Hundreds of organic baby- and toddler-sized rompers sold by an Ontario-based sustainable clothing company have been recalled over concerns they could catch fire and injure children, according to Health Canada.
In its recall notice issued this week, the agency encouraged customers to return select Pehr Design Inc. Kimono Rompers for a full refund. as the items “do not comply with the flammability requirements for children’s sleepwear, posing a risk of burn injuries to children.”
Manufactured in India, the recalled rompers were available in 15 different designs and in three different sizes (six to 12 months, 12 to 18 months and 18 to 24 months).
Health Canada says loose-fitting sleepwear poses a larger fire-related risk than tight-fitting rompers as the additional fabric could “contact ignition sources such as stove elements, candles, and matches.”
