The recall of 1.5 million bottles of Angry Orange Enzyme Stain Removers by Thrasio due to bacterial contamination will negatively impact Thrasio's brand reputation and sales.

Retail Household Products

Thrasio has issued a recall for approximately 1.5 million bottles of its Angry Orange Enzyme Stain Removers in Fresh Clean Scent and Orange Twist Scent. The recall, announced by the United States — United States Consumer Product Safety Commission, is due to the potential presence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria, which can cause serious infections, particularly in individuals with weakened immune systems, external medical devices, or underlying lung conditions. The affected products were sold nationwide at major retailers including Walmart, Oracle Corporation, Home Depot, Meijer, Staples, and TJX, as well as online through Amazon (company), Chewy, and AngryOrange.com, from March 2019 through December 2025. Consumers are advised to stop using the product immediately, take a picture of it with 'recalled' and their initials, email the photo to productrecall@angryorange.com for a full refund, and then dispose of the product without emptying it. No injuries or illnesses have been reported in connection with the recall so far. Additionally, about 43,700 bottles were sold in Canada.
