Tracking of ethyl alcohol use is required under the Excise Act, 2001

丁香园AV receives a 99% remission of excise tax on the purchases of ethyl alcohol for scientific research and/or teaching purposes. As a registered user, 丁香园AV pays only a special duty rate of $0.12 per litre of ethyl alcohol. If discrepancies occur that cannot be accounted for, a penalty could be assessed at the full excise duty rate of $11.696 per litre.

It is the responsibility of each staff member or researcher that purchases ethyl alcohol to ensure that accurate records are returned to Science Stores to meet audit requirements for the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).

Staff and researchers must follow the guidelines outlined below when purchasing, receiving and using ethyl alcohol.

• Complete the Science Stores Ethyl Alcohol Record Sheet at the Science Stores front counter when purchasing ethyl alcohol.
• Take a Laboratory Ethyl Alcohol (Ethanol) Record Sheet for each 4 L bottle of ethanol purchased.
• Complete the log of ethanol usage in the laboratory, and when a 4 L container is completely used, return the Record Sheet to Science Stores.
• Science Stores will maintain the records of usage on file for current plus six years.

Coats are available in a variety of materials and colours to suit your needs.

Users that are in the rental program will be able to draw from a float, or pool of lab coats, so that users can simply exchange their coat for another when they drop off their coat to stores to launder their current one. 

Coats that are lab owned, specialty coats, i.e. (coloured poly blend, Nomex, etc), can be dropped at Science Stores for washing, and then picked up after they have been washed and returned back by Cintas, usually the following week (no swapping is available as with the  rentals because we cannot  sustain a float supply).

For lab coat pricing, email David Lee (davidl@sfu.ca)
