Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Fragrance allergens (botanical origin) and Skin irritation from surfactant residue on the Ecos and not on the Method.
  • We flag Fragrance allergens and undisclosed fragrance ingredients, Surfactant skin irritation in concentrated form and Aquatic or environmental impact (post-use) on the Method and not on the Ecos.
  • The Ecos is plant-derived surfactants, water, botanical extracts where the Method is Water, surfactants, preservatives, 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 →
