MILAN - IKEA invites all customers who have purchased a Troligtvis travel glass bearing the wording "Made in India" not to use it. Recent tests indicate that the product can release chemicals in quantities exceeding the established limits. Ikea therefore invites customers to return the travel glass to the nearest Ikea store, where they will receive a full refund.

Product safety is fundamental for Ikea - explains a company note -. All Ikea products are constantly tested and must comply with the standards and laws in force, as well as the internal requirements of the company itself. Ikea has recently received the results of some tests that indicate that the Troligtvis travel glass with the wording "Made In India" can release levels of dibutylphthalate (DBP) above the established limits. For many years Ikea - explains the company - has decided to ban the use of phthalates from products intended for contact with food and therefore immediately blocked the sale of travel glasses, while launching an investigation.

The latter has shown that the glasses marked with the wording "Made in India" can present the reported problem and therefore Ikea has decided to withdraw them from the market despite the risk of immediate negative effects on health is very low.

The Troligtvis travel glass has been on sale since August 2019. Ikea invites customers who have purchased one of these "Made in India" travel glasses to return the product to the nearest Ikea store, where they will receive a full refund. . Tax receipt is not required.
