H&M Girls ribbed pyjamas recalled due to flammability hazard
Summary

Affected products
This recall involves the viscose-polyester-elastane blended H&M girls ribbed two-piece pyjamas. The model number 1044037 is indicated on the label, and the UPC codes are: 1044037001 (Light Pink) and 1044037002 (Taupe).
Issue
Health Canada has determined that these products do not meet the flammability requirements for children’s sleepwear of the Children’s Sleepwear Regulations.
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.
As of December 03, 2021, the company has received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada.
