Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Hydrogen peroxide decomposition / inhalation risk, Skin and eye irritation (peroxide exposure) and Bleaching or discoloration of fabrics and surfaces on the Branch Basics 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 Branch Basics.
  • The Branch Basics is Hydrogen peroxide-based powder, PFAS-free formulation 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 →
