Plain-English summary

Porter World Trade Inc. is recalling approximately 9,700 Ron Jon Surf Shop Sippy Cups. The recall is due to violations of federal bans on lead content and specific phthalates. The plastic characters on the cups contain levels of lead and regulated phthalates that exceed these federal prohibitions.

The recalled products are 13.5-ounce sippy cups with main bodies in orange, blue, pink, or green. They feature a rubber-like grip with images of sea creatures and the "RON JON SURF SHOP" design. The cups were sold for about $7 at Ron Jon Surf Shops in Florida, South Carolina, and New Jersey, as well as at the Stellarbay store in Tampa International Airport, from May 2014 through March 2020.

Lead and banned phthalates are toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health issues. No injuries have been reported. Consumers should immediately take the recalled sippy cups away from children and contact Porter World Trade for instructions on how to return the product for a full refund.
