Unclear whether craft set is available in Isle of Man shops

The Isle of Man Office of Fair Trading is making the public aware of a product recall issued by Hobbycraft relating to one of its craft kits.

The recall has been issued after asbestos was identified in small containers of sand included in the company’s Giant Box of Craft product.

At this stage, it is not known whether this item is available in Isle of Man shops; however, the OFT is contacting local retailers as a precaution.

The product has been withdrawn from the market and recalled from end users by Hobbycraft.
