Children’s clothing sets recalled due to violation of the federal lead paint, lead content ban; lead poisoning hazard

Bentex recalls about 87,000 children’s clothing sets recalled due to violation of the federal lead paint, lead content ban; lead poisoning hazard.

According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the textile ink painted on the recalled clothing sets contains levels of lead that exceed either the federal lead paint ban or the federal lead content ban, posing a lead poisoning hazard. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health issues.

The recall involves Bentex children’s clothing sets in nine different Disney themed styles. The item and batch numbers are printed on the clothing neck or side label. The following styles are included in the recall.
