No Animal Testing

Dr. Bronner's qualifies for the rabbit and stars logo of the Coalition for Consumer Information on Cosmetics (CCIC). This logo certifies that our product and all of our ingredients are not tested on animals. The CCIC, a coalition of animal rights organisations, requires independent audit for confirmation.
In addition to this, Dr Bronner's and Sun Dog products are recognised in Australia by Choose Cruelty Free, a similar organisation to the CCIC. Choose Cruelty Free's accreditation criteria is probably the most stringent in the world today, providing the consumer with the ability to make an informed choice.

Many people have no idea how extensive animal testing is in the cosmetic industry. These tests are extremely painful, usually resulting in death, and are almost always unnecessary. Almost all ingredients have been tested on animals at some point in the past, and there is extensive safety information available through literature searches. Even if testing should be necessary, there are many tests available to establish product safety that do not involve animals. To continue testing on animals for the sake of human vanity when we already have many safe, established ingredients and formulations is inhumane.
