After Maggi noodles, another product from a multi-national brand has now failed laboratory test.
A sample of Dettol soap, a brand owned by Reckitt Benckiser (India) Limited, has failed laboratory tests.
Along with Dettol soap, 10 other medicines have failed laboratory tests and a notice will soon be sent to them.
According to reports, the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) collected samples from Agra in November last year and subsequently sent them for laboratory tests in Lucknow.
The report was sent to the FDA and Dettol and 10 other medicines failed the tests and were also declared sub-standard.
According to reports, the FDA collected a total of 11 samples of medicines, tinctures and Dettol soap, and all of them were found to be sub-standard.
“The wrapper of the sample of Dettol soap collected by us mentioned its weight to be 125gm,” said Agra drug inspector RC Yadav.

“However, the actual weight in our tests was 117.0470gms.
“Besides, it was bought from the shop of one Santosh Kumar Valmiki who was found to be running the shop without a licence.
“The sample of the soap was found to be sub-standard and also failed our standard laboratory tests.”

The FDA is planning to send notices to these 11 firms.

Meanwhile, FMCG firm RB said it will do a thorough investigation and collaborate with authorities after the UP Food and Drug Administration alleged a lesser weight in its Dettol soap.

The company, earlier known as Reckitt Benckiser said the issue is not about the quality, as was suggested in some reports, but of lesser weight. “We will collaborate with the concerned authorities and do a thorough investigation to understand the alleged difference in the product weight of the sample,” a company spokesperson said.

I thought you are intelligent. Never thought that you will use company’s lines to defend the company/product. https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif

BTW, Nestle also categorically said that they don’t use MSG in the cakes of Maggi. But… https://cdn3.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_lol.gif

This one is for u..

“The wrapper of the sample of Dettol soap bar collected by us mentioned its weight to be 125gm. However, the actual weight in our tests was 117.0470gms. Besides, it was bought from the shop of one Santosh Kumar Valmiki who was found to be running the shop without a licence,” Agra drug inspector RC Yadav was quoted by Business Today.

Not defending by using ccompany’s lines. Moreover i m not a company spokesperson.

Different newspapers have quoted the same comments contradictorily which is quite paradoxical.

Had you read DailyMail’s story on the same incident, it was clearly mentioned that “The sample of the soap was found to be sub-standard and also failed our standard laboratory tests.”

Not defending dettol
But standard laboratory tests include tests related to weight of the product.

May be ! But I am trying to make a point ki aisi reports aane ke baad demand for his products will be on all time high. People will start disbelieving in other products after seeing bad reports one after the other and in between he will try to convince people to buy his company made Patanjali products in the name of Swadeshi products ..

Whats wrong with that? As long as his products stand upto scrutiny… Anyways the consumers will be the judge.
And manufacturers have long followed different standards for products aimed at the Indian market and those that are meant for export.
