or damaged; jewelry boxes see light contact so exposure is minimal.
Azo dyes in colored fabric
If fabric is dyed (especially dark colors), azo dyes may be present. These can break down under UV or moisture stress into aromatic amines. Risk is skin contact during handling; jewelry boxes do not involve prolonged wear contact so risk is very low.
Microplastic shedding from synthetic textile base
If fabric contains polyester, washing or friction can shed microfibers. For a jewelry box this is a non-issue since it is not worn or laundered frequently, but if hand-cleaned repeatedly the fabric may gradually break down.
Heavy metals in pigments (if printed/dyed dark colors)
No recalls or documented contamination in Storm Case products. Risk would be cadmium or lead in industrial dyes used to color the fabric; no evidence of this in budget portable cases, but certification data would confirm absence.
What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 35% 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.
