Temu product recalled due to serious injury to child

A child was seriously injured in a hoodie sold on Temu and the products have now been recalled.

Several glow-in-the-dark hoodies from online marketplace giant Temu have been recalled over concerns about the risk of “serious burn injuries”.

The Pink Rainbow Unicorn, Purple Rainbow Unicorn, Blue Dinosaur and Space Planet hoodies are included in the Australian Product Safety recall notice because they do not contain the required warning label.

The warning states, “The product does not comply with the mandatory nightwear standard for children.”

As a result, one child was seriously injured.

“There is a risk of serious burn injuries if exposed to a heat or flame source. Consumers may not be aware of this risk,” the PSA warning states.

“An incident occurred that resulted in serious injury to a child.”

Consumers are urged to keep the product out of the reach of children and dispose of it or dispose of it immediately.

“Consumers will receive a full refund from Temu on behalf of the Sunshine Towels merchant,” the alert states, with further information available on the Temu Support Centre.
