Product Recalls and Safety Notices

RAPEX or Rapid Alert System is the EU rapid alert system for dangerous consumer products (except food). When a product e.g. a toy, childcare article or household appliance is found to be dangerous, the competent national authority takes appropriate action to eliminate the risk. It can withdraw the product from the market, recall it, or issue warnings.

The Trading Standards Central website contains a list of product safety notices and recalls.

You can also keep abreast of any safety repairs or recalls on products that you may have, by registering your appliances. Details can be found on the following link: Home - Register My Appliance
