Why Swap
- Washing up liquid often comes packaged in virgin plastic bottles, increasing demand for petrochemicals which are derived from fossil-fuels
- Harsh chemicals in washing up liquid can be harmful to your skin, and strong chemicals like these take longer to break down in water waste
- Many mainstream household cleaning products are mostly made up of water, taking up unnecessary space and weight in transit
The Alternatives
From refillable soap bottles made from recycled materials, to low water-waste soap bars, switching to our more eco-friendly alternatives can help reduce your impact in your kitchen. Many eco-friendly washing up liquids and soaps have options that are fragrance-free and made for sensitive skin. Alternatives tend to be cruelty-free as well, making them more suitable if you're vegan.
Washing Up Liquid
Eco-friendly washing up liquid can be packaged in recycled plastic and should also be recyclable after use. That being said, we'd always recommend you refill your bottle if possible to save on waste.

Washing Up Tabs & Powders
Alternative washing up soap in tab or powder form are usually plastic-free and ready to drop into a refillable container of water. This reduces the amount of unnecessary water shipped in bottles as well as taking up less space in your home. Some brands can be refilled locally at a zero waste shop.
