Defunkify's Sustainability Rating:

Poor

Defunkify's Poor rating is due to a lack of published sustainability efforts or information. It’s a smaller brand, which means it likely has fewer resources for robust sustainability efforts and reporting. When Defunkify publishes more data, we’ll be able to do a more thorough review.

While it has made commitments, it still uses some ingredients that pose a significant threat to the climate, including some petrochemical-based ingredients. Defunkify doesn't disclose sufficient information about its packaging materials, but appears to use plastic packaging of a virgin or undisclosed source, which contributes to waste production and excess energy use. Packaging is a large portion of the cleaning industry's emissions and waste footprint. Defunkify doesn't currently support reusable containers or offer low-waste refill options, which also generates excess packaging waste.


  • Ingredients

    Defunkify has made ingredient commitments to lower its environmental impact, including by avoiding parabens, uncertified palm oil.
