Health Canada issues urgent warning about Hally Hansen sweaters and hoodies

Concerns about flammability led to the recall of about 130,000 Helly Hansen sweaters and hoodies in Canada.

A variety of Helly Hansen winter clothing has been recalled, according to a notice from Health Canada, because they "either do not or may not comply with the textile flammability regulations."

The national health agency advised consumers in the notification to "immediately stop using the recalled Helly Hansen sweaters and hoodies" and to "contact the manufacturer for a product replacement credit."

However, according Health Canada, Helly Hansen estimated that 128,680 of the impacted goods were sold in Canada between August 2019 and 2022.

No incidents or injuries with the affected products have been reported.
