IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE - JOMA IRIS CHILDREN'S RAIN JACKET 100087
Dear Customer,
BE Uniforms is committed to the safety and satisfaction of our customers. As part of Joma UK's ongoing product monitoring and safety compliance efforts, they have identified a potential safety concern with Joma Iris children's rain jackets in sizes 6XS to XS.
These jackets have been supplied with drawstrings in the hoods that feature free ends. While the hoods are designed to store away in the collar of the jacket, the presence of free-ended drawstrings poses a safety risk for children, as it does not comply with established safety standards for children's garments.
WHAT YOU NEED TO DO
if your child owns an affected jacket, we kindly request that you take the following actions:
1. Stop using the jacket immediately: Discontinue the use of the jacket until the issue has been resolved.
2. Remove the hood cord: To eliminate the risk, please pull the drawstring completely through the hood and dispose of it. This will render the jacket safe for further use.
3. Return the jacket to us (if preferred): If you do not wish to remove the hood cord yourself, you may return the jacket to us. We will carry out the corrective action on your behalf.
If you have any questions, concerns, or further guidance regarding this issue, please do not hesitate to contact your local sales representative.
Sincerely,
William & Ross Smillie
Joint Managing Directors at BE Uniforms
