Almost 2,700 kids surf ponchos have been recalled by Health Canada due to a fire hazard.
According to the federal authority, the Olaian ponchos, in various styles and colours, do not meet Canada’s flammability requirements for children’s sleepwear.
Health Canada is concerned that loose-fitting children’s sleepwear can contact ignition sources such as stove elements, candles, and matches more readily than tight-fitting sleepwear, and once ignited will burn rapidly, potentially resulting in severe burns to large areas of the child’s body.
What to do
Stop using the recalled ponchos immediately and contact the nearest point of sale for a refund.
