Description
Children’s mask with a wig, resembling a monster's head, made of soft plastic (face) or textile material (head's back). Packaging: plastic bag.
Risk
The wig is not sufficiently self-extinguishing in the event that it is ignited by a flame and the mask does not provide sufficient ventilation area. Moreover, the plastic bag of the packaging is too thin. A child could consequently receive burns or the mask may cause asphyxiation. If a child plays with the packaging, the plastic can cover the mouth and nose, causing the child to suffocate.The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
