Changelog
What changed, and why.
Certifications lapse. Formulations change. We get things wrong. When a record changes we say so here rather than editing it quietly — including the corrections, which are the entries worth reading.
September 2026
-
Published 'The Hype vs. the Recall Record' guide, citing the Fisher-Price Rock 'n Play recall verbatim from CPSC 19-105.
-
Added Agabang (South Korea) — Seoul-based baby clothing and essentials.
Conservative listing pending a claim-check of its material and safety documentation.
-
Added safety-standard explainers for EN 71-9/10/11, ASTM F406 and FDA food-contact substances (21 CFR).
-
Added Health Canada recalls, mirrored without brand attribution.
Health Canada names the recalling firm only inside prose. Parsing a company out of free text risks pinning a recall on the wrong business, so Canadian notices appear on the recalls page but never on a brand page.
-
Added nine brands from Germany, Denmark, Spain, Sweden, the UK, New Zealand, Japan and the US.
The catalogue now spans five regulatory regions rather than mostly one. Every new entry is at the Claimed tier and quotes the brand's own declaration rather than paraphrasing it — including the scope limits, like Serendipity's "GOTS certified ... except tights".
-
Added ten brands from Canada, Japan, Australia, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Italy and Denmark — the first Canadian listings.
The catalogue now spans six regulatory regions. Every new entry is at the Claimed tier and reports the brand's own declaration rather than paraphrasing it, stating plainly what has not yet been checked.
-
Added Done by Deer, Egmont Toys, SIGG, MAM, NUK, Tommee Tippee, Moyuum and Laranjinha — filling Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, South Korea and Portugal.
The Korean and Portuguese listings carry only what is safe to assert without having pulled their specific claims yet, and say so plainly.
-
Added safety-standard explainers for the CCPSA & Toys Regulations (Canada), the ST Mark (Japan) and AS/NZS ISO 8124 (Australia & New Zealand).
These fill the regime gaps for the regions the catalogue now covers. Each explainer states what the mark does not mean, not just what it covers.
-
Added three guides: the safety marks of the world, how to read a recall notice, and a feeding-safety checklist.
-
Added Reima (Finland), Liewood (Denmark), Sophie la girafe (France) and Tegu (Honduras).
Liewood publishes its own recall and safety-warning reports, which is cited rather than paraphrased. Reima's origin and "since 1944" claim were pulled directly from the brand's own site.
-
Started mirroring U.S. CPSC recall notices for children's products.
-
Added EU Safety Gate and UK OPSS recall mirrors.
Safety Gate is the strongest of the feeds: alerts carry the Commission's own product categories, brand, country of origin and risk type as structured fields.
-
Added eight safety-standard explainers: CE, EN 71, CPSIA, ASTM F963, UKCA, GOTS, OEKO-TEX and FSC.
Each says what the mark requires AND what it does not cover — the gap between what a label implies and what it certifies is where most shoppers are misled.
