“I just want all of our customers to know that we take this very seriously and will rebuild from here.”
As parents, our intentions with the Cupkin cups were to be lead-free from the beginning,” Max Kang, one of the co-founders of Cupkin, said in an emailed statement to The Associated Press. To receive a refund, consumers can submit photographs of the cups showing their destruction and fill out a form on Cupkin's website. Soojimus and Amazon will be directly contacting all known purchasers of the recalled Cupkin cups, the CPSC said Thursday. “However, no matter the cost.we are going to be as transparent and proactive as possible to resolve this ASAP.” “Learning that our manufacturing partner and not one, but two CPSC-accredited labs let us down is a heavy set back both financially and emotionally,” Cupkin continued. “When we initially developed these cups, our manufacturing partner confirmed multiple times that absolutely no lead was used in any part of our production process,” Cupkin's message read, adding that the cups were also tested by two separate third-party labs accredited by the CPSC. Lead was not detected during the products' initial development, the brand added. In a response to the recall on its website, Cupkin noted that it initiated the voluntary recall after receiving consumer feedback and conducting additional testing.
No illnesses or injuries related to the recall have been reported to date.Īccording to Cupkin, liquid in the now-recalled cups is “not exposed to lead due to the double walled construction.” The exposure to lead can occur if the cup bottoms are mistreated, the brand said.
