What it does: Solvent–Reverse Osmosis water removes trace chemicals, solvents, and treatment residues that can trigger reactions in people with chemical sensitivities.

Why we use it: It also prevents hidden interactions between minerals and ingredients, keeping formulas stable, neutral, and truly fragrance-free. By eliminating these variables, S-RO water creates a gentler, safer product that won’t irritate skin, lungs, or the nervous system.

What it does: Emulsifies oils and water, making stain and soil removal easier.

Why we use it: Alkyl (C10–16) glycosides are plant-based surfactants made from simple sugars and fatty alcohols, making them exceptionally gentle and biodegradable. They clean effectively without the harsh solvents, sulfates, or reactive compounds that often trigger symptoms in people with chemical sensitivities. Because they’re non-ionic, low-irritation, and residue-free, they’re one of the safest surfactant choices for sensitive skin, lungs, and environments.

What it does: Dissolves grime, as well as soils and stains.
Why we use it: Plant-based ethanol derived from corn is a cleaner alternative to petroleum-based ethanol because it doesn’t carry the same solvent residues or harsh chemical byproducts. It evaporates quickly, helps lift oils and grime, and leaves no lingering scent — making it easier on people with chemical or fragrance sensitivities. Because it’s bio-based and highly purified, it provides effective cleaning power without the irritants often found in conventional ethanol sources.

What it does:
Potassium cocoate is a gentle, plant-based soap made from coconut oil that helps break down grease, lift dirt, and rinse clean without leaving residue behind.

Why we use it:
It’s naturally mild, biodegradable, and free from synthetic detergents or harsh additives, making it ideal for people with chemical sensitivities. Its simplicity and low-irritation profile give effective cleaning power while staying safe for everyone.

What it does:
Potassium carbonate is a plant-based mineral buffer that helps balance pH so the cleaning formula stays stable, effective, and gentle on contact.

Why we use it:
It prevents irritation by keeping the formula from becoming too acidic or too alkaline — a key benefit for chemically sensitive people who react to shifts in pH. Because it’s highly refined and free of fragrances, residues, and reactive additives, it supports a predictable, consistent clean with no surprises for sensitive systems.

What it does:
Potassium citrate is a plant-based chelator that binds to minerals in water so they don’t interfere with cleaning performance or leave behind film.

Why we use it:
By controlling mineral buildup, it helps the formula rinse cleaner and feel gentler — a major benefit for chemically sensitive people who react to residues or inconsistent results. Its simplicity, purity, and non-reactive nature keep the formula predictable and irritation-free.
