Cleanest creatine in the UK and EU (heavy-metal lab reports, 2026)
Short answer: Based on published batch lab reports, the creatines with the lowest reporting limits for heavy metals are Bodylab Creatine Monohydrate (EU: lead, cadmium and arsenic all <0.003 mg/kg, BAV Institut, Mar 2026) and Hero Pro 100% Creatine Creapure 300g (UK: lead, cadmium, mercury and arsenic all <0.005 mg/kg, Eurofins Polska, Apr 2025). The newest report is Brandl Nutrition Kreatin Monohydrat (Bilacon, Sep 2026, all four metals not detected). GymBeam Creapure and HSN Creatine Excell also publish measured creatine content for the same batch. Every measured result we hold is far below the EU 2023/915 limits (lead 3.0, cadmium 1.0, mercury 0.10 mg/kg).

FAQ
Which creatine has the lowest heavy metals?
No product in our listings has a measured lead value above 0.012 mg/kg (Hero Pro 100% Pure Creatine 1000g, Eurofins Polska, Apr 2024), which is about 250 times under the EU limit of 3.0 mg/kg. The lowest reporting limits are Bodylab (lead, cadmium and arsenic <0.003 mg/kg, mercury <0.0017 mg/kg).
Is there a lab-tested creatine sold in the UK?
Yes. Hero Pro (London company; Creapure 300g with all four metals <0.005 mg/kg, and 100% Pure Creatine 1000g with lead 0.012 mg/kg), Sunday Natural Creavitalis on sunday-natural.co.uk (GBA Hamburg, Apr 2026) and Vilgain on vilgain.co.uk (raw-material report only).
Which creatines test both heavy metals and purity?
GymBeam 100% Creapure (99.0 g creatine monohydrate per 100 g, GBA, same batch as the metals report), HSN Creatine Excell (88.4% creatine vs 87.9% declared), Bodylab (87% creatine) and Sunday Natural Creavitalis (3 g creatine per portion confirmed).
Is Creapure cleaner than other creatine?
Not automatically. In our listings, non-Creapure products such as Bodylab and HSN 200 mesh also have very low results. Contamination depends on the batch, so check the report for your lot.
Which creatine reports leave out arsenic?
OstroVit (both products), GymBeam and Novoma test lead, cadmium and mercury but not arsenic.
