Chemboys Recalls DIYChemicals Potassium and Sodium Hydroxide Products Due to Failure to Meet Child-Resistant Packaging Requirement and Violation of FHSA Labeling Requirement (Recall Alert)

Hazard

The products contain potassium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide which must be in child resistant packaging as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA). The packaging of the products is not child resistant, posing a risk of chemical burns and irritation to the skin and eyes. In addition, the label on the product violates the Federal Hazardous Substances Act (FHSA) by not including mandatory information on the packaging.

What to do

Consumers should immediately store the recalled products in a safe location out of sight and reach of children. Contact Chemboys to receive free replacement child resistant packaging and a new label. All known purchasers are being contacted directly by the firm.
