"Tandra Fashions" Boys Polo Pyjama Set

Product description

This recall involves Boys 2-Piece Polo Pyjama set sold under the brand name "Tandra Fashions". The set includes a blue t-shirt with "MOTO MX 76" printed on the chest area, and black boxer shorts with a green design. The sleepwear is made of 65% polyester and 35% cotton.

The sleepwear can be identified by the style number 1067 and UPC 156773000379 printed on the hang tag on the inside of the sleepwear.

Hazard identified

Health Canada has determined that the fabric content of the polo pyjama 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.

Health Canada has not received any reports of incidents or injuries related to the use of this sleepwear.

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