The Benefits of Using Eco-Friendly Cleaning Products

Eco-friendly products have come a long way over the years. From banning plastic straws to recycling cooking oil to use as fuel, public and businesses alike are all making little changes for the good of the planet. With such a minefield of eco-friendly cleaning products out there with a dizzying range of labels and selling points, it can be hard to find what is right for you.

There are a variety of benefits of using eco-cleaning friendly products, such as:

  • Good for sensitive skin – although everyone is different, eco-friendly cleaning products tend to be free of harsh chemicals that can irritating and sometimes dangerous to skin. If you are prone to allergies or suffering from asthma, eco-friendly products tend to be much kinder to your internal systems as well.
  • Cruelty free – Like keeping your furry friends happy? So do we. Eco friendly products almost always avoid testing on animals, so keep an eye out for the label.
  • Environment – Eco-friendly cleaning products are made up of more compostable and organic materials, so biodegrade much better than harmful plastics. A lot of environmentally friendly cleaning companies also encourage using reusable bottles, and ship products in recycled packaging.
  • Surface damage – There is little to no evidence that traditional cleaning products are more effective at cleaning than eco-friendly alternatives, even more so some people have found that harmful chemical cleaners can cause damage to surfaces and cause other problems.

Due to the coronavirus, cleaning product use has skyrocketed and is only growing more and more important. The need for a more eco-friendly future for our cleaning supplies is vital, and is estimated to be worth a retail value of 109 billion a year by 2026. If you're a business, making the change to fully environmentally friendly cleaning supplies could be the only way to go given the rising worries of climate change and the real need for everybody to do their bit. Your employees will be happier, and your surfaces will be cleaner and look their best even longer. I you’re an individual, it is well worth the swap just to see what a difference it can make in your home. We personally love Ecozone Washing Up Liquid Orange Blossom and Coconut, simply because it smells so good and out performs other traditional washing up liquids.

All in all, whether you like it or not, we are all have a responsibility to start thinking about the environment in our shopping habits. Luckily, most of us already prefer to go for the product not tested on animals, or those laundry tablets you get delivered monthly in a little carboard box. We want to make life easier, and fortunately companies are now actively looking to lower their carbon footprint and provide you with something that is safer, more efficient and more effective than ever.
