Hazard Information
The hazard is chemical in nature. Laboratory analysis found that the migration of boron from the toy slime is too high, with a measured value up to 502 mg/kg. The risk description states that ingestion of, or contact with, an excessive quantity of boron may harm the health of children by damaging their reproductive system. The product fails to meet the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and the European standard EN 71-3 (which sets limits for migration of certain elements from toy materials).

Consumer Action Required
The recall notice does not specify direct instructions for consumers. However, because the measure was “import rejected at border,” it indicates that the product was prevented from entering the market in Croatia. Consumers who may have already purchased the product are advised to contact the relevant authorities or the importer for guidance. No explicit consumer-facing recall programme or steps are listed in the source data.

Official Remedy
The official remedy ordered by the Croatian authorities is rejection of the import at the border. This measure was required of the importer. The date of entry into force of the measure is 29 April 2026. No remedy such as a refund, replacement, or in‑market recall is described in the notice, as the product did not pass import controls.

Contact Information
No specific contact information (e.g., phone number, email, website) for the importer, manufacturer, or notifying authority is provided in the recall notice.
