Family-Safe Cleaning Products — How to Protect What Matters Most

Family-Safe Cleaning Products — How to Protect What Matters Most

🏠 Because Every Home Deserves to Feel Safe


Home is where memories are made — but it’s also where air, skin, and surfaces come together. What we clean with touches everything: our children’s toys, our pets’ paws, our own hands.


At Better Than Clean, we believe a clean home should never come at the cost of your family’s health. That’s why we make family-safe cleaning products that are proven by science and trusted by parents, pet owners, and people with sensitivities alike.

 

🧠 What “Family Safe” Really Means


The words “gentle,” “natural,” or “eco-friendly” sound comforting — but they’re often marketing terms without strict definitions. True family safety means more than what’s not inside a formula — it’s about the rigor behind what is.

To earn your trust, Better Than Clean products are:


✅ Fragrance-Free Certified — zero perfumes, masking scents, or essential oils
✅ EWG “A” Rated — independently verified for health and environmental safety
✅ EPA Safer Choice Certified — recognized for safer chemistry
✅ USDA Biobased (97-100%) — plant-based and biodegradable
✅ Dermatologist- & Pediatrician-Tested — safe for sensitive skin and small hands


Because safe shouldn’t be a guess — it should be guaranteed.

 

🌿 Clean Doesn’t Have to Be Harsh


Most conventional cleaners rely on ingredients like ammonia, bleach, or sulfates to break down dirt. But these chemicals can irritate lungs, eyes, and skin — especially in children or anyone with asthma or eczema.


Our science-led formulas use plant-based surfactants derived from coconuts and sugars. They’re tough on grease, soap scum, and food residue — without the fumes or film.


Better Than Clean products are lab-tested to perform as well as or better than traditional brands — minus the irritation.

 

🧴 The Everyday Difference You’ll Feel

  • Kitchen: Food-safe cleaning for high chairs, counters, and dishes.
  • Bathroom: Fragrance-free shine without eye-watering fumes.
  • Floors: Gentle enough for crawling babies and curious pets.
  • Every formula is made to simplify safe cleaning, not complicate it.

 

đź’¬ Why We Built Better Than Clean


When co-founder Dr. Greg van Buskirk, a former Clorox scientist, couldn’t find products that met his own family’s safety standards, he decided to make them himself.


His goal wasn’t just to make cleaning cleaner — it was to make it better. That’s how Better Than Clean was born: grounded in science, guided by safety, and made for every home that cares about both.

 

đź’š Clean You Can Feel Good About


Your home should be a space of comfort, not caution.  With Better Than Clean, you can clean fearlessly — knowing every ingredient has been chosen for your family’s health and the planet’s future.
