Why We Trust This Brand
ECOS has been family-run since 1967 and turned down the corporate buyouts that swept up its competitors. The ingredient lists are short and clearly labeled, and many products carry the EPA Safer Choice mark, so we are not just taking the brand's word for it.
Ingredients & Safety
Formulas are built on plant- and coconut-derived surfactants with simple, recognizable ingredients like potassium sorbate and citric acid. They leave out phosphates, chlorine, parabens, dyes, formaldehyde, and optical brighteners.
