The IMA Shared-Space Standard™
At IMA, shared-space safety is not a claim - it is a responsibility. We design for mindful homes where scent is experienced by more than one body: adults, pets, and children alike.
Our Shared-Space Standard™ is grounded in transparency and shapes how we formulate, communicate, and guide responsible use.
The IMA Pet-Considerate Standard™
We select essential oils commonly regarded as appropriate for shared spaces with household pets.
Our paw icon indicates that the essential oils selected are commonly regarded as appropriate for shared spaces with pets when used as directed - not that the product is intended for direct or topical use on animals.
We encourage:
• Appropriate dilution
• Gradual introduction
• Proper ventilation
• Observation of your pet’s behaviour
We recognise that every animal responds differently and encourage mindful monitoring in shared environments.
Complete ingredient disclosure is provided for every blend, supporting informed decision-making in your home.
Our goal is not to eliminate risk entirely, but to approach scent with informed care and responsibility.

Direct Use on Pets
Our essential oil blends and roll-ons are designed for ambient use unless otherwise stated.We do not recommend direct topical application on pets without professional guidance.If you are exploring aromatherapy support for your animal, we encourage consultation and are happy to advise where appropriate.
The IMA Child-Conscious Standard™
We consider age and sensitivity when selecting essential oils for shared spaces with children.
Our child icon indicates that the essential oils selected are generally regarded as appropriate for shared spaces with children when used as directed - not that the product is intended for direct application without consideration of age and dilution.
We encourage:
• Appropriate dilution
• Supervised use
• Gradual introduction
• Awareness of individual sensitivity
For infants or very young children, we welcome you to reach out for personalised guidance.
Every blend includes complete ingredient disclosure and clear usage guidance, supporting informed and responsible use.
Instead of blanket assurances, we prioritise transparency, thoughtful formulation, and shared-space awareness.
