Evidence summary
What the Folgers data means.
Folgers has 2 product records in the current NonToxic.com database, spanning 1 category: Tea Coffee. The average score of 20/100 is useful for screening, but shoppers should still inspect product-level records because packaging, processing, test year, and contaminant fields can vary inside the same brand.
The current evidence mix for Folgers is 2 high confidence. Source labels represented on this page include Industry_Study_2024 (1), Research_2024 (1), and test-year labels include 2024 (2). 0 records still need a more specific source URL and 0 records still need a normalized test year, so these items should drive brand transparency requests before any broad safety claim is made.
For practical review, start with Folgers Green Tea, the lowest-scoring Folgers item currently listed, then compare it with Folgers Coffee Grounds, the strongest-scoring item in this brand set. If both products sit in the same category, use the category page to compare competing brands; if they sit in different categories, treat the brand score as a portfolio signal rather than a direct product substitute.
How to use this brand page.
Use this page to decide what to inspect next, not to label every Folgers product safe or unsafe. A brand with one listed product has a narrow evidence base, while a brand with many products may mix lower-concern records with elevated or highest-concern records. The most defensible workflow is to open the product page, read the source row, compare the category alternatives, and submit a correction if a newer lab report or packaging disclosure changes the evidence.
