MADE SAFE (Made With Safe Ingredients) is America's first comprehensive human health-focused certification for everyday products. Founded in 2015, it screens products against a comprehensive database of known toxic substances.
MADE SAFE certification ensures products are made without:
- Known carcinogens
- Behavioral toxins (affecting brain/nervous system)
- Developmental toxins
- Endocrine disruptors
- Fire retardants
- Heavy metals
- High-risk pesticides
- Toxic solvents
- Harmful VOCs
The certification covers a wide range of product categories including:
- Baby and kids products
- Personal care and cosmetics
- Household cleaning products
- Bedding and textiles
- Feminine care
Unlike certifications that focus on specific ingredients or categories, MADE SAFE takes a holistic approach, evaluating products for ecosystem safety in addition to human health impacts.
