On January 24, 2014, the European Commission’s non-food rapid warning system issued a consumer warning on Chinese-made “Super” brand towels decorated with strawberries. The notifying country in this case is Spain. The towel notified this time is folded into the shape of a small cake. The towel is decorated with strawberry and leaf-shaped decorations. It is packaged in transparent plastic with a label; the product style/model is Ref.56041, and the barcode is 6940471560419. Economic Cooperation and The development organization industry classification code (OECD Portal Category) is 75000000 (home/office furniture/home furnishings).
Since the decorative strawberries on this towel resemble food, they are easy to attract children to accidentally eat, posing a choking hazard. They do not comply with EU Directive 87/357/EEC.
At present, the Spanish authorities have taken measures to withdraw this product from the market.
To this end, it is recommended that relevant domestic production and export enterprises attach great importance to this.
