MADE SAFE® screens ingredients against their Ingredient Database of known harmful chemicals, which is made up of thousands of chemicals found on scientifically authoritative lists from organizations and agencies around the world.

This database screens for thousands of ingredients from authoritative “red lists” from around the world, to ensure that no ingredient is a known: behavioral toxin, carcinogen, developmental toxin, endocrine disruptor, flame retardant, GMO, heavy metal, neurotoxin, high risk pesticide, reproductive toxin, toxic solvent or harmful VOC along with nanoparticles and synthetic biology.

They then go above and beyond to examine ingredients for bioaccumulation, persistence, and general and aquatic toxicity.

The MADE SAFE®(Made With Safe Ingredients™) Screening Process to determine that all raw ingredients used to make a given product are deemed safe and have been vetted by an independent third party to ensure that none of the stated ingredients are known to cause human health harm.
