On January 12, 2017, Health Canada and Triboro Quilt Manufacturing Corporation jointly announced a voluntary recall of baby bathrobes made in China.
The products recalled this time are baby bathrobes. The specific information of the product is as follows:
The recalled products were sold in 98 units at BuyBuyBaby stores in Canada and the www.bedbathandbeyond.ca online store from January 2015 to December 2016. The reason for the recall is that Health Canada’s sampling tests determined that the recalled products did not meet the requirements of Canadian law regarding the flammability of children’s pajamas. Children’s loose-fitting pajamas are more likely to come into contact with ignition sources such as stoves, candles and matches than tight-fitting pajamas. Once ignited, loose pajamas will burn quickly and may cause severe burns over large areas of a child’s body. Therefore, cotton is not allowed in loose fitting pajamas fabrics.
As of January 4, 2017, the company has not received any reports of accidents or personal injuries related to the use of this product. For more information about sleepwear safety, check out the HealthyCanadianschildren’ssleepwear page.
Health Canada advises consumers to immediately stop using the recalled products and contact TriboroQuilt Manufacturing for a full refund. Canada implements voluntary recall of Chinese baby bathrobes
