Transparency is consumer’s right

We believe that what goes into our products matters just as much as how well they work. That’s why we carefully choose plant-based surfactants and use them at effective concentrations. We avoid adding more than necessary - no excessive surfactants or harmful ingredients - only what’s needed to deliver effective performance.

We also avoid ingredients that may be harmful to people or the environment, focusing instead on safer, thoughtfully selected alternatives. We consciously exclude substances that have high irritation and those that may be possible Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) or Carcinogens, such as: Paraben, Triclosan, Formaldehyde, Quats, Phosphates, Chlorine, Phthalates, Synthetic Musks, Dyes, LAS, SLS, Harsh Solvents.

Active Ingredients

Our active ingredients are plant-derived, selected for both performance and gentleness. After all, effective cleaning should never mean compromising safety — or the other way around.

From an environmental perspective, we prioritize highly biodegradable ingredients to help reduce the risk of residue buildup in soil and waterways.

• APG (Plant-derived) 
  Derived from corn starch and coconut, APG is an eco-friendly (readily biodegradable according to OECD 301), low toxicity, mild-to-skin surfactant that is effective yet gentle. 
  
• SLES (Plant-derived)
  SLES selected is coconut-derived and of high quality, with low 1,4-dioxane levels and strong biodegradability, ensuring effective cleaning with reduced environmental impact. 
  
• MES (Plant-derived & Renewable)
  MES is derived from renewable plant sources from palm kernel with RSPO-certified* supply chains. It offers excellent cleaning performance, particularly for grease removal. It is also known for high biodegradability and a lower environmental footprint, with production processes designed to reduce carbon emissions.

Preservatives

We use cosmetic-grade and food-grade preservatives that are carefully selected for safety and low irritation. Our preservatives are chosen to maintain product stability while minimizing impact on both human health and the environment. We strictly avoid harmful preservatives that are Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) or Carcinogens such as:

• Paraben
• Triclosan
• Formaldehydes
• Formaldehyde-releasers.

Natural Essential Oil

We use carefully selected natural essential oils to provide a gentle, pleasant scent. We understand that natural ingredients can still cause irritation, so we keep our fragrance blends simple and conservative to reduce the risk of sensitivity.

To support full transparency, natural essential oils may contain trace amounts of naturally occurring allergens*, such as:

• Limonene
• Linalool
• Citral
• Geraniol
• Eugenol 

*These components occur naturally in essential oils and are present at very low levels in our products.

Synthetic Fragrances

We also use IFRA-compliant fragrances, carefully selected for both safety and scent quality. We strictly avoid harmful ingredients like Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) or Carcinogens such as:

• Phthalates
• Formaldehyde-releasing agents

Colorants

We keep our formulations simple. We do not use added colorants or dyes in our products.

TOXIC ingredient we NEVER Use

At LAGA, we believe what’s left out of our products is just as important as what goes in. Many conventional cleaning products contain harsh chemicals that may be harmful to your health and the environment.

That’s why we’re committed to transparency and safety. We carefully select our ingredients and avoid harmful substances commonly found in household cleaners — so you can clean your home with confidence and peace of mind.

Here is a list of ingredients we never use in our products.
