Hazard

The product has been identified as presenting a high risk of choking due to the presence of small parts as received, despite the product being marked as suitable for children aged 0-2. A young child may put a small part in its mouth and the parents may notice in time, so the small part can block the child’s airways and cause the child to choke. The product also presents a risk of asphyxiation as the flexible bag used for packaging has an insufficient thickness. The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.

Remedy

The import has been rejected at the border.
