Inflatable turtle
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
An inflatable turtle toy sold under the INTEX brand contains unsafe levels of di-isononyl-phthalate (DINP), a chemical restricted in children's products. The valve contains 14.0% DINP by weight, the black handles contain 7.34% DINP by weight, and the green plastic foil with printing contains 24.2% DINP by weight. European regulations limit DINP concentration in toys to 0.1% by weight, and the product does not meet these requirements or relevant safety standards. Because children contact the toy directly during play, the product poses a serious health risk.
The affected product is a green PVC turtle with black handles, marked with the INTEX logo and "The wet set" label, with model number 56524 and EAN code 7825756524, made in China. The authorities have ordered the product withdrawn from the market and recalled from consumers. The source does not specify what action affected consumers should take with recalled products in their possession.
