Frequently Asked Questions What Types of Companies Are on the "Don't Test" List? This list includes companies that make cosmetics, personal-care products, household-cleaning products, and other common household products. All companies that are included on PETA's "don't test" list have signed our statement of assurance verifying that they and their ingredient suppliers don't conduct, commission, pay for, or allow any tests on animals for ingredients, formulations, or finished products anywhere in the world and will not do so in the future. We encourage consumers to support the companies on this list, since we know that they're committed to making products without harming animals. Companies on the "Do Test" list should be shunned until they implement a policy that prohibits animal testing. The "do test" list doesn't include companies that manufacture only products that are required by law to be tested on animals (e.g., pharmaceuticals and garden chemicals). Although PETA is opposed to all animal testing, our focus in those instances is less on the individual companies and more on the regulatory agencies that require animal testing. How Does a Company Get on PETA's Global Animal Test–Free List? In order to be listed as animal test–free by PETA's Beauty Without Bunnies program, a company or brand must submit a legally binding statement of assurance signed by its CEO verifying that it and its ingredient suppliers don't conduct, commission, pay for, or allow any tests on animals for ingredients, formulations, or finished products anywhere in the world and won't do so in the future. Companies applying to the program must also submit detailed paperwork that describes how the companies test their products, where they are sold, what kinds of products they offer, and what kinds of ingredients they use. We also require all companies to have agreements in place with their suppliers that no animal testing is done at any stage on any of the ingredients or raw materials that they supply to the company for its products.

Once a company's CEO signs PETA's statement of assurance that it doesn't test on animals, it will be able to license a Global Beauty Without Bunnies logo for use on product labels and promotional materials. Licensing the logo is optional, and it helps consumers identify animal test–free products at a glance while shopping. For a one-time licensing fee of $350, our logo may be used on companies' products, literature, in-store displays, and websites. To meet individual design needs, the logo may be used in any color combination or in black and white. For companies that sell an entirely vegan product line, a version that reads, "Animal Test–Free and Vegan," is also available.

PETA has a dedicated team of scientists, regulatory specialists, and lawyers working together to end the use of tests on animals worldwide. We work directly with companies' CEOs, management teams, research and development specialists, and global sustainability officers to ensure that all the information that we receive is 100% accurate and complete, from the top down. We require that the statement of assurances be signed by the company's CEO, and the statement is a legally binding document, not just a mere promise that the company won't test on animals or a form response from a customer service Last Updated 09-30-2021 Page 1 representative. Companies are putting their integrity on the line when they share their policies and respond to consumer inquires. A company that has publicly announced an end to tests on animals would face a public relations disaster and potential lawsuits if it were caught lying. Can I Trust a Product Label That Says, 'No Animal Testing'? Labels can be deceptive, so be careful! No specific laws exist regarding "cruelty-free" or "no animal testing" labeling of products, and companies may not have the same high standards as PETA when labeling their products. Our requirements include ingredients, ingredient suppliers, formulations, and finished products. A company that claims not to test on animals but that doesn't appear on our list may have eliminated tests on animals for finished products but not for ingredients. If you communicate with a company that claims not to test on animals but isn't on our list, please ask for a statement in writing and send a copy of it to [email protected]. We'll contact the company to see whether it meets our animal test–free criteria. Meanwhile, we recommend purchasing only products made by companies on our "Don't Test" list. What if a Company Isn't on Either of PETA's Lists? If a company you're searching for isn't on either of PETA's lists, we probably don't have information on its testing policies. A company may claim that it doesn't test on animals, but if it hasn't signed our statement of assurance, it won't be listed here. Contact your favorite companies and ask them to join our list! If you represent a company that doesn't test on animals and would like to be listed in the database, please contact [email protected] to request the application materials to join our program. Why Do Some Companies' Product Labels Say, 'No Animal Ingredients,' When, in Fact, the Products Contain Beeswax, Lanolin, Whey, etc.? Thankfully, by now, most companies know that a vegan product is one that doesn't contain any animal-derived ingredients. Watch out for these ingredients and others that hurt animals: Beeswax Carmine Honey Lanolin If you see ingredients that may or may not be vegan, depending on the source, ask the company about it. To be completely safe, use companies that are PETA-approved cruelty-free—they don't test on animals and use only vegan ingredients. How Often Are PETA's Animal Test–Free Product Lists Updated? PETA's online "Do Test" and "Don't Test" lists are updated daily as new companies are added (e.g., if we're informed of a new company's policy prohibiting animal testing), deleted (e.g., if a company changes its policy or goes out of business), or change their contact information. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The following companies manufacture products that are not tested on animals. Those marked with an asterisk (*) only manufacture vegan products (those made without any animal ingredients, such as cow’s milk, eggs, lanolin, honey, or beeswax).
