Why Plant-Based Cleaners Are Better for Your Home and Health

Keeping your home clean is important, but how you clean matters just as much as what you’re cleaning. Many traditional cleaning products contain harsh chemicals that may remove dirt, but they leave behind something much worse: toxic residues and fumes that harm your health, your family, and the environment.

That’s why more families are switching to plant-based, non-toxic cleaners. At Raecare, we’re committed to creating products that clean powerfully while keeping your home safe.

💨 What’s Really in Traditional Cleaners?

Common household cleaning products often include a cocktail of synthetic chemicals like:

• Ammonia (eye and lung irritant)

• Chlorine bleach (releases toxic fumes)

• Parabens (linked to hormonal disruption)

• Phthalates (commonly hidden in “fragrance”)

• 2-Butoxyethanol (associated with kidney and liver damage)

These chemicals can be absorbed through the skin, inhaled, or left behind on surfaces, meaning your family and pets are constantly exposed.

🌱 Why Choose Plant-Based Cleaning Products?

✅ 1. Safer for Your Family

Plant-based ingredients are gentle on skin and safe to use around kids and pets. No more worrying about what’s in your cleaning spray or whether it’s safe to use on your child’s high chair.

✅ 2. Effective Without the Toxins

Don’t let the word “natural” fool you. Many plant-based ingredients like coconut-derived surfactants and essential oilsare powerful against grease, grime, and germs, without the side effects.

✅ 3. Better for the Environment

Conventional cleaning agents can contaminate waterways and harm aquatic life. Raecare’s biodegradable formulas break down safely and won’t pollute your drain, rivers, or oceans.

✅ 4. No Harsh Fumes

Our cleaners use 100% pure essential oils like lavender, mandarin, and peppermint — offering a refreshing scent without the synthetic “fragrance” chemicals that can trigger headaches or asthma.

🧽 What to Look for in a Safer Cleaner

When shopping for safe, plant-based cleaning products, look for:

• Clear ingredient lists (no vague “fragrance” labels)

• Paraben-free, phthalate-free, ammonia-free

• Cruelty-free and biodegradable

• Packaging that states non-toxic and safe for greywater systems

At Raecare, we check all those boxes — and more.
