With Anolyte sanitizer, we offer a non-alcohol, water-based disinfectant that’s effective at killing 99.9 percent of common tested germs on the skin without using alcohol, so you and your family can rest a little easier. It is important to note that alcohol-based hand sanitizers are considered safe to use in moderation. The problem is that alcohol-based hand sanitizers can lead to dry skin, infection, and even alcohol poisoning. Plus, they have been deemed a fire hazard by some regulatory authorities.
Most liquid hand sanitizers contain a large amount of ethyl or isopropyl alcohol. Therefore, they should be stored out of your child’s reach and only used with adult supervision. If ingested, alcohol toxicity can even lead to alcohol poisoning. According to the USA Centre for Disease Control (CDC) from 2011 to 2015, U.S. poison control centers received nearly 85 000 calls about alcohol-based hand sanitizer exposures among children.

Most hand sanitizers on the market contain a high volume of alcohol, enough to be considered a fire hazard. In fact, alcohol-based hand sanitizers are classified as Class I Flammable Liquid substances in the USA, which means they have a flashpoint of less than 37 °C (100 degrees Fahrenheit). Occupational Health and Safety Authorities has got specific guidelines regarding the storage and use of these flammable liquids.
