Why it scored this way

Led down by Phenoxyethanol
-1.9

Phenoxyethanol (Preservative) carries the heaviest documented hazard profile in this formula and sets the ceiling for the ingredient score.

Scored as: Produce wash
-3.0

Applied to fruit and vegetables and then rinsed off under running water before anything is eaten. It is not applied to floors, surfaces or the dog.

Rinsed before contact resumes
+1.5

Normal use rinses the formula away before a dog contacts the surface, coat or bowl.

Exact, complete manufacturer ingredient list
0.0

Transparency measures how much of the formula the maker publishes, not how good the formula is. A fully disclosed poor formula still earns full transparency points.

No SDS or technical document on file
0.0

Clean Wise has not located a current safety data sheet or technical sheet for this exact product.

Primary manufacturer source
+2.0

Product data was captured from the manufacturer's own product page rather than a reseller listing.

Certification: not certified
0.0

No relevant independent product certification is on file.

Health evidence notices

Phenoxyethanol

ECHA harmonised classification (CLP Annex VI) classifies Phenoxyethanol as Acute Tox. 4 (oral) / Eye Dam. 1. This identifies a hazard and does not by itself establish the risk from this finished product. Risk depends on concentration, route, frequency, dilution, rinsing, residue and use.

Reduced the formula score by 2.7 of 50 points, weighted by its position in the published ingredient list.
