MADE SAFE

Did you know that there are over 85,000 chemicals on the market today? Of which less than 10% have been tested for safety? MADE SAFE, the third certification in this series, goes above and beyond to screen thousands of ingredients that are on the market today using “…modeling, predictive analysis and available science for bioaccumulation (builds up in our bodies), persistence (builds up in the environment), and for aquatic toxicity.”

A few things that set MADE SAFE apart:

• They will work with companies during formulation to make sure they are safe for consumers.

• Through their screening process, they take the “ingredients are harmful until proven safe” approach and screen what they call secondary toxins.

• You can easily view their Hazard List to learn more about what is not included in their certified products. This is a great tool to learn about toxic ingredients for yourself! I love this tool.

• MADE SAFE products include apparel, baby, bedding, cosmetics, household and feminine care. You can search their database HERE.

• Be sure to follow them on Instagram because it is a wealth of information.
