Hazard

The product contains an insufficient amount of ethanol (measured values: 11% by volume). Consequently, it does not kill bacteria or viruses, which could then reach the user, increasing the risk of infection. Moreover, the product contains methanol (measured value: 26% by weight), which is acutely toxic to the central nervous system and to the eyes. Furthermore, the required hazard pictograms and warnings are missing. Users have therefore no information on the toxicity and flammability of the product. The packaging is not fitted with child-resistant fastening. Ingestion or contact with methanol may lead to blindness and death. The product does not comply with the Biocidal Products Regulation.
