However, we’re currently unable to load essential oils into our dry tablets and formulations. We’ve received requests for essential oils instead of synthetic fragrances. However, since actual eucalyptus contains known allergens, we used other natural ingredients to recreate a similar “eucalyptus” scent. For example, our Bathroom cleaner scent is Eucalyptus Mint. Synthetic ingredients were used when the natural source is known to have allergens. The fragrance is formulated to avoid known allergens which is why our fragrances are a blend of natural and synthetic ingredients. For these products, we developed our fragrances without using harmful ingredients. However, our Multi-Surface cleaner, Bathroom cleaner, and Hand Soap do contain fragrance. You can read more about Prop 65 here.Ĭurrently, our fragrance-free products include our Glass + Mirror cleaner, Powder Dish Soap, Dishwasher Tablets, and Laundry Tablets.

Prop 65 requires the state to maintain and update a list of chemicals known to the state to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity. Additionally, they are safe synthetic fragrances and by going synthetic, we’re able to exclude Prop 65 banned ingredients that are sometimes found in natural fragrances. While most fragrance facilities do not disclose their specific ingredients list for proprietary reasons, Cradle to Cradle evaluated our fragrances and their manufacturers, and our formulation received the Platinum Material Health Certificate. You can also find more information on our Platinum Material Health Certificate for our Dishwasher Tablets and Laundry Tablets on Cradle to Cradle’s Instagram. You can read more about our Platinum Material Health Certificate from Cradle to Cradle for our Cleaning Sprays here and our Hand Soap here. The certificate indicates that we “go beyond restricted substances to encourage healthier and safer materials in packaging and cleaning solutions optimized for human and environmental health”. These ingredients do go through extreme vetting along with all of our ingredients through our partnership with Cradle to Cradle where we have Platinum level Material Health Certificates (which is their highest material health rating for people and the planet) for our Dishwasher Tablets, Cleaning Sprays, Laundry Tablets and Foaming Hand Soap. We accept ingredients derived from palm oil when the suppliers are able to produce documentation or evidence that the palm oil is RSPO certified but if they cannot, we will change to suppliers who can. How Do We Source Palm Oil For Our Products? In these cases, we selectively use other naturally derived plant oils for our surfactant ingredients, including palm oils. We prefer to use coconut derived ingredients, but there are unfortunately many times when an efficacious, cost effective, and compatible formulation solution only exists from a non-coconut derived source.

We use SLS in our Dish products and Cleaning Sprays because it is an effective surfactant that helps break up dirt and grime. Our Foaming Hand Soap, Multi-Surface cleaner, and Laundry Tablets do not but may have trace amounts. Our Bathroom cleaner, Glass + Mirror cleaner, Powder Dish Soap and Dishwasher Tablets do contain SLS as an ingredient. We use SLS that is derived from renewable carbon plant-derived materials. By definition, a surfactant is a substance that reduces the surface tension between two things (for example stains and water), making it a very important ingredient for cleaning products. SLS or sodium lauryl sulfate is an ingredient that can have a variety of uses, but in cleaning products, it’s often used to break up dirt and grime away from the material it’s intended to clean as it’s a surfactant.
