Methanol Institute's Commitment to Bootleg Alcohol Prevention

The Methanol Institute (MI) and our members commit significant resources to ensuring safe use and handling of methanol throughout the global supply chain. The illegal manufacturing and distribution of contaminated alcoholic beverages can lead to injury and loss of life. This is largely preventable through proper enforcement, consumer education, and medical training.

In 2012, MI established educational programs aimed at preventing methanol poisoning from production, consumption, and distribution of illegal and bootleg (counterfeit or illicit) alcoholic beverages. Over the years MI expanded these programs and is now working with global partners in at-risk markets worldwide to protect consumers from adulterated alcoholic beverages.
