Molenaar LLC Talks to Promo Marketing About Voluntary Product Recall in Canada
On August 24, industry supplier Molenaar LLC, Willmar, Minn., talked with Promo Marketing about a voluntary product recall it had issued the day prior. The recall was for two specific models of electroluminescent night lights that the company had manufactured and distributed from 2005 to 2009. The recall is active in Canada only, and is the result of four incidents of minor smoking and property damage reported to the Electrical Safety Authority of Ontario (ESA). Molenaar LLC and Underwriters Laboratories (UL), the company that handles safety testing and certification for all of Molenaar LLC's electrical products, have contacted the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and provided them with the necessary information and written planning for an American recall, but as of August 24, are waiting for the organization to respond. "We are bound by the regulatory agency CPSC to use their terms for a recall in the United States. In that regard, we must wait for their approval," said Steve Meyer, vice president of sales for Molenaar LLC.
