The Lye Guy is recalling about 32,000 units of sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide products sold in 32 oz plastic jars. These products, sold online at TheLyeGuy.com between November 2008 and February 2021, fail to meet child-resistant packaging requirements and lack mandatory safety labeling. Consumers should immediately move these chemicals to a secure location out of reach of children and contact the company for free replacement child-resistant packaging and updated labels.
The packaging is not child-resistant, posing a serious risk of chemical burns and irritation to the skin and eyes if accessed by children. Additionally, the labels omit the mandatory word 'poison' and other critical safety information required by federal law.
Consumers should immediately store the recalled products in a safe location out of sight and reach of children. Contact The Lye Guy for free replacement child resistant packaging and a new label. All known purchasers are being contacted directly by the firm.
