Washington D.C., May 10, 2023 — The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA) and Allergy Standards Limited (ASL) have announced that arbOUR Products Free+Clear laundry detergent has been CERTIFIED by the asthma & allergy friendly® Certification Program.

The asthma & allergy friendly® Certification Program helps consumers identify products for the home that are more suitable for people with asthma and allergies. Products undergo independent testing to meet scientific standards established by the program. The certification mark is only awarded to those products that pass those standards.

To earn the certification, Free+Clear laundry detergent passed rigorous scientific testing and demonstrated:

• Its ability to reduce over 95% of allergens related to pet dander and dust mites from fabrics washed with the detergent.
• It has extremely low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions when used.
• Each ingredient has been reviewed to ensure that any chemicals with allergenic or sensitizing properties are either absent or at suitably low levels.

“We are delighted that arbOUR Products Free+Clear laundry detergent has joined the growing number of leading product manufacturers to achieve asthma & allergy friendly® Certification,” shared Dr. John McKeon, CEO of ASL. “Consumers can be confident that CERTIFIED laundry detergent can remove allergens like dust mite allergen and pet allergen, and that product claims are based on good science.”

“For people with asthma and allergies, reducing allergens is an important part of their asthma and allergy management plan,” said Kenneth Mendez, CEO and president of AAFA. “We congratulate arbOUR Products on earning the rigorous asthma & allergy friendly® Certification for its Free+Clear laundry detergent.”
