Five sun protection products recalled by Matas

Matas is recalling five varieties of its own brand sun protection products, several of which are intended for children.

You can see a list of the products here.

Matas has detected an error with the spray nozzle can cause clogging, meaning the products do not fully live up to the promise to fully protect the user.

Products to be tested again
Matas has stopped selling the products and written to the customers who are members of Club Matas, as well as the customers who have shopped online via Matas.dk.

The products will now undergo further testing in laboratories in Spain and Germany. By mid to late August, Matas will make a decision via the products’ future.

If you have bought any of the products in question, you can return them at one of Matas’s 260 stores in Denmark.
