What is the danger
The product contains an insufficient amount of ethanol (measured value: ≤ 33.5 %). Consequently, it does not kill bacteria or viruses, which could then reach the user, increasing the risk of infection. Furthermore, the presence of ethanol is not accompanied by the corresponding hazard pictograms and warnings. Users have therefore no information on the flammability of the product, which in the presence of an ignition source, could lead to a fire.
Requirements breached
The product does not comply with the Biocidal Products and the Classification, Labelling and Packaging (CLP) Regulations.
