What risks?
To avoid the slightest incident that could lead to a scandal, brands are being very cautious these days. And in case of doubt about the dangers of a food or an object offered for sale, manufacturers prefer to anticipate by launching a product recall. Determined to prioritize child safety, Crayola therefore published an alert on the site Consumption reminder. The information sheet describes a chemical risk due to dangerous components suspected of being present in paint tubes. To know :
To read Oysters from the Arcachon basin (and elsewhere): beware of norovirus!
- an allergenic and carcinogenic, mutagenic and reprotoxic substance (formaldehyde).
- an allergenic substance for the skin.
Which can give rise to poisoning and external injuries ! A worrying situation, when we know that the first one must theoretically be used with bare hands by very young children. If you think you purchased one of the kits affected by this product recall, here is the instructions :
- Do not use this paint anymore, and do not leave it within the reach of children.
