New Regulations Regarding The Supply Of Acids ....

Since the 1st of October 2023 new rules and regulations have gone live regarding The Supply of Explosives, Precursors and Poisons.

For Sterling Products and other similar suppliers of cleaning products this primarily affects the acid based wheel cleaning products. 

You will have unfortunately seen many cases in the press and media even recently where people have been badly hurt due to "acid attacks". This includes severe disfigurment and even permanent loss of sight. This new legislation is aimed at trying to prevent that.

For more information see our dedicated information page here.

This affects both private and business users and will need us to get some information from people/businesses who purchase these types of products from us. There are severe Statutory legal penalties involved for both the supplier and user so your assistance with completing this information will help us avoid any future restrictions on supply.
