Description
A drinking glass made of tempered glass in multiple sizes (27 cl., 35 cl. and 65 cl.) and colours. Product sold online.
Risk
The product is made of tempered glass that may not sufficiently withstand thermal shock if it is scratched, for example by stacking, cleaning in the dishwasher and/or with abrasive sponges. This can cause the glass to break at its weakest point, potentially leading to the splattering of near-boiling liquid over hands or other limbs, causing injuries. The product does not comply with the requirements of the General Product Safety Directive.
