A company in East China will today begin the country's first voluntary toy recall.
About 18,000 plastic toys made by Huanxi Toy Co Ltd, based in Yiwu, Zhejiang province, between June 20 of last year and March 1, contain small parts that pose choking hazards, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ) said in a statement yesterday.
"It's the first recall in the country since a new regulation requiring toy companies to voluntarily recall potentially dangerous products took effect in August," the announcement said.
