IKEA warns: Mixing spatula back due to health concerns!

On June 4, 2025, IKEA announced an important recall for the IKEA 365+ HJÄLTE mixing spatula. The affected products, listed under item number 401-494-62, have a date stamp of 2445. These putties were sold after November 2024 and are subject to a recall because local testing detected non-compliant migration of primary aromatic amines (PAA) above the allowable limit. This was done on the instructions of the Austrian Food Safety Authority, which underlines the urgent need for this recall.

Customers who own these mixing spatulas are urged to stop using them immediately and contact IKEA directly. To resolve the issue, IKEA is offering the option to return the affected products to any IKEA store, without requiring proof of purchase. Customers will receive either a refund of the purchase price or a compliant replacement product.

Important customer information

In addition to the information above, IKEA encourages customers to spread the word about the recall as widely as possible. This is particularly important for people who have given away, borrowed or sold the mixing spatula. A full refund is offered and returns are very straightforward.

The recall measure was supported not only by the Austrian but also the Belgian food authorities, which underlines the urgency and relevance of the warning. Further information is available on the IKEA website, including detailed return steps and contact details. In Belgium, customers can use the free phone number 0800 388 09.

In addition, the lebensmittelwarning.de portal has offered special services to support the dissemination of information. There is a wealth of information available there, including in sign language, to ensure all consumers receive the information they need. Navigation on the website and app is explained, and there is video content for users that can help educate them about food warnings.

Customers can also find out more by calling the free IKEA number 0800/081 061. IKEA apologizes for the inconvenience this recall may cause and emphasizes the safety and health of its customers as its top priority.
