Do they usepalm oil?At its most unsustainable, palm oil is linked to massive deforestation and serious violations of human rights. Look for brands that commit to sourcing palm oil sustainably or avoid it completely.

In October 2015, the UK Government banned the testing of ‘finished’ household products on animals and introduced a ‘qualified ban’ on testing the ingredients on animals. But it’ll make little difference to animal welfare. This is because no animals have been used for testing ‘finished’ household products in the UK since 2010. It’s usually the ingredients not the ‘finished’ products that are tested on animals. Fill Refill manufactures all its products in its own factory in Northamptonshire and has grown out of a family business called Ideal Manufacturing which began in 1980. It is working with the University of Northumbria on a way to enable professional laundries to wash at low temperatures without chlorine bleach or aggressive chemistry and to reduce microfibre shedding. It donates 1% of its turnover to environmental causes as part of its membership of ‘1% for the Planet’.

Does it contain toxics?The long and complex ingredients lists of householdproducts often include toxic chemicals. These are bad for the environment as well as health.
