What Makes ECOMAX Safe & Eco-friendly?
Readily Biodegradable Cleaning Agents
Each Ecomax product has been extensively tested by the Standards and Industrial
Research Institute of Malaysia (SIRIM) using international biodegradability
testing procedures (OECD 301A and OECD 301D).
Ecomax products are certified with the Eco-Label
Mark by SIRIM QAS International Sdn. Bhd. ensuring that all cleaning agents
are readily biodegradable.
No Harmful Ingredients
Ecomax does NOT contain the following ingredients:
Phosphates
& nitrates: |
that cause algae bloom in
waterways that leads to lack of oxygen for aquatic life |
Optical brighteners:
|
that do not readily biodegrade, toxic
to aquatic life |
Nonylphenol: |
that is slow to biodegrade and causes reproductive
defects in aquatic life |
Formaldehyde: |
which is a carcinogenic, respiratory
irritant |
Chlorine: |
that is harsh on skin & surfaces,
toxic to the environment, and may cause reproductive, endocrine &
immune system disorders |
Solvents: |
that are neurotoxins and nervous system
depressants |
Zeolites: |
which are are non-biodegradable |
Ecomax’s ingredients are non-irritating
and safe to use on human skin.
Colourant-free
Ecomax contains no colourants, making it even safer. The colours you see
are a natural result of combining ingredients. Please note that these
colours may change naturally over time, but product efficacy remains unaffected.
Eco-friendly Fragrances
Ecomax’s fragrances are eco-friendly and non-toxic. Each fragrance
was specially designed by experienced perfumers to meet the European Union
Eco-Label Safety Standards.
Recyclable Packaging
Ecomax packaging materials are easily recyclable and the small concentrated
sizes use less resources to recycle.
Less Foam
All Ecomax products are low- to moderate-foaming. The higher a product
foams, the more water is required for rinsing. With less foam, Ecomax
reduces rinse time and helps conserve one of our most precious resources
– water.
Ultra-concentrated
Ecomax products are highly concentrated, thus requiring less per application.
This means less waste is discharged into the environment.
