Hazard

The metal zip on the underside of the product can detach at a low force and constitutes a small part. The product therefore poses a potential choking hazard to children under 36 months, who may place the detached part in their mouth and choke. The flexible plastic bag used for packaging also does not meet the minimum thickness required and therefore presents an asphyxiation hazard.

The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.

Corrective action

The import has been rejected at the border.
