co-brand message here
|
These are our standards that ensure everything we introduce to you has
the safety of your family and the health of our planet in mind. Our
Promise to you is the general philosophy that guides all of our
decision making here at EcoMom® These are our promises that make
our brand one you can inherently trust, and because it's such a large
task, we enlist the help of Healthy Child Healthy World by using the
requirements set forth by them as our model.
This is our grandest
responsibility, and we may not be able to offer products in every
category. Good-enough will not do. However, it is also essential to
remember how far we have come in this movement and how far we still
have to go to guarantee that all the products to which we have access
be safe for our children and the environment. Some of the names of the
chemicals we want to avoid are long and unfamiliar, so we want to offer
assistance in understanding what they actually mean when they appear in
a product, or why it's best to stay away.
Products must:
- Not be chronically toxic - including not carcinogenic, not reproductive toxic, not endocrine disrupting, not neurotoxic, and not teratogenic
- Not contain toxic dyes

"Most people want to consider the health and environmental effects of the products they buy, but lack the time to research high-quality, non-toxic options." Healthy Child Healthy World
