The discounter Tedi has to recall jewelry - there is a health risk.
The recall isn't the first - the same thing happened before in 2020.
The
non-food retailer Tedi
has to recall a jewelry set that poses health risks.
The
reason for the product recall
* is a particularly high nickel value.
This can
trigger health problems
, especially for those with
allergies
.
Munich - The non-food retailer Tedi is calling a jewelry set back in his shops.
The
earring and creole sets
are contaminated with increased nickel
values
, which can cause severe
allergic reactions
.
It is not the first recall * of this kind from Tedi: The dealer Tedi Schmuck had to call back in May of this year.
The reasons were similar back then.
And it is again the in-
house quality management
that reveals the contamination, not external inspectors of an authority, such as Produktwarnung.eu reports.

Product recall at Tedi: What makes nickel pollution so dangerous
The tricky thing about exposure to
elevated nickel levels
is that a particularly large number of people tend to be allergic to nickel.
According to information from Produktwarnung.eu, around 1.9 to 4.5 million people in Germany alone are sensitized to nickel - among children it should be around ten percent.
In order not to burden them, limit values have been introduced.
If they come into contact with nickel, renewed contact can
cause
an
allergy
.
They can
cause eczema
with
red
itchy skin or blistering.
