WildWash was founded by Andrew and Jane Cooper, whose love for pets led them to open a pet boutique and pet spa over a decade and a half ago, When Jane, a professional groomer, became pregnant, she was concerned at the number of unnamed chemicals in the products she was using every day. With limited information available on ingredient listing, Jane and Andrew decided to develop their own range of natural products in which they could be confident. They were passionate about creating a brilliantly effective range that would be as good in every way as the highest quality human products available and was delighted to partner with an acclaimed independent boutique apothecary based in the UK who were responsible for some of the finest human products produced. This apothecary, who is also one of the top ten natural fragrance apothecaries in the world, embraced their project with a passion. Committed to quality, they created products that are hand blended and hand stirred, using a diverse and holistic mixture of plants, botanicals, and essential oils to create complex and beautifully fragranced natural products that truly work. At WildWash, the team believes that animals and humans deserve the same quality cosmetics and they pride themselves on being as transparent as possible.
