Motivo del Retiro / Peligro

The product is being recalled because samples have tested positive for tremolite asbestos, which is a prohibited substance in Australia.

Descripción del Producto e Identificación

Reason / Defects: The product is being recalled because samples have tested positive for tremolite asbestos, which is a prohibited substance in Australia. Hazards: The product may cause a risk to health as asbestos has been detected in some samples after laboratory testing. Importantly, respirable asbestos has not been detected in any of the tested samples. The release of respirable asbestos fibres is unlikely to occur in its current state, unless the sand is processed by mechanical means such as crushing or pulverising. The risk that any asbestos found is likely to be airborne or fine enough for inhalation is low. What to do: Stop using the product immediately. Contact Kmart or Target with proof of purchase to arrange a full refund. For safe disposal advice from the Asbestos and Silica Safety and Eradication Agency, visit the ACCC Product Safety website .
