Melaleuca’s commitment to you
At Melaleuca, we are committed to providing the best cleaning solutions that are safer, effective, eco-friendly, and affordable. Our EcoSense products reflect this commitment, utilizing natural, biodegradable ingredients to ensure the well-being of your family and the environment. We prioritize effectiveness by putting our formulas to the test against grocery store brands, consistently outperforming them without resorting to harsh chemicals.
We believe in the power of naturally derived ingredients that have been proven effective by science. Our concentrated EcoSense products offer exceptional value. Our commitment to the environment extends beyond ingredients. With concentrated formulas, we minimize plastic waste, fuel consumption, and greenhouse gas emissions. Our products are easier on the family budget while contributing to a cleaner planet.
Cleaning is not just a chore; it’s an act of self-care and care for others. That’s why we focus so much on enhancing every EcoSense product we create. Our goal is to offer products that enable you to clean your home while safeguarding your family, the environment, and your wallet. This goal is reflected in our four EcoSense brand pillars, ensuring that whether you’re tackling laundry, dishes, or countertops, you’ll find excellence in every bottle of EcoSense.
Safer
A clean home is restful and restorative. It is both calming and uplifting. Cleaning not only offers peace of mind, but it also removes dirt and grime—making your home a safer environment. But many of the products we trust to clean our homes are filled with ingredients that could be dangerous. Melaleuca deliberately avoids ingredients that pose a risk to you and your family, like chlorine bleach, formaldehyde, parabens, phthalates, and phosphates.
In 2018, a 20-year independent longitudinal study was published as an accumulation of work from 28 researchers from 9 different countries with 6,235 participants. The researchers concluded that using household cleaners from the traditional major brands at least once per week can be just as damaging to respiratory health as smoking 20 cigarettes each day!
Instead of harsh chemicals, we look to nature for solutions that are gentler on your home and family. The difference in EcoSense products is obvious from the moment you use them. They prioritize safety without compromising effectiveness, allowing you to clean with peace of mind. EcoSense has been committed to safety and “going green” long before those ideas became popular and has been ensuring that homes remain both clean and safe ever since.
Effective
Using safer ingredients doesn’t mean we compromise on effectiveness. EcoSense products clean effectively, and unlike other cleaners that when combined can have disastrous consequences, they're designed to work together. We use proven ingredients in our EcoSense formulas to deliver the clean you demand without all the effort.
We offer ideal solutions for any mess. MelaPower® 9x Laundry Detergent uses naturally derived stain removers and enzymes to effectively clean your laundry while preventing clothes from becoming gray and dingy. Sol-U-Guard Botanical® Disinfectant kills 99.9% of household germs and viruses with plant-based disinfectants, so your surfaces stay free of caustic chemicals. Safe & Mighty™ Toilet Bowl Cleaner is formulated with natural thyme oil and organic cleaners (like citric acid, which is found in lemons) to leave your bowl sparkling clean. Sol-U-Mel® 3-in-1 Cleaner uses the natural power of Melaleuca Oil to remove stains that you thought would never come out, including permanent marker, bubblegum, and pet stains.
Each EcoSense cleaner uses natural and effective ingredients to tackle various cleaning tasks, providing you with the perfect solution for every cleaning need while ensuring powerful and effective results.
Eco-friendly
National brands often have unnecessary water and other fillers, and they use more plastic than needed. The home we all live on is just as important as the ones we all live in. Powered by plant-derived, biodegradable ingredients, EcoSense formulas are gentler on the environment. For more than three decades, EcoSense has led the market in concentrated products backed by science. We do what others can’t do: we make concentrated products that are safe and effective. With concentrated formulas, we don’t ship water and you don’t pay for it.
That means we can reduce the size of everything in the supply chain—less storage, fewer storage tanks, smaller warehouses, fewer trucks, fewer trips, less cardboard used in shipping boxes, less fuel to ship the products, and dramatically lower greenhouse emissions. Most of all, less virgin plastic is used in the first place. Choosing EcoSense is an easy and effective way to help care for our environment.
Affordable
At EcoSense, we understand the need to maximize your cleaning budget. That’s why we offer products that eliminate unnecessary costs associated with excess water and filler ingredients. Our concentrated formulas, inspired by nature, deliver exceptional cleaning power at a fraction of the cost of grocery store cleaners. And cleaning with concentrated formulas uses less plastic, less fuel, and less water.
Each of our 12x concentrated cleaners, such as Clear Power®, Tough & Tender®, and Tub & Tile™, provides six 16 fl. oz. spray bottles that cost about $1 per bottle. With EcoSense, you get affordability without compromising safety or effectiveness—or your budget.
