Where these two actually differ
- We flag Skin and eye irritation from surfactants, Fragrance allergens (lemon essential oil) and Ingestion toxicity on the Dawn and not on the Ecos.
- We flag Fragrance allergens (botanical origin) and Skin irritation from surfactant residue on the Ecos and not on the Dawn.
- The Dawn is water, detergent, essential oil where the Ecos is plant-derived surfactants, water, botanical extracts, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
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 →
