Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Fragrance allergens, Enzyme sensitization and Skin irritation from residue buildup on the Biokleen and not on the Dirty Labs.
  • We flag Enzyme sensitization (protease/amylase) and Residual surfactant skin irritation on the Dirty Labs and not on the Biokleen.
  • The Biokleen is plant-based surfactants, enzymes, water where the Dirty Labs is Plant-based surfactants, enzymes, water, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.
