Can I Use Koparo Floor Cleaner in a Home with Crawling Babies?
Introduction: A Cleaner That’s Safe for Your Little Explorer
In Indian households, once a baby starts crawling, the floor becomes their mini‑playground. Toys, snacks, and tiny hands meet surfaces ,sometimes even with a curious lick. That’s why the floor cleaner you use should be more than effective, it should be truly safe.
Conventional cleaners with bleach, ammonia, or synthetic fragrances can leave residues that irritate delicate baby skin or pose ingestion risks.
If you’re considering a non-toxic floor cleaner that works well and is baby‑safe, Koparo Floor Cleaner is specially formulated for homes where babies crawl, pets roam, and safety is non‑negotiable.

Why Many Conventional Floor Cleaners Aren’t Baby‑Safe
A 2022 review in the Toxics journal emphasises that early exposure to certain cleaning chemicals may interfere with hormonal development and overall health.
