Oxbow has several key partnerships both within North America and China to source the materials used in our Enriched Life items. Our suppliers possess extensive experience in the enrichment category as well as the ability to meet the high standards that Oxbow demands in both the safety and quality of the materials used.
All plant materials, grasses, and woods used in our Enriched Life products are either wild grown or harvested. All varieties of wood used throughout the entirety of our Enriched Life line-up are untreated and have been kiln dried to 10% or less moisture content.
In accordance with California Prop 65 guidance, our sourcing partners (both within and outside of the U.S.) conduct annual testing on our products at their facilities for multiple factors (including but not limited to):
- pesticides
- lead
- phenyl phosphine
- formaldehyde
In addition to the quality control in place at our partner facility, Oxbow also performs a complete hazard analysis and further testing on the products once they arrive at our facility, before distribution.
