What’s Really Inside Your Cleaning Products? Let’s Break It Down

What’s Really Inside Your Cleaning Products? Let’s Break It Down

Take a look at the back of your average cleaner bottle. You’ll see a list of unpronounceable ingredients. Ever wonder what those really are?

Understanding what goes into your cleaning products is just as important as knowing what’s in your food.

What’s Hiding in Common Cleaners?

Some common ingredients in household cleaners include:

- Ammonia: Can irritate the skin and lungs
- Sodium Hypochlorite (Bleach): A powerful but toxic disinfectant
- Parabens and preservatives: May disrupt hormones over long-term exposure
- Sulfates (SLS/SLES): Can dry out skin and are harmful to aquatic life

These ingredients are added for foam, scent, or cleaning power—but often without concern for your long-term health or the planet.

Dr.Clino’s Ingredient Philosophy

We believe in cleaning with purpose. That’s why our products include:

- AOS (Alpha Olefin Sulfonate): A mild, biodegradable surfactant
- Enzymes: Break down stains naturally without harsh chemicals
- Sodium Percarbonate: A safer alternative to bleach
- Corn starch: Acts as a natural stabilizer and anti-caking agent
- Essential oils: For fragrance that doesn’t irritate

No harmful fillers. No sulphates. Just ingredients that work and care.
