Ingredients

At Charlie’s Soap, we continuously strive to uphold our goal since day one: make the safest and most effective cleaners on the market, with the use of all-natural ingredients. Though times have changed since our inception in 1976, our approach to safety and environmental stewardship has not. As a result, we’re proud to say that Charlie’s Soap is…

CLEAN

  • It’s all-natural and effective.
  • Goes beneath the surface to target stains.
  • It rinses away completely, leaving no residue behind.

GREEN

  • Charlie’s Soap uses a biodegradable formula.
  • No gloves or masks required — our solutions are safe for your skin.
  • Also rated safe to use around lakes, streams and oceans.

TESTED

  • We always test the efficacy and safety of our products.
  • We provide full transparency and publish our test results.
  • More than that, we make those results available so you can make informed decisions about the use of our products.

Our primary green ingredients

Charlie’s Soap raw materials are separated into two categories: biodegradable ingredients and natural mineral ingredients. As tested by the Japan Food Research Laboratories and Situ Biosciences LLC, our products meet and exceed standards for biodegradability. Our formulas have even been approved by the USDA for use around food-prepping surfaces.

ZERO INCIDENTAL INGREDIENTS

When it comes to all-natural products, it’s not about what’s in them — it’s about what’s not in them. Many other “green” detergents use incidental chemicals to augment their cleaning agents. Charlie’s Soap has none of these chemicals or chemicals like them, including:
  • Baking soda
  • Zeolites
  • Fragrances
  • Bleach
  • Anti-foaming agents
  • Essential oils
  • Anti-redeposition agents
  • Thickening agents
  • Enzymes

The short of it? Charlie’s Soap stands on its simple formula for superior cleaning and safety.
