Dear Mrs. Williams:

In response to you contacting us regarding your concern for the ethical treatment of animals, below is our policy.

It is Church and Dwight’s policy to comply with all applicable government regulations, and to ensure that our products will not present unacceptable risk of harm either to our employees or our customers through their handling or intended use. We seek to use only materials already known to be safe, and we avoid animal testing whenever complete and satisfactory information exists to show that our products are safe. As a result of these policies, animal testing has become a last resort, and Church & Dwight has experienced considerable success avoiding such testing through this practice, especially on our Consumer Products.

We hope this information is helpful.
