Haltom City, Texas Bulk Sanitizer Disposal, Recycling and Ethanol Recover Services

Leading Haltom City Transporter for Bulk, Out-of-date Alcohol Based Sanitizer Gels and Liquids

Many of the hand-sanitizing liquids available today are gels that are 60-95% ethyl or isopropyl alcohol–classifying them as Class 3 Flammable Liquids.

Large quantities of hand sanitizers cannot be stored in Haltom City office buildings, per OSHA regulations and any amounts over 25 gallons must be properly stored in flammable-liquid storage cabinets.

Hand Sanitizers Containing Methanol or 1-Propanol

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cited quite a few companies and manufacturering companies for making and selling hand sanitizers that have the following ingredientsmethanol or 1-propanol, both of which are toxic to human health and neither are approved for hand-washing by the EPA:

• Ethanol contained in spirits used for drinking, methanol commonly used to make fuels, solvents and antifreeze. Referred to as “wood alcohol” or “methyl alcohol”, methanol is colorless, highly flammable and extremely poisonous if consumed.
• Used in industry, some cosmetics and antiseptics, 1-Propanol is used as a multi-purpose solvent. It’s highly flammable, harmful if congested and can damage your eyes. Respiratory irritation and central nervous system issues can result from inhalation.

The recalled sanitizers listed here were falsely labeled as containing only ethyl alcohol. If you purchased large amounts of any recalled sanitizer listed please get in touch with our Haltom City hazardous waste disposal office right away to schedule proper transportation and disposal.
