The American Lung Association warns about the harmful chemicals found in most cleaning products, including products that are advertised as “GREEN” & “ALL NATURAL”. Some products also release dangerous volatile organic compounds. These harmful chemicals can irritate the eyes, the throat & the skin, as well as travel through the bloodstream & harm your organs. 

The ALA recommends reading all products labels, cleaning in well ventilated spaces & staying away from air fresheners altogether. It is also recommend to wear gloves when cleaning.

 Some natural ingredients, especially in air fresheners, can react with high levels of ozone & form carcinogens & dangerous particles. 

We choose brands that keep this information in mind to help you choose safe cleaning brands because there aren’t many.
