MADE SAFE Nontoxic Certified
A product must not be with ingredients harmful to one's health
Purpose
Our goal is to change the way products are made in this country to ultimately eliminate the use of toxic chemicals altogether. We make it easy for people to find and buy products made without known toxic chemicals, give companies a road map for making safe products, and make it easy for retailers to select products that aren’t known to cause harm.
Applied Standards
Made Safe Screens for ingredients known for behavioral toxins, carcinogens, developmental toxins, endocrine disruptors, fire retardants, heavy metals, neurotoxins, high risk pesticides, reproductive toxins, toxic solvents, and harmful vocs.
Qualifications/Disclosures
There are certain products where the use case is imperative to consider. That is why we look at in what capacity a shopper interacts with and uses a product, per the manufacturer’s guidelines, so that we can assess the issues unique to each and every product. Unfortunately there are times where we find that manufacturing processes and ingredient practices haven’t caught up with Made Safe’s stringent standards and where there is no safer available substitution for the function of a certain ingredient. For example, if there is a governmental mandate, rule or guideline, we may have to defer to that allowance and make a “use case exception."
