15 Best Safe Natural Cleaning Products For Your Home

Caitlin Choi
Your family’s safety is the top priority and there’s no better way to keep your home safe and clean than with natural cleaning products. Many traditional cleaning solutions are full of harmful chemicals (many of which are too hard to pronounce) and incredibly harsh to use in your home. It is imperative to use healthy, non-toxic and, as far as possible, environmentally friendly cleaning products. “Technology has made dramatic advances in the world of green chemistry over the past 10 to 15 years. It is now possible for environmentally friendly products to match the performance of harsh conventional cleaning products, shares the team at L ‘BEFORE Collective.’ Finding reliable cleaning solutions can be difficult, but we’ve reviewed family-approved products for every corner of your home. These lifesavers will easily become an essential part of your regular home cleaning routine!
What to look for
- James Dudra, the co-founder of Therapy Clean explains: “It is important to understand what is really inside the product used. Look for products that openly list everything their ingredients on the label. At the same time, consumers can consult websites such as the Environmental Working Group as a guide to better understand what these materials are and their safety.”
- According to Kristi Lord and Lindsay Droz, the co-founders of L’AVANT Collective, a visual cue on the outside of the label is the color of the cleaning product. “If the soap or cleaning product is blue, yellow, orange or any other color, that should be the first indication that the product may contain harmful ingredients. The color and dyes are for aesthetic reasons only and do not aid the cleaning performance of the products.”
- What’s not listed is just as important as what is. “Safer cleaning alternatives generally list whether they are free of parabens, phosphates, bleach, phthalates, dyes, and triclosan. These ingredients can be harsh skin irritants, release harmful VOCs, or damage our waterways,” the duo explained.
- “Look for products certified by third-party agencies, as this helps substantiate any ‘green’ claims made on the label. The main agencies are USDA BioPreferred, EPA SaferChoice, and Leaping Bunny,” Dudra advises.
