October 26, 2018 Health Canada is advising consumers of the risks posed by the potential absence of required hazard symbols and health and safety labelling statements on certain Odie’s wood finishing products. The labels attached to the containers of the four affected products indicate that their contents are spontaneously combustible, but the labels do not display all the hazard symbols and health and safety warnings that must appear on spontaneously combustible products as required by the Consumer Chemicals and Containers Regulations, 2001 under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act . Chemicals classified as spontaneously combustible can cause cloth, rags or other materials used with the products to ignite and to burn on their own if they are stored incorrectly after use. Rags used with such products should be placed in water and/or laid flat to dry and then thrown out once completely dry. The affected products are: Product name UPC Photo Odie’s Wood Butter 851366006027 Odie’s Wax 851366006034 Odie’s Oil – All Wood Surfaces – Extraordinary Finish and Stabilizer 851366006003 Odie’s Oil – Multiple Surfaces – The Universal Finish & Polish 851366006218 Health Canada has learned that the products were available for purchase by consumers in Canada from the importers listed below. Health Canada will update this list if additional importers are identified. Black Forest Wood Co., Calgary, Alberta Atlas Machinery, Toronto, Ontario Approximately 695 units of the affected products have been sold in Canada to date. In July 2018, OCOOW LLC issued a Consumer Product Recall for different products from the same company: Odie’s Solvent-Free Super Penetrating Oil and Odie’s Safer Solvent. This Consumer Product Update is separate from that recall.
