If we wouldn’t want it for our family, we wouldn’t ask you to use it near yours. We don’t formulate our products with these ingredients:
An air freshening spray for instant fragrance in the home.

Isobutane is a propellant used to dispense a product from a container. It is often used in concert with other propellants such as Butane and Propane. While Isobutane is commonly known for its use as a fuel, for example for camp stoves, in use as a propellant its energy comes from being compressed in a can rather than from being lit or heated. Isobutane is one of the hydrocarbon propellants we used to replace the chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) that were previously used in aerosol products and which were ultimately shown to be damaging to the ozone layer. SC Johnson eliminated the uses of CFCs back in 1975, three years before the government required companies to do so.

Propane is a propellant used to dispense a product from a container. It is often used in concert with other propellants such as Butane and Isobutane. While Propane is commonly known for its use as a fuel, for example for grills and portable stoves, in use as a propellant its energy comes from being compressed in a can rather than from being lit or heated. Propane is one of the hydrocarbon propellants we used to replace the chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) that were previously used in aerosol products and which were ultimately shown to be damaging to the ozone layer.

Sodium Phosphate is a corrosion inhibitor that can also be found in bath products and makeup. It helps keep contents fresh and prevent the erosion or rusting of a can or dispenser. We know there are concerns about phosphates and their impact on waterways and surface water. However, Sodium Phosphate is used in low concentrations to limit the concentrations of total phosphate being used in SC Johnson products and potentially released to surface waters.

Sorbitan Oleate is an emulsifier that can also be found in moisturizers, hair-styling products and soaps. It helps bind ingredients together and keep a formula from separating. In fragranced products, it also helps ensure even distribution of the fragrance. Adding emulsifiers helps ensure that our products provide the same performance use after use.
(A blending agent that ensures even distribution of the ingredients.)
Propylene Glycol is a solubilizer that can also be found in cosmetics, toothpaste, food and beer. It helps ensure even distribution of the ingredients throughout a product, to help it work better. It also can be used as an odor eliminator, as a cleaning agent that removes dirt, as a wetting agent, or as a carrier that enables delivery of the product to the surface. Propylene Glycol is sometimes confused with Ethylene Glycol, the sweet-tasting ingredient that can be used in air conditioning systems and antifreeze products, but it is a different ingredient and is not identified by any government regulatory agencies as a concern.
(Helps ensure even distribution of ingredients.)
Steartrimonium Chloride is a stabilizer that can also be found in skin products, hair conditioners, and other hair care products because of its anti-static properties. It functions as an anti-static and preservative that can modify the pH of the formula. It also helps maintain the stability of the product formula to ensure even distribution of its components.
(Helps maintain a product formula over time.)
