How our testing works

Transparency should be something you can verify, not just something we say. So, we send our finished products to independent labs, the kind accredited to recognized international testing standards, and we publish what they find. They are not us, and they have no stake in the result.

When a report says, "none detected," it means the substance was below the level the lab's instruments can measure. That is not the same as a flat zero, and we would rather tell you what the science actually says than round it into a slogan. You will see the threshold on every result, so you know how sensitive the test was.

We test finished product, we publish the reports, and we retest as we go. This program is expanding across every product line, and each report names the lab that ran it, so this page will keep growing.

This program is growing

We test as fast as we responsibly can. Independent lab testing is expensive and takes time, so we roll it out in waves, starting with the products you use most and the contaminants that matter most. We would rather test fewer things properly than put a badge on everything. We add results here as they come back, and every report names the lab that ran it.

This program is just getting started. So far, we have had testing done for our Laundry Detergent and our Bamboo Paper Products. If you would like to give us feedback about an ingredient you would like us to test for or a product that you would like to see us prioritize, please let us know by submitting a request.
