NEW YORK (WXIN) — More than 80,000 sets of children’s clothing are being recalled because the paint contains levels of lead that violate federal law.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission said the recall involves Bentex children’s clothing sets in nine different Disney-themed styles. The clothing sets were sold at TJMAXX, DD’s/Ross, Burlington, Army & Airforce Exchange Service and other stores nationwide and online from November 2021 through August 2022.
The recall was initiated because the textile ink painted on the recalled clothing sets contains levels of lead that exceed either the federal lead paint ban or the federal lead content ban. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health issues.
The CPSC said exposure to lead can cause adverse health issues such as:
- Damage to the brain and nervous system
- Slowed growth and development
- Learning and behavior problems
- Hearing and speech problems
Children who experience these adverse effects can have a lower IQ, decreased ability to pay attention, and underperformance in school. The CDC said there is also evidence that childhood exposure to lead can cause long-term harm.
