Issue

The recalled products do not meet the labelling requirements for consumer chemical products required by the Consumer Chemicals and Containers Regulations, 2001 under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act.

Some of the products lack the required precautionary labelling required for products that could spontaneously combust under reasonably foreseeable conditions of use. Products identified as spontaneously combustible may cause rags and cloths used with the product to burn on their own. This lack of labelling information could result in unintentional exposure to the product and lead to serious illness, injury or death.

As of December 7, 2021, the company has received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada.

What you should do

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled products and safely dispose of them in accordance with municipal hazardous waste requirements.

For more information, consumers may contact Davis International Group, LLC at 901-854-6667 Monday to Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. CDT.

Please note that the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act prohibits recalled products from being redistributed, sold or even given away in Canada.

Health Canada would like to remind Canadians to report any health or safety incidents related to the use of this product or any other consumer product or cosmetic by filling out the Consumer Product Incident Report Form.
