Fabuloso issues a voluntary recall of some of its all-purpose cleaners due to the risk of bacteria

LOS ANGELES– The Fabuloso brand has issued a voluntary recall on nearly 5 million bottles of its all-purpose cleaners due to the risk of bacterial growth in these products.

The company announced on Wednesday that a preservative “was not added at the levels intended during manufacture,” creating a risk that the recalled products may contain Pseudomonas species bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas fluorescens, which are environmental organisms widely present in soil and water.

Those most at risk are those with weakened immune systems, external medical devices or underlying lung conditions, the company said.

The bacteria can enter the body through the eyes, through a tear in the skin or by inhalation.

The recall affects 4.9 million bottles produced from December 14, 2022 to January 23, 2023.

Check the 12-digit UPC number next to the barcode. Affected lots will have a manufacturing code with the first eight digits beginning with 2348US78 through 2365US78 and 3001US78 through 3023US78.
