Product Recall: H-Line GOLD ‘Soft as Down’ Synthetic Pillows & Duvets; H-Line SILVER ‘Anti Allergy’ Synthetic Pillows & Duvets and H-Line BRONZE ‘Hollowfibre’ Synthetic Pillows & Duvets

Following testing, Makro Cash & Carry has identified some quality concerns with a small number of products under the H-Line bedding range.

Safety is a business priority at Makro and although we have received no complaints relating to these products, the results from our tests indicate that the fibres in the pillows of the H-Line GOLD ‘Soft as Down’, SILVER ‘Anti-Allergy’ Synthetic and BRONZE ‘Hollowfibre’ bedding range fall short of the FURNITURE AND FURNISHINGS (FIRE) (SAFETY) REGULATIONS 1988 - AMENDED 1989, 1993 AND 2010 SCHEDULE 2 PART 1 (BASED ON BS 5852 PART 2). For this reason and in the interest of customer safety Makro UK has decided as a precautionary measure to withdraw the ENTIRE RANGE of H-Line GOLD ‘Soft as Down’, SILVER ‘Anti-Allergy’ and BRONZE ‘Hollowfibre’ Synthetic pillows and duvets from sale with immediate effect and to recall them from our customers.

We are certain the risk is limited to a small number of products as follows:
