Bakugan Long-Sleeved Pyjama Set for children

Product description

This recall involves a Bakugan-themed pyjama set made of 100% cotton. The top and bottom are long sleeved and come in blue and black, or red and black. The bottoms have "Bakugan Battle Brawlers" printed on the waistband. Style 4021273LA and CA07465 can be found on a tag attached to the sleepwear.

Hazard identified

The recalled sleepwear does not meet the design and flammability requirements for children's sleepwear under Canadian law.

Children's sleepwear that is loose fitting or that has loose edges can contact ignition sources such as stove elements, candles, and matches more easily than tight-fitting sleepwear. Once ignited, the sleepwear can burn rapidly and cause severe burns to large areas of the child's body, resulting in shock and sometimes death.

Neither Health Canada nor L'Aubainerie has received reports of incidents or injuries related to the use of these pyjamas.

For more information, visit Health Canada's Children's Sleepwear Fact Sheet.
