Hazard

The green ground mat supplied with the product presents a serious chemical risk because it contains excess concentrations of phthalates. Phthalates may harm the health of children, causing possible damage to their reproductive system. The bag the product was supplied with is made of a material that is not sufficiently permeable to allow for ventilation, and therefore poses a potential asphyxiation hazard to a child. Improvements are required to marking, labelling and documentation. The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011 or the REACH Regulations 2008.

Remedy

Owners are advised to cease use of the green ground mat and drawstring bag and dispose of it safely. The product has been withdrawn from the market and destroyed. The listings have been withdrawn by the online marketplace (Amazon).
