Big plastic bottles of detergent, such as Persil, have been the household staple for the last few decades. But they are heavy in chemicals such as artificial scents and result in dozens of plastic bottles to waste every year. Alternatives that are natural and effective include:
Laundry Sheets from Simple Living Eco
The refillable Eco Egg and
Soapnuts - organic tree fruits grown in India that contain real natural 'soap' and can be used directly in your washing machine.
Wash clothes less often
Use the 'Eco' setting if your machine has one
Wash cold - 30 degrees C is plenty
Use an eco detergent without harsh chemicals
Ditch fabric softener
Have fuller loads
Air Dry
Consider a microfibre collecting bag
Choose natural materials
Clothing, bedding, and other textiles shed microplastics in fibre form and are major contributors to global plastic pollution. These microfibres, which are stripped and carried off by friction and turbulence in the washing machine, enter our wastewater, eventually ending up in the environment.
To reduce this pollution, choose natural materials and also follow the same guidelines as above:
Wash clothes less often
Use the 'Eco' setting if your machine has one
Wash cold - 30 degrees C is plenty
Use an eco detergent without harsh chemicals
Ditch fabric softener
Have fuller loads
Air Dry
Consider a microfibre collecting bag
The coasters are excellent quality, a really lovely design, and really reasonably priced. They were shipped and delivered quickly and just an all 'round positive experience and purchase.
I can't comment on the actual products I ordered because they were all gifts, but the packaging is good and everything attractive. The order came quickly. There is such a huge choice on the website I will certainly be using it again.
Always loved these bags and now have found one which is kind to the earth and looks so cheery and can be taken anywhere with all the goodies or everyday essentials if you're not using for groceries etc.
Very happy with my purchase, nice quality and colour. Perfect size
