More coloured sand products have been recalled due to asbestos contamination concerns, as the ACT's education department is set to announce whether schools closed on Friday will reopen tomorrow.

Earlier this week, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) issued a national recall notice for several coloured sand products after laboratory testing detected traces of chrysotile asbestos — a type of naturally occurring asbestos.

Kmart and Target have now issued a product safety recall for four additional products:

14-piece Sand Castle Building Set (Batch no: 42975724)

Pink Magic Sand (Batch no: 42304371)

Blue Magic Sand (Batch no: 42304364)

Green Magic Sand (Batch no: 432919650)
