Where these two actually differ
- We flag Enzyme sensitization (protease/amylase) and Residual surfactant skin irritation on the Dirty Labs and not on the Grove Collaborative.
- We flag Surfactant irritation or allergic contact dermatitis and Sodium lauryl sulfate or similar anionic surfactant sensitivity on the Grove Collaborative and not on the Dirty Labs.
- The Dirty Labs is Plant-based surfactants, enzymes, water where the Grove Collaborative is cellulose or plant-based sheet with surfactants, 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 →
