Samsonite, the world's largest branded luggage maker, is fighting claims its suitcase handles contain cancer-causing materials.?
The world's largest branded luggage manufacturer says three of its brands are "completely safe" ? even though an Asian consumer watchdog says handles on the suitcase models contain known carcinogens.
Choice Magazine, a monthly published by the Hong Kong Consumer Council, reported in its June edition that Tokyo Chic, Cubelite and Westlake lines of Samsonite luggage contain materials that could cause cancer. Stock in Samsonite International SA immediately fell 16 percent in Hong Kong trading.
Based in Mansfield, Mass., Samsonite on Friday issued a statement saying it had sent samples to an independent laboratory, and the models are safe for use. Bloomberg News reported the exchange, Friday.
