Supermarket handbags recalled in UK over risk of 'damaging reproductive systems'
A MAJOR supermarket has pulled three of its handbags after they were found to pose a serious chemical risk.
TL;DR
- Asda has recalled three handbag models: Front Pocket XBody Bag, Opp Tote Bag, and Black Nylon Phone Bag.
- The bags contain excessive concentrations of Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), a chemical that can pose health risks.
- DEHP can cause possible damage to the reproductive system if found in excess quantities.
- The bags do not meet the safety requirements of REACH Regulations 2008.
- Customers are urged to stop using the bags immediately and return them to any Asda store for a full refund.
- No receipt is required for the refund process.
