How scores are calculated
Materials (40%): How plastic-free the product is — raw materials, construction, and coatings.
Packaging (20%): Is the product packaged in plastic? Is it recyclable?
Transparency (20%): Does the brand disclose ingredients, sourcing, and manufacturing?
Durability (20%): How long does it last? Longer-lasting products reduce plastic waste over time.
This is a rating of this specific product only — not the company. Other products from this brand may score differently.

Conventional cleaning products contain synthetic chemicals including quaternary ammonium compounds, synthetic fragrances (phthalates), chlorine bleach, and 2-butoxyethanol. These are absorbed through skin, inhaled as aerosols, and ingested as residues on cleaned surfaces.
Why We Rated It This Way
Baking soda is one of the safest and most versatile household cleaners. No synthetic chemicals, no synthetic fragrance. Effective for cleaning surfaces, deodorizing, and as a mild abrasive. A fraction of the cost of branded cleaners.
