Dropps

Dropps has committed to using renewable ingredients and avoiding ones that pose a signfiicant threat to the climate, including parabens, phthalates, and phosphates. It doesn't make commitments regarding other petrochemicals, palm oil, PFAs, and Commons found evidence of petrochemical-based ingredients in its products, including polyvinyl alcohol, which is a petrochemical-based film with contested scientific evidence of its biodegradability. Dropps carries products that are certified by Leaping Bunny and USDA Certified Biobased.

Dropps offers all of its products in a concentrated format, which reduces shipping emissions and minimizes packaging use. It uses plastic-free packaging and containers, though its products contain polyvinyl alcohol film. It uses eco-friendly materials in its product containers, including ones that are recyclable.
