Alliance Chemical · Recalled April 30, 2026 · Children's Products
Data source: U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) Last verified: May 1, 2026
Product Description
This recall involves the bottles of 1-K Kerosene Heater Fuel. The bottles come in transparent plastic containers with white caps and have a multicolor label with "KEROSENE" in all capital white lettering and "1-K HEATER FUEL" in similar lettering. The label only has a single front panel and contains warnings and distributor information.
Hazard
The pre-filled fuel containers violate the mandatory safety standards for portable fuel containers because they lack flame mitigation devices required under the Portable Fuel Container Safety Act, posing a deadly risk of flash fire. In addition, the Children's Gasoline Burn Prevention Act requires all closures on portable kerosene fuel containers to be child-resistant. The container is not child-resistant, posing a risk of burn and poisoning to children.
Reported Injuries
No injuries have been reported as of the recall date.
What You Should Do
Consumers should stop using the recalled fuel containers immediately, place them out of reach of children and contact Alliance Chemical for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to provide a dated photo of the product and dispose of the fuel following local hazardous waste procedures. Note: Kerosene fuel is hazardous. Fuel containers should be disposed of or recycled by following local hazardous waste procedures.
