In California there's no Porp 65 requirement to label items not related
to food preparation. Outside California there's no requirement to
include Prop 65 labels on anything.

Tiles for flooring aren't food preparation items. Not that I have any
idea how much lead leaches out of a tile into the crust of a pizza.
