      Many traditional cleaning products contain chemicals that can be harmful to the environment, such as phosphates, chlorine, and ammonia. When traditional cleaning products are washed down the drain, they can end up in waterways and harm aquatic life. Many traditional cleaning products are also packaged in non-recyclable materials, which can contribute to waste and pollution. The use of traditional cleaning products can have a cumulative effect on the environment and contribute to long-term environmental damage.

     

      Switching to eco-friendly cleaning products is an easy and affordable way to make a positive impact on the environment and your health. Plus Eco-friendly cleaning products are often cruelty-free and not tested on animals. Most of the products we recommend below are actually more affordable than you would think! 


Here are some of our favorite picks for Eco Friendly Cleaning products! 


Dishes



The wooden dish brush and eco sponge set

This product is really aesthetically pleasing. It’s very simple and natural. The bristles are made out of fibres from the sisal plant (Agave Sisalana, native of Mexico), and Palmyra (palm leaves). The handles are made from beech wood, grown in Germany. Everything about these products are Biodegradable including the packaging. The dish brush head is changeable from the hard bristles to one with soft bristles. The Loofah sponge actually expands and becomes softer in water. 





Mrs. Meyers Liquid Dish Soap, lemon scented


        This product is very well known, and for good reason! It’s biodegradable formula that is designed to cut through grease. It’s perfect for washing dishes by hand. My favorite part is that it smells lemon fresh. 

       This product is not animal tested, which is a big win in my book. It’s also plant derived of cleaning ingredients and made with essential oils. It’s safe for your home and the environment! 






Dropps Dishwashing Detergent


       This dish detergent provides compact design packaging so it reduces wastes. It is not animal tested. Has different scent types or even no scent at all. It uses natural minerals to tackle tough stuck on food and leaves glass sparkling. Dropps even states that your dishes will not need a pre wash so you can conserve more water, which is neat. 




Laundry




     
       These laundry detergent sheets are actually a brilliant idea. You simply put one in the washer like you would regular detergent, it dissolves! It’s mess free. Of course even the packaging is eco friendly. The package seals so you don’t have to worry about humidity harming the detergent sheets, which is an added bonus. 

        There are no harmful chemicals and 5 different scents to choose from. The detergent sheets are pre cut and ready for use. This product also is cruelty free. 


Wool Dryer Balls 

      These dryer balls are reusable. They are hand made using 100% New Zealand premium wool with no synthetic fillers. They eliminate the need for fabric softener or dryer sheets. They reduce static and wrinkles in your clothing! 
        The neat thing about the Wool Dryer Balls is they actually speed up drying time, which in turn saves on your energy bill. How this works is the Wool balls actually tumble around in the dryer which separates the clothes and causes them to dry faster! Pretty neat, huh? 



Trash Bags


    

Plant Based - Hippo Sak Tall Kitchen Bags with Handles, 13 gallon (45 Count)


        There are probably way more environmentally friendly bags than these. What stood out the most to me was the price  for these bags especially with the quantity! The other thing that stood out was that they are not made of plastic or use fossil fuel. They are actually made of sugar cane! 


      

  All Purpose Cleaner







        This all purpose spray doesn’t have harmful chemicals in it. Is plant derived and has essential oils. It’s completely safe to use around kids and pets. It’s safe on floors, countertops, and even walls! It has a very nice citrus scent as well. It’s also cruelty free. 
      It ranks number 6 in Amazon’s all purpose household cleaners. Remember to use reusable wash clothes to eliminate waste! 

    

Another good all purpose cleaner is distilled white vinegar, check out our last blog post all about what vinegar can clean in this link here


Conclusion


       In conclusion, using eco-friendly cleaning products is better for the environment. Going green can help reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to a healthier planet. By choosing products that are free from harsh chemicals and toxins, you can reduce your exposure to harmful substances and create a safer, healthier home for you and your family.
