Episode Details

A major recall is unfolding for craft sand products from Educational Colours after asbestos was found in them — a discovery that’s now triggering a wave of recalls across Australia and New Zealand. Initially downplayed by regulators who relied on the company’s own risk assessment (never independently verified), the situation shifted dramatically when new tests from Auckland University showed 90% of samples released asbestos into the air during normal play. This forced the ACCC to admit the products “may cause a risk to health,” and even major retailers like Kmart and Officeworks are now updating their notices to drop false claims about non-detectable respirable asbestos. Parents are demanding accountability as the truth slowly emerges — and the fallout continues.
