Allergy UK Product Endorsements

Allergy UK receives many enquiries every year from allergy sufferers wanting information about products available that will not cause their allergies to become worse. With over 30% of the UK population suffering from allergies at one time in their lives, it is becoming increasingly important for companies to provide products they can use safely, in the knowledge that they have been tested and approved by an internationally recognised organisation with very high standards.

In light of the need to give allergy sufferers the reassurance they need, Allergy UK has developed a number of endorsement schemes which do just this, and provide the public with guidance when purchasing 'allergy friendly' products. We are very grateful to all of our endorsement holders for their support and commitment to helping allergy sufferers.

If you are a manufacturer, and you would like to find out more about any of our endorsement schemes, or submit a product for one of the endorsements, please click here.

Seal of Approval

Our main endorsement is the Seal of Approval Award which is given to products that specifically restrict/reduce/remove allergens from the environment of allergy sufferers and also for products which have significantly reduced allergen content. The type of products that currently hold the Seal of Approval Award include vacuum cleaners, steam cleaners, bedding, flooring/carpets, air cleaners & filtration systems, cars, cleaning products, cleaning services, tissues and washing machines.

Consumer Award

Our second endorsement is called the Consumer Award. This award is based on anecdotal evidence and is designed for products which may not specifically restrict or remove allergens, but in their design and use may benefit allergy sufferers by improving their health and general well-being.

Chemically Friendly Award

Our third endorsement is called the Chemically Friendly Award. This endorsement is similar to our other Consumer Award, being based on anecdotal evidence. This award is designed to provide guidance to chemical sensitivity sufferers and for those who wish to reduce their chemical load.
