Health Canada Recalls Klean Strip Denatured Alcohol Fuel

Health Canada has recalled Klean Strip Denatured Alcohol Fuel sold by NelsonLife on Amazon.ca because the product does not meet the labelling requirements of the Consumer Chemicals and Containers Regulations, 2001. Consumers who purchased the product between August 2026 and October 2026 are being contacted directly and refunded.

Why it matters

The product's labelling does not meet federal requirements, so the recall is intended to remove it from circulation and protect consumers who may have it at home. Consumers are instructed to stop using the product and dispose of it according to municipal hazardous waste guidelines.

The recall was issued under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act and references labelling rules set in the Consumer Chemicals and Containers Regulations, 2001. The notice does not disclose the number of units sold or whether any incidents have been reported.
