Kmart has recalled Bluey, Paw Patrol and Frozen 2-themed toy sets due to asbestos fears.

The sets contain multiple craft and play components including a sealed sachet of coloured sand, scented dough, markers, and character figurines.

All sets contain a sealed tub of coloured sand.

"The product is being recalled because the sand may contain asbestos, which is a prohibited substance in Australia," the recall notice said.

"The sand in the products may cause a risk to health as asbestos has been detected in some samples after laboratory testing. Importantly, respirable asbestos has not been detected in any of the tested samples.

"The release of respirable asbestos fibres is unlikely to occur in its current state, unless the sand is processed by mechanical means such as crushing or pulverising. 

"The risk that any asbestos found is likely to be airborne or fine enough for inhalation is low."

Families should stop using the products immediately and contact Kmart with proof of purchase for a full refund.

"Do not open the sand tub," the recall notice said.

"If the tub has been removed from the box, place it in a sealed plastic bag."

"For safe disposal advice from the Asbestos and Silica Safety and Eradication Agency, visit the ACCC Product Safety website. 

"Do not place the product in household waste."

Visit the Product Safety Australia website for more information on the recall, including how to identify whether you have one of the affected products.

The sand products are the latest to be pulled from the shelves after a string of recalls.
