Reported risk: The product is classed as Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). The product was not supplied with the required compliance documentation or markings to demonstrate that they have been adequately conformity assessed. Mandatory third-party conformity assessment by a body authorised for PPE is required by the relevant Regulations for those products which protect against more serious risks, the absence of such independent assessment for such a product may increase the risk to the consumer that the product may not perform as expected when relied upon as a buoyancy aid. The product does not meet the requirements of the Regulation (EU) 2016/425 on personal protective equipment.
What to do

Check whether your product matches this notice (name, batch, dates). If it does, stop using it and follow the instructions in the official notice — refund, return, repair or disposal are set by the issuing authority and the business, and they differ per recall.
