The Leaping Bunny certification is internationally recognized as a symbol of cruelty-free practices, assuring consumers that no animal testing was conducted during product development. This certification underscores our dedication to ethical and humane practices in product development and demonstrates our transparency, accountability, and commitment to cruelty-free practices.

Our system eliminates single-use plastic bottles, and through our carbon offset projects with Climate Partner, a prominent international climate action solution provider, we’re certified carbon neutral. This covers every aspect of our operations, from sourcing and production to distribution and packaging.
Force of Nature is the first disinfectant to achieve Carbon Neutral certification. Compared to traditional bottled cleaners, our product not only helps reduce plastic waste by 97% but also has 10 times fewer emissions.
Mayo Clinic SkinSAFE Highest Rating
Force of Nature Cleaner earns the 100% top allergen-free rating by Mayo Clinic’s SkinSAFE product safety rating system. That means that our formula contains no surfactants, preservatives, dyes, fragrances or other ingredients that can trigger or exacerbate skin allergies.
EPA Registered
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) plays a crucial role in safeguarding public health by regulating the efficacy of disinfectant products. EPA registration, which is required for any surface cleaner that claims to kill germs, helps ensure that disinfectants kill the microorganisms they say they do on their labels. To receive federal EPA registration, the product is tested using extremely rigorous EPA required testing protocols across multiple batches of product. Suppliers, purity, concentration & processing of all individual ingredients must be approved, with strict statistical limits on all. The product also goes through rigorous safety reviews.
The EPA registers 3 types of disinfectants based on their germ-killing efficacy: Limited, Broad-Spectrum, and Hospital-Grade. Limited disinfectants are effective against only a specific major group of microorganisms (such as gram-positive or gram-negative bacteria). Broad-spectrum disinfectants are effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Hospital disinfectants are broad-spectrum disinfectants that are also effective against the nosocomial bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Force of Nature is an EPA-registered hospital-grade disinfectant that kills 99.9% of germs, viruses, and bacteria when used as directed on hard, non-porous surfaces. It’s on the EPA’s List N (the disinfectants approved for use against COVID-19) and List Q (approved for use against Tier 1 Emerging Viral Pathogens). So, does Force of Nature cleaner really work? Absolutely—it meets the stringent standards set by the EPA for hospital-grade disinfectants, ensuring effective germ elimination and protection against viruses and bacteria.
EPA Safer Choice
EPA Safer Choice is a certification earned by products that meet their strictest standards for human and pet health and safety, product performance, and sustainability.
Packaging: Safer Choice reviews all product packaging against criteria defined in the Safer Choice Standard. Partners are required to implement sustainable packaging measures and to improve the packaging profile for their recognized products during the partnership.
