You've embraced meat-free Monday, you remember to pack your reusable shopping bags, and now you’re looking to take that next step in sustainable living. Switching to vegan and cruelty-free household products is a great way to support ethical brands and eliminate toxic chemicals and other nasties from your home.
Conscious protection: vegan AND cruelty-free
What are vegan and cruelty-free products?- Vegan products do not contain any animal ingredients or animal-derived ingredients
- Cruelty-free products are created without any form of animal testing
Beware, vegan products aren’t necessarily cruelty-free and cruelty-free products aren’t necessarily vegan!
Ingredients to rethink
Making ethical choices about your fabric protector can be difficult. Just like harmful chemicals, animal products are often listed under long, hard to pronounce names. We’re often left with no clue as to what's actually in the bottle.Here are a few you’ll need to keep your eye out for:
- Lanolin – A waxy substance from sheep wool
- Bees wax – A wax made by bees
- Oleyl Alcohol – An unsaturated fatty oil from fish
- Caprylic Acid – A fatty acid from milk
- Tallow – Rendered beef fat
Unfortunately all of these and many other animal products are common ingredients in mainstream fabric protectors.

Love for our animal friends
A sterile, indoor laboratory is no place for an animal. Animals are subject to harmful and often fatal experiments, and it’s no surprise more and more people are making the change to support more sustainable brands that have a conscience. Even if you don’t personally follow a vegan or a plant based diet, choosing ethical and local brands is a no brainer.There are lots of options available when it comes to stain proofing your life, and it can be hard to navigate the labels while you try to make an ethical choice.
With protectME, you can protect with confidence. Our vegan fabric protector is a cruelty free alternative that hasn’t sacrificed quality. The absence of chemicals and animal products doesn’t mean your home is any less protected.
