Hazard identified
Health Canada’s sampling and evaluation program has determined that these products do not meet the flammability requirements for children’s sleepwear under Canadian law.
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. For this reason, cotton is not permitted in loose-fitting sleepwear.
Neither Health Canada nor Bête pas Bête design Inc. has received reports of incidents or injuries related to the use of this sleepwear.
Number sold
Approximately 184 units of the children’s sleepwear have been sold in Canada, primarily online.
