I really like Norwex products. I might even love Norwex products. However, a disappointing part of my shopping experience on the Norwex website (as well as through their catalog) is that they don't provide a list of the ingredients that are in any of their products. I find this especially surprising since their global mission is to "improve quality of life by radically reducing chemicals in our homes." If you are buying Norwex products, or thinking about buying them, then chances are that you are like me and you are concerned about toxic ingredients in common household products.
Now that I am an independent sales consultant with Norwex I have had the opportunity to purchase (or receive for free!) most of the products in their catalog. In this post I am publishing all of the ingredients on the labels for all of the products that I own. I hope that this post will be helpful to others who are considering purchasing the products but are concerned about what might be in them.
Note for household cleaning products: The USA does not require household cleaning products (such as laundry detergents, bathroom cleaners, etc) to label all of the ingredients that are contained in them. Only ingredients that are immediately hazardous are required to be listed. The information that I have provided here lists all of the ingredients that are on the label but there may be (and probably are) other ingredients contained in the cleaning products that are not listed on the label.

Any Lye in it?
ReplyDeleteIf it's real soap, which none of this is, it is made using a lye solution and oils but there is NO lye in the finished product.
DeleteHow come they don't label any dish soap ingredients? I'd love to know what's in the dish soap.
ReplyDeleteI'm a Norwex Rep. We all have access to this info. Here's the ingredients of the new dishwashing liquid you were looking for: https://drive.google.com/file/d/12rKzbENzLytqYWS7Ew0gXjNpCZQ3ON3P/view?usp=sharing
DeleteHey everyone, Just wanted you to know that in Summer 2018, Norwex reformulated most of these products. Any Norwex Rep has access to the COMPLETE product ingredients. If I can help answer questions, send me an email monica.getclean(at)gmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteWow! I get a LOT of emails about this.
DeleteHere's a link to the ingredients (copy/paste into your browser):

Hi Monica, thanks for sharing these! Could you share the ingredients for the new Liquid Laundry Detergent too? The new dry detergent hasn't been working as well for us, so we'd like to see if the liquid one happens to have a similar formula to the old dry formula.
Deletethis link is not valid :(

ReplyDeleteNorwex is popularly known for its microfiber cleaning cloths. These clothes have antibacterial fibers that hold and attract dirt, grease, and dust which usually requires chemicals to break down.

norwex reviews
I find it disheartening that they don't provide the ingredients to their website. I've been searching for the ingredients for the mold and mildew remover but still can't find it. They only tell s what is NOT in a product. After finding and reading through some of the personal care products and finding PEG ingredients, I can only imagine that they don't provide the list because there are still some questionable or harmful ingredients in their products.
ReplyDeleteaeimom Email me. I have the list of ingredients for the mold and mildew for you if you’re still interested. antrosari @ gmail dot com
DeleteCould you just post them? I'm interested too
Delete1000% agree. Any company that is proud of its ingredients would proudly display ALL of them. Not just the few "active" ones. I don't use Norwex because there are better alternatives that have transparency and don't compromise on ingredients.
DeleteAll their ingredients will soon be listed on their containers.
Deletewhat are the biodegradable surfacants? Why aren't these ever listed????
ReplyDeleteCan someone please tell me the ingredients in the Norwex (laundry) stain remover?
