EPA Safer Choice, Explained
That little logo with a check mark? It's one of the few eco labels run by a US government agency.†
Quick answer: EPA Safer Choice is a voluntary program that reviews every ingredient in a product against health and environmental criteria. Products that pass can use the label.†
What it checks
- Every ingredient, not just the active ones.†
- Performance, so it still cleans.
- Packaging criteria.†
- Full ingredient disclosure.†
How to find products
The EPA keeps a searchable list of certified products on its site.†
It's like a guest list, and everyone on it had their ID checked.
Its limits
| It does | It doesn't |
|---|---|
| Screen ingredients | Rank products against each other |
| Require disclosure | Cover every brand (it's voluntary) |
| Check performance | Mean uncertified products are unsafe |
