  4. Gentle Care (Bidco Africa)
  5. Lili (Kenbrands International Company)

The State agency further directed manufacturers of the said brands to discontinue sale and to recall all the substandard hand sanitizers from the market.

“KEBS shall continue to undertake market surveillance and factory inspections. Substandard products found will be seized for destruction at the expense of the owner in addition to any other legal action as provided under the law,” read the statement.

The agency also encouraged the public to be on the lookout for substandard products though the ‘Wajibika Na KEBS’ program that them to report cases.

“To Wajibika, verify whether the S Mark permit on your product is valid by sending the code underneath the S Mark to 20023 (SM#Code) to get product manufacturing details. If the details are different, report to KEBS Toll Free Number 1545,” it stated.
