Alcohol

Alcohol Order Form

Non-denatured alcohol is available for research use and is restricted to approved internal customers only. This alcohol is sold under State and Federal regulation and prior approval must be obtained from the Department of Environmental Health and Safety. Ordering alcohol is a two-step process:

  • Place your order in U Market and process it through EFS.
  • Once a purchase order is generated in EFS, complete the alcohol order form and email it to [email protected].

Orders for alcohol will not be filled and delivered until the approval form is received. You must complete a new form each time you order. It is best to order alcohol on its own PO in case the order is held up.

For more information on ordering alcohol, contact U Market Customer Support at 612-624-4878, [email protected].
