In particular they are plastic plates recalled with sales denomination:

What does global migration beyond boundaries mean?
This term refers to the withdrawal of a product from the market due to the possibility that it may constitute a risk to public health or the environment. In particular, the ministry's note refers to exceeding the limits. In the note we read i reasons for withdrawal: “Global migration beyond limits. It does not comply with the legal provisions of articles 3 of the European regulation N.1935/2004 and as a result the withdrawal from the market is imposed if there is health-related risks”.
The note indicates that the product has been withdrawn from the market because its global migration is higher than the permitted limits. This means that the product contains substances that migrate or transfer in quantities greater than those established by European legislation, specifically Article 3 of European Regulation No. 1935/2004. European Regulation No. 1935/2004 concerns i materials and objects intended to come into contact with food. Article 3 states that materials and articles must comply with the basic provisions of the regulation, which include requirements on material safety, migration of substances into food and compliance with good manufacturing practices.
If a product does not comply with these provisions, it may represent a risk to consumer health. Therefore, the Ministry of Health has imposed the withdrawal of the product from the market to avoid potential risks to public health.
