In this article we’ll be exploring sustainable green products. What kinds of sustainable products are out there, and how they can help you and your family to live a sustainable life. Our top five green products are listed below, these are sustainable products we have tried over the years, and can’t live without! Some of them you can purchase, others you can make at home:
Green Products – E-Cloth
We love this green product because it only uses water. So if you have any kind of allergy that is flared up by cleaning chemicals, or you have young children and pets that you do not want to use strong chemicals around these are perfect. E-cloths will last you a long time – at least 300 washes guaranteed and an E-cloth will save you money, by reducing your use of household chemicals by up to 90%. We estimate this to be a saving of up to £100 per year for an average household. If you haven’t tried them before, give them a try. Our favourite E-cloth product is the floor mop, for more information visit their website.
Green Products – Efergy Showertime
This green product will make you aware of how much water you and your family are using in the shower so that you can start saving water today. By being conscious of how much water you are using in the shower you can start to save water, save energ, and save electricity. This clever little device measures water flow and alerts you when you have used a certain amount.
- Save up to 1,825 litres of water per year
- Save up to £3 per year
- Save up to 15kg CO2 per year
Green Products – Water Butt
A water butt is one of our top ten green products, because it allows you to collect rain water and then use it for watering your plants and garden without tapping into your main water supply. Did you know that almost 100,000 litres of rainwater falls on our roofs each year so it makes sense to start making use of it!
Green Products – Soap Nuts
Soap nuts are an amazing part of sustainable products, they are natures washing detergent. You can use them in a muslin bag, in your washing machine instead of washing powder. You can even boil them with water and make your own shampoo! If you haven’t tried them before, we urge you to check them out!
Green Products – Dryer Balls
These are fantastic and you buy them absolutely everywhere, they cut down you drying time and save you money at the same time. Dryer balls naturally soften clothes and can quarter your clothes drying time. It’s a scientifically-tested, environmentally friendly, softening and drying solution makes ironing easier, they also reduce lint and static.
