CPSC, Hellenic Rug Imports Announce Recall of Flammable Rugs
Product Description
The recalled "Mazarakis" rugs are white only. Two models/sizes are recalled: "Mazarakis Flokati 3A" measuring 5 feet by 7 feet, pile and backing 100 percent New Zealand wool and "Mazarakis Floco" measuring 5 feet, 6 inches by 8 feet, 6 inches, 100 percent New Zealand wool pile and 100 percent Polypropylene backing.
Reason for Recall
Certain rugs distributed from January 2003 through February 2004 fail to meet the federal mandatory standard for flammability under the Flammable Fabrics Act. If the rugs ignite, they may not self-extinguish, presenting a risk of burn injuries.
Remedy
Consumers should immediately stop using the product and contact Hellenic Rug Importers to arrange for a free replacement.
