Leslie’s, a direct-to-consumer brand in the U.S. pool and spa care industry, is urging consumers to immediately stop using chlorinating tablets sold on Amazon and other third-party seller marketplaces under imported product brand names originating from China and other countries. 200gram Chlorine Tablets
The products do not bear the required U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) label and could cause harm to swimmers, the environment, and pool equipment.
The imported chlorine tablets are sold under the following brand names: Rayyakicg; Womtri; Mr. Bee; Superpool; Yumitis; LushRoyale; Adevit; Wisive; Lonko5Ding; Flyjoy; G-Mood; and Ghantoy.
The U.S. EPA is the federal agency protecting people and the environment from significant health risks, sponsoring and conducting research, as well as developing and enforcing environmental regulations.
Under the U.S. Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), sanitizing products such as chlorinating tablets used in swimming pools—one of the most common pool sanitizer used in the nation—must be registered with the U.S. EPA and have labeling that includes an EPA registration number, an EPA establishment number, and the name of the manufacturer or distributor of the product.
The above brand names are currently sold in 25.4-mm (1-in.) and 76.2-mm (3-in.) tablets in 1.2-, 2.3, and 3.6-kg (2.65-, 5-, and 8-lb) packages and do not include this mandatory EPA labelling. Without the EPA label, pool owners should not assume these chlorinating products will keep pool water safe and free from harmful contaminants or that they are generally safe for swimmers and the environment.
Leslie’s encourages pool owners to read labels closely for these crucial EPA labeling requirements when purchasing any pool sanitization products and chemicals from any retailer.
“We support the EPA in their efforts to ensure pool products are safe for consumer use, and we want to ensure all pool owners are informed of these potentially harmful products so we can make the upcoming 2023 swim season safe for all,” says Mike Egeck, CEO of Leslie’s.
