Are Koala Eco products safe around babies and pets, and can I use them during pregnancy?
Absolutely. Koala Eco products are completely safe to be used around babies and pets, and safe for use during pregnancy. Our cleaners, sprays and lotions are antibacterial and anti-fungal, and we use carefully measured, safe amounts of native Australian essential oils in our products, which are also certified cruelty-free, allergy safe, and non-toxic. We aim for the naturopathic benefits of breathing in essential oils rather than customers being blasted by synthetic fragrance: so there are no artificial perfumes in anything we make.
I have a septic tank. Are your products OK for this?
All of Koala Eco’s products are totally suitable for grey water and septic tanks. Any alcohol we use in our ingredients is plant-derived and biodegradable. This means it is produced as a by-product of the fermentation of natural sugars in fruit. It’s a natural preservative and also kills germs.
All of the ingredients in our products including this plant-derived alcohol are readily biodegradable and do not contain phosphates or any other chemicals known to create issues in septic systems.
Are Natural and Non-Toxic cleaning products strong enough to kill germs?
All of Koala Eco’s surface sprays have been independently lab-tested, and have the capacity to kill 99.9% of germs, viruses and bacteria when used as directed. Regular cleaning is recommended – and don’t forget doorknobs and taps as well as draining boards and frequently used hard surfaces.

Packaging & Sustainability
Packaged in recyclable 100% post-consumer recycled bottles.
Koala Eco bottles are made from 100% locally collected recycled plastic and are also recyclable. They also offer refills, concentrates and refillable glass options.
Known as rPET, this process recycles original PET containers into ‘new’ bottles, and is more environmentally friendly because rPET has a lower carbon footprint than virgin PET.
The same size, strength, shape and transparency as our original bottles, our rPET bottles appear—appropriately enough—to have a slight tint. After use, they are still recyclable into other products.
Origin
Australian Made and Owned.
"The Koala Eco Laundry Wash not only cleans my clothes but the Lemon Scented Eucalyptus and Rosemary Essential Oil leaves a subtle and fresh scent which softly lingers on my favourite styles."

Their range of natural and eco-friendly cleaning and hand and body products are made locally with high concentrations of Australian essential oils, such as Eucalyptus, Peppermint and Lemon Myrtle, and are certified non-toxic, vegan and allergy safe.
Their range is non-toxic and safe for even the littlest members and furry friends in every household. Ethically formulated, Koala Eco products are plant-based, vegan, certified cruelty-free and never tested on animals.
Thanks to plant-based ingredients, their products perform better than their toxic alternatives. Their spray cleaners are independently lab tested and proven to kill 99.9% of germs and bacteria.

Their bottles are made from recycled and recyclable rPet. Refills are available to cut down on the number of bottles in circulation.
Koala Eco aims to bring more nature into people’s daily lives, both through our natural and sustainable product range, as well as our partnership with #NaturePact, an initiative of the People and Parks Foundation. We are proud supporters of 1% for the Planet, WWF, and Port Stephens Koala Sanctuary. -
Meet The Founders
Brought together by a love of nature and a shared passion for the environment, co-founders Jessica and Paul’s story spans the densely urban surroundings of New York City, the untamed landscape of rural Western Australia and a leafy, beachside suburb in Sydney, Australia, where they now live with their two sons, Emerson and Arthur.
A health scare during their younger son’s infancy spurred the couple to reassess the products they were using at home. Unable to find brands that were truly natural and safe, yet powerful, and convinced there were many people like them looking to make more natural product choices, Paul and Jessica decided to create their own. They designed a range of cleaning and care products to deliver the performance of conventional brands using plant-based ingredients, while offering an unmatched sensorial experience. Koala Eco was born.
Koala Eco harnesses the wild power of nature and merges it with science, marrying powerful Australian botanicals and plant-derived ingredients with research-backed evidence. Developed in collaboration with specialist chemists, each formula works as well or better than the chemical alternative and each product is unexpectedly beautiful to use.
Jessica and Paul are on a mission to bring truly natural products into the mainstream. They believe that many people would like to make more sustainable, natural product choices, but nagging beliefs that ‘eco’ options compromise on efficacy and require too much effort to find and to buy stand in their way. The aim is for Koala Eco to fill the gap. And it seems to have struck a chord, with a large and ever-growing fan base devoted to the brand.
