IKEA has recalled one of their popular travel mugs over fears that they contain high levels of a chemical compound.
The furniture giant is to remove its Troligtvis Travel Mugs from store shelves "due to migration of elevated levels of dibutyl phthalate".
The mugs - which were manufactured in India - were sold in Ireland between October 2019 and this month.
However, there aren't fears of health issues, as they only tend to arise after long exposure to the substance.
A Food Safety Authority of Ireland spokesman said: "IKEA is recalling Troligtvis Travel Mugs listed above due to migration of elevated levels of dibutyl phthalate (DBP). Point-of-sale recall notices will be displayed in stores.
"The implicated mugs were sold between October 2019 and January 2020.
"The recall does not affect the Troligtvis travel mugs marked 'Made in Italy'.
"Health concerns are not expected as they are associated with chronic, life-time exposure to this substance."
The affected batches have article codes marked 504.124.47 and 504.269.20.
