Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Ingestion risk (concentrated tablet form), Skin irritation from surfactant contact and Solubility and residue in water systems on the Blueland 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 Blueland.
  • The Blueland is plant-based surfactants, mineral salts 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.

Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
