This expansion is coming, due to potential asbestos contamination in the products, which is a serious issue, as asbestos is a known carcinogen.

Asbestos is often found near talc, a mineral used in baby powder and other cosmetics, but if talc isn’t thoroughly purified, it can still cause asbestos to come along with it.

The Dynacare Baby Powder products were distributed in multiple states across the U.S., including Alabama, California, Florida, Michigan, Texas, and more, and they were also sold online on Amazon.
