Cosmetic Check
Scan the barcode - identify toxins. ToxFox provides instant information on over 250,000 cosmetic and personal care products. Whether it's hormone-disrupting substances, nanoparticles, or microplastics - ToxFox uncovers them for you! Simply scan the barcode on the packaging.
The Toxin Question for Everyday Products
With the Toxin Question, ToxFox identifies pollutants in everyday products such as toys, household items, hygiene products, furniture, carpets, shoes, textiles, and electronic devices. Harmful chemicals can accumulate in the body and lead to long-term illnesses like diabetes, cancer, or infertility. Use the iPhone camera to scan the barcode on the packaging. If there are already details about harmful ingredients, they will be displayed immediately. Otherwise, you can inquire directly with the manufacturer through ToxFox if the product contains pollutants. The manufacturer is legally obliged to respond within 45 days. The information goes to you and our database - where it is immediately visible to all consumers. ToxFox becomes smarter over time - along with its users. An easy question that has a double impact. Manufacturers understand: products should be free of pollutants! And contaminated products become shelf-sitters.
