US EditionAsda, Matalan and Amazon recalls as shoppers told 'stop using them immediately'
UNITED KINGDOM, JUN 6 – The UK recalls include children’s swimwear, toys, and household items due to risks like strangulation, choking, chemical exposure, and fire hazards, officials said.
- Asda, Matalan, and Amazon have recalled products due to safety concerns, urging customers to stop using them immediately across the UK.
- The recalls were triggered by manufacturing defects in Asda's George Baby 3PK Zip Rompers, strangulation risks in Matalan boys’ swimwear, and a carcinogenic chemical in Amazon jewelry.
- Authorities responsible for product safety have identified hazards associated with these items, including sharp zip edges, unsafe draw cords, and the presence of banned chemicals, which could lead to injury or health concerns.
- For example, all sizes of George Baby rompers up to 24 months are recalled due to zips with sharp edges that may cause injury, and Amazon jewellery contains butylphenyl methylpropional, a banned chemical linked to cancer.
- The recalls highlight the need for stringent product safety compliance and consumer vigilance, with advisories to return affected items for full refunds at respective stores.
