Zan International Trading Recalls Lotus Joy Sweet Birch Essential Oil Due to Poisoning Risk

What Happened

Zan International Trading has announced a recall of Lotus Joy Organic Sweet Birch Essential Oil bottles because the product contains methyl salicylate, which requires child-resistant packaging under the Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA). The current bottles are not child-resistant, posing a risk of serious injury or death if the contents are swallowed by young children. No injuries have been reported to date.

Which Products Are Affected

This recall involves approximately 470 units of Lotus Joy Organic Sweet Birch Essential Oil.

• Product Details: 0.34 fluid ounce amber bottles with a black cap and a separate glass dropper with a black cap.
• Labeling: The white label on the bottle features orange and black text with “LotusJoy,” “organic,” “sweet birch,” “essential oil,” and “betula lenta” on the front.
• Packaging: The product was sold in a blue box with matching orange and black lettering.
• Sales Information: The items were sold online at Amazon.com from August 2025 through November 2025 for approximately $13.

What You Should Do

Consumers should immediately secure the recalled essential oil in a location out of the sight and reach of children. To receive a full refund, consumers are instructed to pour the contents of the bottle into the trash, take a photo of the bottle in the trash, and email the photo to Zan International Trading at zantradellc@hotmail.com.

For more information, consumers can contact Zan International Trading toll-free at 888-5739-288 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday, or via email at zantradellc@hotmail.com.

Why This Matters

Substances containing methyl salicylate must be stored in child-resistant packaging to prevent accidental ingestion. The failure to meet these safety standards creates a significant poisoning risk that can lead to life-threatening consequences for young children.
