1. Safety differences between ingredients and formulas
Baby wipes
Core requirements: zero irritation, high allergy protection
The skin barrier of babies is weak (pH 5.4-5.9), so mild ingredients such as EDI ultrapure water and food-grade xylitol are required to avoid risky substances such as alcohol, MIT preservatives, and fluorescent agents.
Typical formula: spunlace non-woven fabric (natural plant fiber), chamomile/camellia seed extract (soothing and anti-allergic), glycerin/hyaluronic acid (moisturizing and locking moisture)
Cat wipes
Core requirements: adapt to the physiological characteristics of pets
The pH of cat skin is neutral (6.2-7.5), and antibacterial ingredients (such as polyaminopropyl biguanide) need to be added to clean the hair, while avoiding substances that are toxic to cats such as tea tree essential oil.
Typical formula: degradable pearl pattern non-woven fabric (wear-resistant cleaning power), chlorhexidine disalt (antibacterial and anti-interdigital), aloe vera gel (reduces skin irritation after scratching)
| 2. Comparison of regulations and certification standards | ||
| Categories | Baby wipes | Cat wipes |
| Mandatory certification | National standard GB/T 27728 (wet wipes) cosmetic grade filing (including functional claims) | General safety standards for pet products (through ISO 22716) |
| Detection focus | Microbial limit, migratable fluorescent whitening agent, pH value | Heavy metal residue, irritant screening |
| Risk control | Toxicology test report must be submitted | Usually refer to the <Feed Hygiene Standard> |
3. Usage scenarios and functional design
Baby wipes:
Cleaning scenarios: diaper area, mouth, hands and face, emergency when going out
Extended functions: special type for hands and mouth (swallowable safety), antibacterial type (low concentration of benzalkonium chloride), cream type (preventing red buttocks)
Cat wipes:
Cleaning scenarios: dirt on soles, tear marks, anal residue, postoperative care
Extended functions: deodorizing type (decomposing ammonia odor molecules), insect repellent auxiliary type (used with medicated bath), free combing type (adding smoothing factor)
