Within the same product category, the database holds 6 closely related recalls, of which 1 were also issued by CPSC. That clustering is a signal — repeated actions in a narrow category often indicate a systemic quality-control issue, a supplier-wide contamination, or a design defect that has propagated across product lines.

Product 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.

Reason for Recall

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".

Remedy

Consumers should immediately remove the nozzle applicator from the recalled Safe & Green 32 oz. Fuel bottle and reinstall the child-resistant closure that was included with the product's original packaging. If the child-resistant closure is not readily available, consumers should immediately secure the recalled Safe & Green 32 oz. fuel bottle out of the sight and reach of children. Consumers should contact Firefly Fuel for a free corrected label to put on the bottle and a free replacement child-resistant lid, if the original is missing.
