Conventional cleaning products contain a cocktail of synthetic chemicals — surfactants, solvents, fragrances, preservatives, and antimicrobials — that are absorbed through skin, inhaled as vapors, and ingested as residues on surfaces. Many are classified as endocrine disruptors, carcinogens, or respiratory sensitizers. The EPA has found indoor air quality is often 2-5x worse than outdoor air, largely due to cleaning products.
Why We Recommend This Product
Branch Basics is the gold standard for non-toxic cleaning. Their EWG Verified status, complete ingredient transparency, and concentrate format (reducing plastic packaging) make them the top choice for chemical-conscious households.
