Pajamas

Important safety notice for pajamas in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2023/988 on general product safety (GPSR)

This is a targeted safety notice for the correct and safe use of pajamas (cotton, flannel, viscose, modal, bamboo, polyester, and blended; two-piece sets, overalls/onesies, models with buttons, zippers, snaps, elastic waistbands, or drawstrings). Since they can be flammable, contain small or sharp parts, and improper cut or tightening can increase the risk of overheating or skin pinching, please follow the instructions below.

Basic safety and handling principles

• Keep out of reach of small children: Buttons, snaps, and decorations pose a choking/inhalation hazard; the product is not a toy.
• Check before use: Inspect seams, buttons, zippers, snaps, elastic parts, and drawstrings; do not use if any part is loose, torn, or damaged.
• Fire and heat: Fabrics are flammable; keep pajamas away from open flames, candles, stoves, and heat sources. Do not wear loose sleeves when making candles/cooking.
• Drawstrings and fastenings: For children's models, avoid long drawstrings and loose ends around the neck, waist, and hood; there is a risk of entanglement/strangulation.
• Sharp edges and pinching: When fastening zippers, protect skin and underwear to prevent pinching or scratching.

Correct and safe use

• Proper size and fit: Pajamas should be comfortable, neither too tight nor too loose (risk of catching on objects). They must not restrict breathing around the neck.
• Layering and temperature: Adjust material thickness to the ambient temperature; overheating increases the risk of discomfort and skin problems, especially in children.
• Activities and movement: Avoid long, loosely hanging parts (hems, drawstrings) during active play and on stairs, as they may catch on objects.
• Sleep for infants and young children: Do not use scarves/strings/hoods during sleep; simple cuts without loose accessories are suitable.
• Purpose: Pajamas are not protective workwear or thermal shields; do not use when handling chemicals or open flames.

Cleaning, maintenance, and storage

• Wash according to the label: Follow the recommended temperature and procedure. Excessively high temperatures can cause shrinkage, color fading, and fiber weakening.
• Detergents and fabric softeners: Use gentle products; excess perfumes and optical brighteners may irritate sensitive skin.
• Drying and ironing: Dry away from direct sunlight and heat sources; iron according to fiber type (synthetics at low temperature).
• Fastenings and metal parts: Close zippers/snaps before washing; after contact with sweat or salt water, wipe parts dry.
• Storage: Store in a dry, dark place; avoid moisture (mold, odor) and prolonged compression of elastic parts.

Specific health warnings

• Allergies and sensitive skin: Dyed fabrics, latex in elastics, and metal in snaps/fastenings (e.g., nickel) may cause reactions; if redness or itching occurs, stop using the pajamas and choose a hypoallergenic alternative.
• Skin abrasions and pressure: Tight elastics at waist/cuffs may cause marks; adjust size or choose softer finishes.
• Overheating and chilling: Monitor temperature comfort in children and seniors; change wet clothing if sweating occurs.

Disposal

• Sorted waste and textile collection: Deliver clean textiles to textile collection/reuse points; recycle damaged pieces according to local regulations. Separate metal parts if possible.

Incidents and contact

• In case of an incident (allergic reaction, zipper pinching, fall due to catching), stop using the product immediately. Keep the product and proof of purchase for complaint handling.
