Aug 10. Cda: Orange TKO Industries (Intl) Inc. Product Recall

Nexreg Compliance

From: Health Canada

Health Canada is warning Canadians that a number of different consumer chemical products sold under the brand of Orange TKO Industries (Int’l) Inc. do not carry the mandatory labelling and child-resistant closure as required by the Consumer Chemicals and Containers Regulations, 2001. These products contain a level of D-limonene that can be hazardous, especially to children, if aspiration occurs.

D-limonene is extracted from citrus fruit (such as orange peel), and is commonly used as an ingredient in cleaners and other household chemical products to provide a citrus smell. Aspiration occurs when the product is coughed up or vomited after being ingested.  This coughing/vomiting causes small particles of the product to travel into the lungs and may result in severe health effects including pulmonary injury, chemical pneumonia or death.

Consumers who have purchased any of the products identified in this advisory should immediately stop using these products and dispose of them in accordance with municipal hazardous waste guidelines.
