Is Universal Cleaner eco-certified?

Yes. Koh Universal Cleaner has been certified by Good Environmental Choice Australia (GECA) since 2016. GECA is Australia's only independent, not-for-profit sustainability and environmental certification body. GECA verifies that the formula meets strict thresholds for ingredient safety, biodegradability, packaging impact, and environmental performance across the full product life cycle. Only products that pass independent assessment against every category in the relevant standard receive the GECA mark, which is recognised by government procurement programmes and sustainability ratings tools across Australia and internationally.

Is Universal Cleaner safe for asthma, allergy, and eczema sufferers?

Yes. Koh Universal Cleaner holds three independent sensitivity certifications. Allergy UK certification (since 2021) is awarded after testing for common allergen triggers and is recognised across the UK as a trusted sensitivity mark. Sensitive Choice approval from the National Asthma Council of Australia (since 2021) means it has been independently assessed as a better choice for people with asthma and allergies. Eczema Association of Australasia certification (October 2025) is awarded after review by the peak Australasian eczema body. The fragrance-free, phosphate-free, paraben-free formula keeps irritants and airborne triggers to a minimum, which is what these programmes look for.

✓ Three sensitivity certifications

Allergy UK certified (since 2021), the UK's leading allergy charity sensitivity mark. Sensitive Choice approved by the National Asthma Council of Australia (since 2021). Eczema Association of Australasia certified (October 2025). No fragrance, no harsh fumes, no common irritant additives. Safer to use around kids, pets, and anyone with chemical sensitivities.
