It is with regret that AN Paints has to announce that a shop assistant at the Paint Supplies retail outlet in Anytown sustained an injury to her eyes due to a can of AN Aluminium Paint bursting.
The shop assistant is currently undergoing treatment at the Anytown Medical Centre and AN Paints is ensuring that both her and her family’s needs are being taken care of.
As precautionary measure, whilst the cause of this incident is investigated, AN Paints is announcing a recall of all Aluminium Paint bearing Batch Number 222. We have already contacted all AN authorised dealers to ensure an orderly return of any Aluminium Paint remaining in stock. We are requesting any consumers or dealers who have purchased Aluminium Paint bearing Batch Number 222 to call the AN Paints Helpline at 0207 334 107 to arrange for the collection and replacement of the affected product. This recall only affects AN Aluminium Paint and all other AN Paints products remain safe for use.
AN Paints is a global Paints company with an excellent health and safety record and at this stage no definitive reason has been established for the incident. The cause of the incident is still being investigated by AN Paints working closely with the Health and Safety Agencies. We are extremely concerned as to how this incident occurred and we will strive to ensure that no such incident happens again.
We will keep you informed as to new developments. We have suspended production of Aluminium Paint until our investigation is complete – production of all other AN Paint products continues as usual.
