Ecological cleaning and cleaning products

Ecological cleaning and cleaning products


Author:

We decided not to use regular cleaning products. Responsibility should start in companies, not just in households. How many liters of cleaners are cycled in our cleaning machine per week! We wanted to do it and we do it responsibly. To the earth, to nature, to animals, to man - to our children.

These are our 4 reasons for using eco-friendly cleaning products

Rejection of unnecessary chemistry

Chemistry in large quantities is unpredictable and can harm not only children, but also the entire hierarchy below it - animals, insects, microorganisms. Conventional drug stores contain acids, caustics, ammonia, petroleum derivatives, phosphates, and in addition triclosan, chlorine, formaldehyde, EDTA, synthetic fragrances, preservatives, artificial dyes, optical brighteners, petrochemical agents and dozens of others. We do not want to participate in flushing these substances into the water, and we prefer to prevent their contact with children and allergy sufferers.

Water protection

By flushing conventional cleaners into the water waste, the substances contained in them get into the water as well. We can partially remove them.

    • "With some exceptions, the level of sewage treatment in our country is very good, even beyond the current legislation."
      says for the server Ekonews.cz hydrobiologist Jindřich Duras

 

However, water purifiers in cities cannot remove so-called micro-contaminants, some drugstore components, from the water at all. They are, for example, phosphorus compounds (a favorite food for cyanobacteria). Organic micro-contaminants are the remains of household chemicals, for example musk substances (smell fixers and enhancers, appearing for example in deodorants, shampoos and all fragrances), fabric surfactants (causing foaming in e.g. detergents, soaps, etc.) and disinfectants. We cannot detect a number of substances that are in the water, because they cannot be recognized. At first glance, the water looks clear, but it can affect, for example, the hormonal system of aquatic animals, or their behavior. Therefore, in our opinion, it makes sense to protect the water so that even the permitted concentrations of various chemicals do not enter it.

The natural drug store is fully biodegradable in nature.

Eco drugstores, unlike regular drugstores, do not contain raw materials from oil, phosphates, optical brighteners, synthetic fragrances, preservatives, dyes, genetically modified enzymes or petrochemical agents or bleaching activators, but only natural, completely biodegradable (decomposable) substances that have a minimal impact on the water system.

Protecting the health of us all

Chemical-free cosmetics and cleaning products benefit those of us who live in such cleaned spaces. We do not inhale fumes, we do not rub against surfaces that have been treated with industrial cleaners.

In addition, natural drugstores are not tested on animals.
