Encon Safety Products Co. is recalling approximately 7,677 bags of Aquarion Preserved Cartridges (AQ 120 GFEW), which are used in emergency eyewash stations. The recall was initiated due to deviations from Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) requirements, which are standards that ensure products are made safely and correctly. Each package contains two 3.7-gallon cartridges with various lot numbers and expiration dates ranging from 2026 to 2028. If you have these products, you should contact the manufacturer or your distributor to arrange for their return.
The failure to follow required manufacturing practices can lead to products that are not sterile or do not meet quality specifications. In an emergency eyewash situation, using a product with quality deviations could potentially lead to infection or further eye irritation rather than providing safe relief.
