Is Goal Zero vegan?
Unconfirmed — the only Goal Zero product we score has no vegan certification or ingredient record yet.
Vegan means no animal-derived ingredients — beeswax, lanolin, carmine, collagen, silk or milk proteins — anywhere in the formula. It is a separate claim from cruelty-free, and a brand can be one without the other.

How to check this yourself
A vegan claim covers ingredients and materials, not testing. To confirm a specific product:
- Look for a registered vegan mark (Vegan Society, Vegan Action or V-Label) on the exact product, not only on the brand's website.
- Read the full ingredient or material list for beeswax, lanolin, carmine, shellac, collagen, silk, wool, down and leather.
- Check that colours, glues and finishes are covered too — they are where animal-derived inputs most often hide.
