Overview

  • IKEA initiated the recall on June 5, 2025, for the 365+ HJÄLTE Rührspachtel (article no. 401.494.62, date stamp 2445) after Belgian tests detected excessive primary aromatic amines.
  • Only units sold after November 2024 are affected and customers are advised to stop using the spatula immediately.
  • Customers can return the product to any IKEA store for a full refund without needing to present a purchase receipt.
  • Primary aromatic amines are regulated in the EU due to suspected carcinogenic risks and strict migration limits for food-contact materials.
  • IKEA has set up a customer service hotline at +49 800 2255453 and urges customers to inform anyone who may have received the spatula.
