FAQ

What is the active ingredient in PURELL?
Answer:

The active ingredient in PURELL is ethyl alcohol - sometimes referred to as "mother nature's disenfectant." Ethyl alcohol is classified by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a Category I active ingredient, which means it's generally recognized as safe and effective when used as directed.

When should PURELL be used?
Answer:

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), alcohol-based hand sanitizers can be used when hands are not visibly soiled. If hands are visibly soiled, use soap and water.

What is MRSA?
Answer:
MRSA is the acronym for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. It is a type of staph infection that is resistant to antibiotics such as methicillin, penicillin and amoxicillin. Because MRSA can be transferred via person to person contact, automotive technicians, with the tendency to get cuts and scrapes on the job, are susceptable to the transmission of MRSA.
