Unsafe household items, seizures in Olbia and Alghero
Operations in two franchise stores of a well-known brand
250 household items, lacking the minimum certifications and indications for the consumer and therefore considered unsafe, were seized by the Financial Police in two franchise stores of a well-known brand.
During checks in Olbia and Alghero, dozens of items displayed in shop windows were identified that did not comply with the regulations on the materials used and the processing methods. The absence of the "CE" mark was also noted, which demonstrates the object's compliance with all essential safety requirements and compliance with all conformity procedures.
A total of 249 pieces were seized, with their respective packaging, and the shop owners were reported to the Chamber of Commerce.
The financial penalty ranges from 516 euros to 25,823.
