Hazard: The product contains an insufficient amount of ethanol (measured value: 43,3 % by weight). Consequently, it does not kill bacteria or viruses, which could then reach the user, increasing the risk of infection. Moreover, the presence of alcohols is not accompanied by the appropriate hazard pictograms and warnings. Users have therefore no information on the toxicity and flammability of the product, which in the presence of an ignition source, could lead to a fire.

What is this? This is hand gel made in Portugal. It has too little alcohol in it to kill germs.
What's happening? The gel may not stop infections. It also does not show fire warnings, so it could catch fire easily.
Does this affect me? If you use this gel in France, you might get sick or start a fire.
What should I do? Stop using it now. Ask your pharmacist or doctor for safe hand gel.
