Sportime recalls BigBox Hockey Sets due to lead paint in the boards. Consumers should stop using and get a refund to avoid lead exposure in children.
The surface coating on the boards, which are assembled together to form the floor hockey playing-field, contain excessive levels of lead, violating the federal lead paint standard.
Sportime is recalling all BigBox Hockey Sets because the boards contain excessive lead paint, which violates federal safety standards. This poses a risk of lead poisoning for children who might touch or ingest the paint.
The boards contain lead paint that can be ingested or absorbed through skin contact, especially by young children who may put their hands in their mouth after touching the boards. Lead exposure can cause serious health issues, including developmental delays and neurological damage.
Children who play with or touch the recalled hockey sets are at risk of lead poisoning. Parents and caregivers of children under 6 years old are most affected.
Recalled sets include BigBox Hockey Sets with six boards in six colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. These sets were sold as children's floor hockey equipment.
Immediately remove the recalled hockey sets from children and avoid further use.
