Background
Sisu Inc. has advised Health Canada that the packaging defect was caused by a manufacturing issue involving some of the 100cc glass bottles used in the packaging of certain Sisu products beginning in October 2015 through March 2016.
According to the company, an issue in the bottle manufacturing process resulted in a small piece of glass being left attached to the bottom-inside surface of the bottle. Sisu identified the problem after receiving a customer complaint. To date, no injuries have been reported to the company or to Health Canada associated with this defect.
