PETAapproved

PETAapproved is a certification program offered by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). The program aims to help consumers identify products that are free from animal testing and do not contain animal-derived ingredients. Companies can submit their products for review by PETA to determine if they meet the program's standards.

To be eligible for PETAapproved certification, a company must demonstrate that its products and their ingredients have not been tested on animals by the company, its suppliers, or any third parties. Additionally, the products must not contain any animal-derived ingredients, such as beeswax, lanolin, or carmine. This includes a commitment to not using animal products in any stage of the manufacturing process.

The PETAapproved logo, often featuring a bunny, can appear on product packaging and marketing materials, signifying the product's ethical sourcing and production. This certification is intended to provide transparency for consumers who are looking to make purchasing decisions that align with their values regarding animal welfare. PETA's website maintains a database of certified brands and products. The program operates globally, with various companies across different sectors, including cosmetics, clothing, and household goods, participating.
