Pay attention to ingredients? Choose wisely - Melaleuca Product Ingredient Philosophy

Although there are many products on the market that are easy to use and have great brand influence, these international companies often use products that look easy to use but are actually very cheap and harmful to you and your family for the benefit of shareholders. , as well as chemical components that cause environmental harm.

As for Melaleuca, our products have always been known for being "reassuring" and "environmentally friendly". We avoid ingredients that cannot guarantee complete peace of mind and replace them with ingredients extracted from natural plants to provide better safety. Peace of mind and effective solutions.

Melaleuca's success stems from the company's insistence on treating environmental abundance as an important part of its corporate culture from the very beginning. From attaching importance to the environment to selling environmentally friendly products, you are completely You can rest assured that Melaleuca not only cares about the home you live in, but also the planet we all live on.

So for decades, Melaleuca has been providing you with safe and effective cleaning products that are committed to being kind to the environment.

If you want to know what the secret of Melaleuca’s success is, in fact, its product philosophy is very simple, that is: Melaleuca insists on choosing natural and safe ingredients, and always seeks inspiration and solutions from nature. .

Melaleuca's values ??have always been deeply rooted in the four basic requirements of products. Every product we are committed to providing is:

① Reassuring: No Endangering your health and the health of your family in any way.

② The effect is remarkable: Our products are not only safe, but also must achieve very good results.

③ Be kind to the environment: biodegradable and not easily burdensome to the environment. Our products use dilutable formulas to reduce resource waste.

④ Reasonable price: As a company with direct consumer purchasing model, we hope to make every penny you spend worthwhile.

So every choice the company makes will be considered from these four basic requirements; this is what we define as the concept of "wise choice".

Developing products that are reassuring, environmentally friendly, efficient and cost-effective is not an easy task, because it is not as simple as just shouting slogans. It requires a professional R&D team. and decades of unremitting efforts.

Melaleuca is one of the earliest companies to promote and develop plant-derived ingredient technology. We are the first company in the world to apply essential oils to products, and have phosphate-free detergents and super-concentrated technology.

Melaleuca has hundreds of professional Ph.D.s and excellent R&D scientists and formulators to form a very professional and excellent team. They have extensive scientific expertise and have developed through years of R&D research. Obtained a number of technology patents.

Nowadays, it seems that "green" has become a popular label for products, and some so-called environmentally friendly companies on the Internet are actually still in their infancy. Other companies have actually been polluting the environment for decades, but have only recently "changed" suddenly, following the trend and flaunting their own environmentally responsible concepts to win favor with consumers. There are also companies that find themselves lagging far behind in providing health-concept products and acquire environmentally friendly subsidiaries in the hope of keeping up with the trend. Some companies outsource their ingredient selection, product development and production to companies that have no understanding of natural science or ingredient safety.

However, Melaleuca has always been a pioneer and steadfast executor of "green environmental protection" because Melaleuca was committed to environmental protection decades before "green" became fashionable.

So we have more professional green and environmental protection experience. For example, if you go to see a doctor, would you rather choose a heart surgeon with 30 years of successful surgical experience and an excellent surgical team, or a young doctor who has just started practicing and has no successful experience?

While everyone must start somewhere, only experience brings knowledge, expertise and skills.

When creating great recipes, we require a high level of skill and expertise. There are so many so-called green products on the market that don’t work. They don't work as well as you might expect.

Therefore, it is a huge challenge to provide products that are both safe and effective.

When we find that the harmful chemicals used by some international brands are cheap and easy to work, ensuring safety and effectiveness becomes a more difficult challenge.

We meet this challenge every day, which requires more expertise and a deeper understanding of natural ingredients. Nature has effective solutions, we're just better at discovering them. Our expertise doesn't come overnight, we've been working on it for over 30 years.

Why do Melaleuca products make you and your family feel more at ease? Because Melaleuca prioritizes natural and safe ingredients.

Although Mr. Vandersloot, the founder of Melaleuca, knows that natural and plant-derived ingredients may be more expensive. But he still insists on investing higher costs in this key area, which also allows us to create high-quality products that we can be proud of.

That’s why Melaleuca will never use all the ingredients on the “Never Additive” list!
