Plain-English summary

Nutrilife Plant Products is recalling approximately 11,800 one-gallon bottles of 29% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) liquid oxidizer in the United States, with an additional 3,500 bottles in Canada. The recall involves white plastic bottles with blue/green labels featuring the Nutrilife logo and indented lettering on the caps. These products were sold at plant food and hydroponic stores nationwide from November 2016 through July 2017 for about $33.

The recall is being issued because the bottle caps do not vent properly, which can allow pressure to build up inside the bottle. This pressure buildup can cause the bottle to expand and rupture, posing fire and burn hazards. Nutrilife has received one report of a fire resulting in minor property damage.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bottles. They should contact Nutrilife for safe handling instructions and to receive a free replacement bottle cap or instructions on how to destroy the bottles and receive a full refund.
