  • Brand Samefa

Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.

What happened

Samefa plastic dolls have been recalled because their plastic material contains bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) at levels up to 25 percent by weight. This chemical is prohibited in toys under the REACH Regulation because it may harm children's health, including potential damage to the reproductive system. The recall affects two products: a Mermaid doll with accessories in blister packaging (reference 3661, manufacturer's reference 31444W) and "The Mini Mermaids" dolls consisting of one large and one small mermaid (reference 4219, manufacturer's reference 532).

The measure was ordered against other economic operators, and imports of these dolls were rejected at the border effective November 5, 2014. The recall was reported by Spain. The source does not specify what consumers who already possess these dolls should do.
