Online the company tells you what ingredients are in their various products.
The chart tells you where the product comes from and how it works.

I currently use the all purpose cleaner. It smells nice and clean without triggering my allergies!
ingredient | how it works | what product is it in? |
---|---|---|
alkyl polyglucoside
| The top-secret cleaning ingredient inside our products? Believe it or not, it comes from plants. This plant-based cleaning agent is great at dissolving and removing dirt, oil and grease. | all-purpose cleaner, bathroom cleaner, cleaning wipes, dishwashing liquid, glass cleaner, glass & surface cleaner, toilet bowl cleaner, laundry detergent |
boric acid
| This natural mineral compound works to stabilize the natural cleaning enzymes that break down protein-based stains, such as grass, blood and chocolate. The result? Cleaner clothes done naturally. | laundry detergent |
calcium chloride
| This mineral-based ingredient stabilizes natural cleaning enzymes and prevents them from breaking down. | laundry detergent |
citric acid
| Ever wonder why hard water doesn’t lather well? It’s the minerals! This corn-based ingredient reduces minerals to soften hard water and help our natural cleaning ingredients work harder. | dishwashing liquid, toilet bowl cleaner, bathroom cleaner, cleaning wipes |
colorant
| Like any natural ingredient, natural dyes do have a shelf life. That’s why we add a very small amount of synthetic colorant (less than 0.1%) to our products for a bit of color. | all-purpose cleaner, dishwashing liquid, toilet bowl cleaner, glass cleaner, laundry detergent |
enzymes
| Grass, food, blood? No problem! The natural soil remover in our laundry products attacks protein-and starch-based stains to get your clothes fresh and stain-free — naturally! | laundry detergent |
ethanol
| Streaks begone! This corn-based alcohol allows our products to dry quickly for a streak-free shine. | all-purpose cleaner, dishwashing liquid, cleaning wipes, glass & surface cleaner, glass cleaner |
fragrance with essential oils
| Natural fragrances can go bad over time, which is why our products contain synthetic fragrances with oils extracted from plants that leave behind a clean, fresh scent. | all-purpose cleaner, bathroom cleaner, chlorine-free bleach, cleaning wipes, dishwashing liquid, glass cleaner, glass & surface cleaner, toilet bowl cleaner, laundry detergent |
glycerine
| This plant-based ingredient prevents streaking and ensures that our products are effective even when the temperature drops. | cleaning wipes, glass & surface cleaner, laundry detergent, dishwashing liquid |
hydrogen peroxide
| Meet nature’s stain remover! This oxygen-based bleaching agent is like a water molecule plus an extra oxygen atom. It does not contain chlorine bleach and is safe for use on colored fabrics. | chlorine-free bleach |
lactic acid
| The main culprit behind those pesky rings in your toilet bowl? Hard water. This corn-based compound softens hard water, which helps our cleaning ingredients work more effectively for a toilet that’s absolutely spotless. | toilet bowl cleaner |
lauramine oxide
| This plant-based cleaning ingredient dissolves and removes dirt, oil and grease — and produces rich suds for sparkling-clean dishes. | dishwashing liquid |
oleic acid
| This plant-based cleaning ingredient prevents excessive foaming, which is what makes our laundry detergent great for high-efficiency (HE) washing machines. Remember: just a little can go a long way! | laundry detergent |
potassium carbonate
| This mineral-based ingredient increases the pH levels in our products for improved cleaning performance. | all-purpose cleaner |
potassium citrate
| Because natural cleaning ingredients can degrade over time, we use this plant-based buffer to balance pH levels and prevent our stain-fighting ingredients from breaking down. | all-purpose cleaner |
preservative
| Like anything that’s natural, the natural cleaning ingredients in our products can go bad over time. That’s why we add a small amount of preservative (less than 0.5%) to keep our products fresh and effective. | all-purpose cleaner, dishwashing liquid, cleaning wipes, laundry detergent |
silicone antifoaming agent
| Bubbles are great when you’re doing the dishes, but not so helpful when you’re pretreating a stain or wiping up a sticky spill. That’s why a couple of our products contain an antifoaming agent that prevents streaks and unwanted residue. | cleaning wipes |
sodium carbonate
| This mineral-based ingredient (known in the olden days as washing soda) softens hard water, which helps our cleaning ingredients work even harder. | glass & surface cleaner, glass cleaner, oxi stain remover |
sodium chloride
| So what is sodium chloride? It’s just a fancy name for table salt! It prevents cleaning ingredients from breaking down and increases the viscosity (or thickness) of our dishwashing liquid. | dishwashing liquid |
sodium gluconate
| Because natural cleaning ingredients can degrade over time, we use this corn-based buffer to balance pH levels and prevent our stain-fighting ingredients from breaking down. | laundry detergent |
sodium hydroxide
| This mineral-based ingredient increases the pH levels in our products for improved cleaning performance. | glass cleaner, laundry detergent |
sodium lauryl sulfate
| Derived from plants, this powerful cleaning ingredient works to dissolve and remove dirt, oil and grease. | dishwashing liquid, laundry detergent |
sodium octyl sulfate
| This plant-based cleaning ingredient helps dissolve and remove dirt, oil and grease. | glass cleaner, laundry detergent |
sodium percarbonate
| This oxygen-based bleaching agent releases hydrogen peroxide as it dissolves in water. This makes it tough on dirt and stains and easy on colors*.
*When used as directed.
| oxi stain remover |
substrate
| Our cleaning wipes are made from 100% wood-based fibers, which is also what makes them compostable. Just throw them in the green bin when you’re done! | cleaning wipes |
xanthan gum
| This plant-based thickener increases product viscosity, which means that our toilet bowl cleaner will cling to stains instead of running down the sides. | toilet bowl clean |
