2026-02-18 – A consumer suffered second-degree burns and hair loss after a bottle of Roundfire Premium flammable liquid ignited unexpectedly during routine use, according to a hazard report filed with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) SaferProducts.gov database. The incident, reported on December 31, 2025, involves a fire or burn hazard linked to a warning defect in the product's labeling or instructions. Product DetailsBrand Name: Roundfire Incident OverviewAccording to the CPSC SaferProducts.gov report (ID 5867693, available at https://www.saferproducts.gov/PublicSearch/Detail?ReportId=5867693), the incident occurred on December 31, 2025, when a consumer placed a small amount of Roundfire Premium flammable liquid onto a warm pan. The liquid immediately ignited, producing a flame that shot upward and burned the consumer's face and ignited their hair. The consumer walked to the kitchen sink to extinguish the flames and subsequently sought emergency department treatment for second-degree burns to the face and hair loss due to fire. The consumer reported that the pan surface was only warm at the time the liquid was added—not hot enough to cause ignition under normal circumstances—and that the liquid was not added directly to an open flame. This suggests the product's flash point may be lower than expected for safe use near warm surfaces, raising concerns about the adequacy of warning labels or instructions provided with the product. Safety ConcernsImmediate Dangers: The unexpected ignition of a flammable liquid on a merely warm surface can cause rapid, high-temperature flames capable of inflicting second-degree burns and igniting hair or clothing within seconds, as occurred in this incident. The flame's speed and intensity increase the risk of severe injury before the user can react. Environmental Triggers: The product's flash point—the lowest temperature at which it can vaporize to form an ignitable mixture in air—appears to be low enough that a warm pan (well below typical cooking temperatures) can trigger ignition. This means common kitchen environments pose an unexpected fire risk. Warning Signs: The incident narrative indicates no visible warning signs before ignition; the liquid ignited immediately upon contact with the warm surface. This lack of pre-ignition cues makes the hazard particularly dangerous because users cannot anticipate when a surface temperature becomes dangerous. Who Might Be Affected: Consumers using Roundfire Premium liquid near any warm surface—including stovetops, ovens, grills, or even heaters—are at risk. Bystanders nearby, such as children or family members, may also be exposed to flame flashes. What Our Clients SayWhat Consumers Should DoStop Using Immediately: Cease all use of Roundfire Premium flammable liquid until the manufacturer issues clear safety guidance or a recall. Do not use the product near any heat source, including warm pans, stovetops, or ovens. Consumers who have suffered injury or property damage from this product may wish to speak with a product liability attorney to understand their legal options.
