Dropps' Sustainability Rating

Good


  • Ingredients

    Dropps has committed to avoiding ingredients that pose a signfiicant threat to the climate, including parabens, phthalates, and phosphates. Commons did not find any of these ingredients or many other environmentally-harmful ingredients in this brand's products, which is an achievement for a small brand. Dropps discloses its use of PVA film and commits to using only PVA that meets the OECD 301 standard of biodegradability. It carries products that are certified by Leaping Bunny, EWG Verified, USDA Certified Biobased, and Cradle to Cradle. Dropps is a B Corp.


  • Containers & Packaging

    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, primarily FSC-certified recyclable cardboard. It further reduces its packaging by eliminating the need for additional boxes in shipping.


  • Energy & Water Use

    Dropps doesn't share information on its renewable energy or water conservation strategies in its operations.


  • Refill & Reuse

    Dropps offers bulk sizes or low-waste refill options for most products.


  • Slow Cleaning

    Dropps offers an evergreen collection, which helps prevent production of excess inventory.


  • Marketing

    Commons is still evaluating this brand's marketing emails.


  • Transparency & Reporting

    Dropps doesn't have a dedicated sustainability page, but it shares relevant information on its About Us page and in its FAQ. It publishes annual reports, with information on its initiatives and impact. This is rare for small brands. Its last annual report was published in 2024. Dropps shares a complete list of ingredients used in its products, on a per product basis.


  • Emissions Tracking

    Dropps measures and shares its emissions from its shipping activities. It doesn't appear to share its full value chain emissions, but this is often difficult for small brands to capture. In its most recent update, its estimated shipping emissions footprint was 489 tons CO2e.


  • Targets & Offsets

    Commons couldn't find emissions reduction targets for this brand. The brand offsets emissions from its shipping via a partnership with Clearloop.


  • Supply Chain & Labor

    Dropps doesn't publish information about its supply chain partners. The brand has social responsibility guidelines used to assess its suppliers, but it doesn't share them publicly. Dropps is a B Corp.

Dropps has a Good rating because it intentionally minimizes resource use and environmentally harmful ingredients.
