By choosing the products we carry in our store, you are choosing a healthier lifestyle for you and your family.
We strive for our products to be the best eco-friendly alternatives to the conventional toxic-laden products available today. In addition, we strive to price them comparably to their conventional, non-environmentally friendly counterparts.
We offer zero to low-VOC products. VOC stands for Volatile Organic Compounds. According to the US EPA, VOCs can cause eye, nose, and throat irritation; headaches; loss of coordination; nausea; and damage to liver, kidney, and central nervous system. VOCs are found in products from paints and coatings to underarm deodorant and cleaning fluids. Common VOCs and their detrimental qualities include:
-Formaldehyde: a known carcinogen
-Benzene: a known carcinogen
-Toluene: causes neurological damage
-Xylene: causes neurological damage
-Perchloroethylene: causes central nervous system damage
VOCs have also been found to be a major contributing factor to ozone, a common air pollutant which has been proven to be a public health hazard. Think about having those VOCs trapped inside your home – creating poor indoor air quality for you and your family.
Make the best choice for both you and the environment. Let us help you make that decision today.
