Emollients are necessary to treat skin conditions but please be aware of the fire risk from these products.

Emollient creams are vitally important to people who suffer from chronic skin conditions, however they can be a fire risk. The creams can transfer from the skin onto clothing, bedding and dressings which can easily catch fire from a naked flame.

If you use, or you care for someone who needs emollient creams, lotions or gels, you can help keep them safe by reducing the related fire risks.

➡️Never smoke in bed
➡️Do not smoke if there is any chance your clothing or dressings could be contaminated with these products
➡️Do not cook with gas or electric hobs, if there is any chance your clothing or dressings could be contaminated
➡️Do not sit too close to any open fires, gas fires or halogen heaters
➡️Wash your clothing and bedding frequently at the highest temperature recommended by the fabric care instructions
