In-Depth Review
Professional Grade, Plant-Derived Power
Puracy was founded on the idea that you shouldn't have to choose between a product that works and a product that is safe for your children and pets. Their All Purpose Cleaner is a standout in the green cleaning market, utilizing a streak-free formula that works on every imaginable surface, from granite countertops to glass and electronic screens. Unlike traditional cleaners that rely on ammonia or bleach, Puracy uses surfactants derived from coconut and vegetable sources.
Clean Ingredients for a Healthy Home
The formulation was developed alongside PhD chemists who specialize in green technology. It avoids the 'toxic' trio often found in household sprays: SLS, SLES, and synthetic fragrances. Instead, it uses a proprietary blend of Decyl Glucoside and natural extracts. This commitment to safety has earned them the EWG Verified seal, the gold standard for ingredient transparency.
| Surface Safety | Effectiveness |
|---|---|
| Finished Wood | Highly Recommended |
| Stainless Steel | No Streaks |
| Quartz/Granite | pH Neutral / Safe |
- 99.96% Natural Ingredients
- Non-toxic and biodegradable
- Safe for homes with pets and toddlers
