Product name | Firefly Safe & Green 32 oz. Fuel Bottles | |
Description | This recall involves the Firefly Safe & Green 32 oz. bottles. The fuel comes in a transparent bottle with a white cap and nozzle applicator. The fuel bears the 'Firefly' brand, 'Safe & Green' in large green font, followed by 'The One Fuel.' The label also states 'Non-Toxic', 'Readily Biodegradable', 'Odorless', 'Bright Flame' and 'Certified Kosher' on the front of the bottle. The rear of the bottle contains hazard labeling and the firm's business address. | |
Problem | The recalled Safe & Green 32 oz. fuel bottles contain hydrocarbons, which must be in child-resistant packaging, as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. The product includes a nozzle applicator which is not child-resistant, violating the mandatory standard. When the applicator is used instead of the child-resistant closure, it poses a deadly poisoning hazard to young children. Hydrocarbons can get into the lungs, causing chemical pneumonia and pulmonary damage, which can be fatal. In addition, the torch fuel violates the Federal Hazardous Substances Act because it is incorrectly labeled as 'Non-Toxic'. | |
Distribution | Amazon.com, Walmart.com and at www.fireflyfuel.com for about $20. | |
