Animal Products & Animal Testing

Since our foundation in 1980 Ecover has never tested any finished products or ingredients on sentient animals, nor has it ordered such tests by third parties.
For research and product development Ecover uses alternative methods of testing only: e.g. based on bacteria, Daphnia, algae, red blood cells or theoretical evaluation models.
Ecover do not condone or advocate animal testing. Ecover will not knowingly accept or work with suppliers that we know test ingredients on animals.
Ecover is not a member of BIBRA (British Industrial Biological Research Association, contract testing laboratory in the UK) or any other contract testing laboratory.
Ecover supports the Fund for the Replacement of Animals in Medical Experiments (FRAME)
