China recall again due to violation of lead paint standard

Pearl-like Bead Attachment
I know many of the worlds products are manufactured in China these days because of how cheap it is out there, but how many recalls are we getting of late from China and I am talking for the same topic “Lead Paint”.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is reporting that a Pearl-like Bead Attachment that was sold with girl’s gift sets has been voluntary recalled because of a “violation of lead paint standard”.

This product was sold exclusively at Limited Too Stores and the CPSC is warning people to stop using the recalled product immediately unless you have been otherwise instructed.

This apparently affects around 4,000 “Decorative Packaging Pearl-like Bead Attachments sold with Girl’s Gift Sets” and the “Surface coating on a plastic bead decorative packaging attachment contains excessive levels of lead”.

We have not heard of any injuries and you can Read the full details on the Consumer Product Safety Commission site
