Directions from Packaging

Follow garment care label instructions. BabyGanics 3x Concentrated Detergent can be used to pretreat stains before washing. Pour directly onto stained fabric and rub gently. Allow garment to soak before washing. (Always test inside seam for colorfastness.) Measuring instructions apply to both standard and HE washers. For normal loads fill between lines 1 & 2 (approximately 1/2 cap). For larger loads fill line to #3 (approximately 3/4 cap) Washing full loads helps conserve water. Remember to wash all fabrics that come into contact with your baby's skin in BabyGanics, eg., cloths, bedding and towels. Do not store below 50F.


Warnings

CAUTION: EYE IRRITANT. HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. In case of eye contact flush with water. If swallowed, drink a glassful of water. Call a physician.

This product is not certified as a green cleaner.

PETA Cruelty-free Companies

Companies that join the "Caring Consumer" program of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, a leading international animal rights advocacy organization, attest that "neither they nor their ingredient suppliers conduct or commission any animal tests on ingredients, formulations or finished products, and that they pledge not to do so in the future."

Understanding scores

EWG provides information on cleaning product ingredients from the published scientific literature, to supplement incomplete data available from companies and the government. The ratings indicate the relative level of concern posed by exposure to the ingredients in this product - not the product itself - compared to other product formulations. The ratings reflect potential health hazards but do not account for the level of exposure or individual susceptibility, factors which determine actual health risks, if any.

HOW WE DETERMINE SCORES

Hazard score

The Healthy Cleaning ingredient hazard score, from A to F, reflects known and suspected hazards linked to the ingredients. The EWG VERIFIED® mark means a product meets EWG’s strictest criteria for transparency and health.

Score legend
WEIGHT-OF-EVIDENCE APPROACH

A product’s hazard score is not an average of the ingredients’ hazard scores. It is calculated using a weight-of-evidence approach that factors in all of the hazards or health impacts associated with the ingredients.
