Asphyxiation risk: dangerous product alerts
54 EU Safety Gate alerts concern products with a asphyxiation hazard. The first dates from 16 December 2019, the latest from 1 October 2026. In the last four complete quarters there were 19, up from 6 in the four quarters before. Read from the official risk descriptions, the most common reasons are restricted chemical above the legal limit (28%), gas leak or carbon monoxide (24%) and alarm or detector does not work (22%). 67% were for products made in China, 9% were for products made in United Kingdom and 6% were for products made in Türkiye. The products flagged most are swim aids and inflatables (7%), fireworks (6%) and heaters (6%). 56% of the EU alerts were marked as sold online, and 33% name an online marketplace, most often Amazon, AliExpress and Wish. The most common outcome was withdrawn from the market (39% of EU alerts); 48% included a measure ordered by an authority. Chemicals named in the official risk descriptions include lead.
