Both measures ordered by national authorities and measures taken voluntarily by producers and distributors are covered by RAPEX.
The list below is an overview of the reported products last week. Click here for the full details, which can be found in the weekly RAPEX report. It includes detailed information on the products and risks, the notifying Member State, and the measures adopted to deal with the risk.
