The Orb Factory Orb Funkee Squeeze Toys
Official title: Orb Funkee Squeeze Toys Recalled Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Asbestos Exposure; Imported by The Orb Factory
Orb Funkee sand-filled squeeze toys (large golden monkee and small assorted monkees, date code 3102491A) were sold at Walmart and Ollie's Bargain Outlet stores. They were recalled because the sand may contain fibrous tremolite (asbestos), which can cause adverse health issues if inhaled.
What to do
Consumers should take the recalled toys away from children, stop using them immediately and contact The Orb Factory for a refund. Consumers will be asked to verify the code and lot number of the toy, place the toy in a heavy-duty plastic bag, seal the bag securely with tape, and submit a photo of the product in the bag to customerservice@orbtoys.com. If the toy has been ruptured or pierced, or the sand has escaped the toy, the Orb Factory has directed consumers to put on a mask and gloves and use damp cloths to pick up any sand that has leaked out; put the toy, cloths, mask and gloves in a heavy-duty plastic bag, then place this bag into a second bag (double-bagging) that is to be sealed with tape. Consumers should then dispose of the bag in accordance with local and/or state regulations.
