About methylated spirits
Sometimes referred to as denatured alcohol, this product is essentially a mixture of ethanol and methanol. The methanol is present in a small concentration, but enough to make it undrinkable and poisonous.
Due to its high concentration, this is a highly regulated product in order to avoid its consumption as an alcoholic beverage. All alcoholic drinks are taxed accordingly, but this taxation does not apply to denatured solutions.

For regular customers, we offer the possibility to open an account with us to make your orders easier and faster. If you wish to do so, simply

- In addition, if ingested, methanol is converted to toxic compounds, which are not excreted easily by the body. As a result, denatured alcohol is very dangerous and should not be used for human consumption.
