Cleaning your home with harsh chemicals that can compromise your health and the environment seems counterintuitive to us. Sure, getting rid of bacteria and grime is necessary but at what expense?
With growing awareness of the dangers posed by traditional cleaning products, more people are turning to non-toxic, eco-friendly alternatives that clean just as effectively without the harmful side effects. That’s where Mindful Mop comes in. 😉
Whether you’re concerned about allergies, chemical sensitivities, or the impact on the planet, non-toxic cleaning companies like us and at-home cleaning supply brands are the perfect solution. Below, we highlight the Top 5 Best Non-toxic Cleaning brands that you can trust for a cleaner, safer home.
1. Seventh Generation
Why it’s great:
Seventh Generation has been a leader in the eco-friendly cleaning space for decades. The brand’s commitment to sustainability is evident through its use of plant-based ingredients and packaging made from recycled materials. Seventh Generation’s products are free from chlorine bleach, synthetic fragrances, and dyes, making them a great choice for anyone sensitive to chemicals. We personally use a ton of Seventh Generation products in our residential cleanings.
Our favorite products:
- Seventh Generation Disinfecting Multi-Surface Cleaner

Why we love it:
Seventh Generation is one of the few brands that uses full ingredient transparency, so you know exactly what you’re using in your home. Which is especially important for those with specific allergies or chemical sensitivities. Their products are all third party tested for quality assurance. They use zero-waste packaging with 97% of the PCR plastic containers being recycled and recyclable. And our personal favorite is their current initiative to be completely toxin free by 2025.
2. Puracy
Why it’s great:
Puracy is a family-owned company whose products were developed by chemists and PhD’s. Their claim to fame is due to the non-toxic, plant and mineral-based formulas, that are safe and effective for household cleaning. The brand is also certified cruelty-free, vegan, sulfate and residue free.

Why we love it:
Puracy is a brand that started from a place we relate to…the founder noticed his doggo was getting sick after he would clean his house. Once he realized it was due to the cleaning chemicals he was using, he made it his mission to create safer products for him and his family, then to share those with the world. We love a good start-up mission story!
