Consumer Product Testing

HealthyStuff.org product testing discloses chemical hazards in products throughout the economy, including back-to-school supplies, Halloween face paint, child car seats, wallpaper and flooring, pet toys, vehicles, and more. These tests drive companies to change products and support policy reform. Since 2007 we have tested and disclosed the chemical content of over 10,000 products. Our work has changed how companies design products and supported state and federal efforts to change chemical policy.

Chemical Policy Reform

Partnering with state non-profit environmental organizations across the country and the Safer Chemicals, Healthy Families effort, we work to help pass smart state and federal policies to protect us from toxic chemicals. We’re also having real discussions with the auto industry about changing the way cars are design and encouraging the industry to support key principles of chemical policy reform.
