- Hazard
- Products from lot number 2409140930201 have a manufacturing defect affecting the adhesive bond between the closure strips and the bag film. As a result, the closure strips may detach partially or completely during use, causing the product to lose its intended function and potentially releasing the enclosed magnets.
- The magnets constitute small parts and present a risk of injuries if swallowed, especially by young children. If one or more magnets are swallowed, they can attract each other within the body, causing serious internal injuries.
- The product does not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.
- Corrective action
- The product has been recalled from end users by Fidlock GmbH.
- Consumers should cease use of the product immediately, keep it out of reach of children, and dispose of it safely. Contact Fidlock directly via recall_2609@fidlock.com to register for a refund or replacement.
