Washing and cleaning agents
Good reasons to think about the certification of your products
People with highly sensitive and allergy-prone skin are dependent on cleaning agents and detergents without allergy triggers such as perfume and dyes. They also need clear and concise information and count on products that take their special requirements into account and improve their quality of life.
The requirements for obtaining the Allergy Seal of Quality
For detergents and cleaning agents (chemical products) to be certified, they must contain the 81 potentially allergenic substances only in very limited quantities. In addition to the above-mentioned basic requirement, the claims "without perfume/without fragrances", "without colorants" as well as "without enzymes" are checked if these claims are advertised or used on the packaging.
