Risk and analytical results

hazardObserved
Other non-compliance identified: mislabelling of the products: the product is falsely declared as made of 100% bamboo due to the claim “Aus Bambus”, and the claim "umweltverträglich" is misleading as it focuses the customer’s attention on the ‘natural’ aspect rather than the real composition of the product (Art. 3 EU 1935/2004).
