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.

How effective is Dropps Odor & Stain detergent?

Our Odor & Stain detergent combines a potent blend of stain-fighting enzymes and malodor technology. With five specialized enzymes, it effectively breaks down and lifts away stubborn stains from tomato sauce to coffee, while our malodor technology eliminates odors at their source, keeping your fabrics clean and fresh.

Why is Dropps a better alternative to other laundry or dish products?

We've been pioneering biobased cleaning for over 30 years! Our formulas are third-party efficacy tested, crafted with stringent quality and safety parameters, and are never tested on animals. Dropps is also a B Corp certified company, so you can rest easy knowing that we've been evaluated and awarded for our commitment to ethical and sustainable business practices.

What does 'biobased' mean for Dropps Odor + Stain laundry detergent, and why should I care about it?

Our Odor + Stain Laundry Detergent is USDA Certified Biobased and 58% of the formula is derived from renewable biological sources. The shift to renewable resources reduces our dependency on fossil fuels and minimizes our environmental impact, while still providing the cleaning power needed!

Can I use Dropps in cold water and HE machines?

Yes! Dropps are compatible with standard and HE machines, all water temperatures, and washing cycles.

How would you describe the unique fragrance notes in your Odor + Stain laundry detergent?

Our nature-inspired fragrances are crafted from a thoughtful blend of upcycled ingredients, natural essential oils, and sustainable synthetics to deliver a freshness that lasts.
Crisp Breeze: A mix of bright citrus and coastal pine—if refreshing had a scent, this would be it.
Lavender Meadow: A medley of French lavender and cool eucalyptus—the signature scent of relaxation.
Orange Blossom: A blend of vibrant orange and light florals—like the fresh, sweet scent of sunshine.

What are Dropps packaged in?

Dropps's packaging is made with curbside recyclable paperboard. We selected paper for its environmental benefits, as paper boasts the highest recycling rate in the U.S. at 68%—significantly higher than the 9% rate for plastics! 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.
