Geomag · Dekopanel Animals

The product poses a risk of injuries (intestinal blockage) because the small magnets have a high magnetic flux value and if more than one magnet is swallowed they can be attracted to one another through the gut wall, causing perforation or blockage. The product does not comply with the Toy Safety Directive and with the relevant European standard EN71-1.
