Are Dropps pods septic safe?

Yes, our laundry detergent formulas are specially designed to be safe for septic systems. They break down easily, preventing buildup and ensuring the health and longevity of your plumbing.

Is PVOH biodegradable?

Yes — specifically, detergent-grade PVOH passes OECD 301 ready biodegradability testing, the standard used by regulators worldwide. After dissolving in your wash, the PVOH polymer chains are consumed by microorganisms found naturally in wastewater treatment plants, breaking down completely into CO₂ and water. This has been confirmed by 50+ independent peer-reviewed studies over more than five decades of research.

What are Dropps packaged in?

Dropps's packaging is made with curbside recyclable paperboard.

Our new packaging design is 18% lighter than our previous cardboard. Additionally, the new design features bold text and vibrant colors to better differentiate our products.
