Why do we love OceanSaver cleaning products?
When you think about it, the majority of any traditional cleaning solution is water - and they come in plastic bottles that take up space in your cupboards. OceanSaver products take away the water and offer concentrated cleaning solutions in the form of a dissolvable tab which can easily fit through your letterbox. All you need to do is pop it in a bottle, give it a shake and you’re good to go! There’s something quite fun and fascinating about the process and we can really vouch for how effective these cleaning products are… We use them at Chimney Sheep HQ and at home and love how well they clean!
What makes OceanSaver products different from traditional cleaning products?
OceanSaver products are different to traditional cleaning products because they are completely plastic free.
Instead of all the typical cleaning supplies that come in disposable plastic bottles that get thrown in the bin when empty, OceanSaver products are specifically designed to help reduce single-use plastic waste in your cleaning routine.
For example, the OceanSaver EcoDrops are a concentrated cleaning solution that include everything you need to clean - except the water! They act as a convenient cleaning refill that you can dilute with water in your own empty bottles at home.
And, instead of strong, smelly cleaning solutions that use a whole bunch of nasty chemicals which irritate your skin, OceanSaver products are plant-based, non-toxic, vegan, cruelty-free and either biodegradable or 100% recyclable. That means they’re safe for the environment and safe to use around children and pets. Winner!
Do OceanSaver products clean as well as the normal cleaning products I buy?
You’ll be pleased to know that the OceanSaver EcoDrops have undergone independent testing to compare their cleaning efficacy to leading brands on the market. The results are astonishing: these products have proven to perform just as well or even better than the top brands they were tested against!
Just because these products are eco-friendly, it doesn’t make them any less effective than the normal cleaning products you’d usually buy. They’re the perfect replacement for your existing non-recyclable cleaning spray!
They’re great for removing stains, dirt and germs - just choose an OceanSaver product that’s right for the job. We have a whole range of purpose-built products: choose from the multi-purpose cleaner, bathroom cleaner, kitchen degreaser, antibacterial cleaner, glass cleaner, floor cleaner and disinfectant cleaner.
Are OceanSaver cleaning products safe for the environment?
Yes, OceanSaver products are safe for the environment. They are plastic free and designed to be biodegradable or 100% recyclable to reduce the use of plastic waste. The non-toxic formula of these environmentally friendly cleaning products also helps to ensure they have a minimal impact on the environment.
Are OceanSaver products safe for my family and pets?
When diluted, OceanSaver EcoDrops are safe for use around children and pets but we still recommend storing the EcoDrops and the diluted cleaning solution out of reach of children and pets.
How do I use Dish Washing Loofahs in my cleaning routine?
OceanSaver products are designed to act as effective eco-friendly alternatives to your traditional cleaning products.
Use these Dish Washing Loofahs to replace your plastic sponges when washing up and cleaning surfaces. Once wet, these non-scratch loofahs will soften into a flexible washing pad that’s soft enough for non-stick pans but strong enough to scrub away dirt and grime. Use them just like you would any other washing-up sponge: use with warm water and a dish washing soap or liquid to clean your pots, pans, cutlery and dishes. It’s probably best to soak and remove any baked-on foods, though!
Then, all you need to do is squeeze out the excess water, brush off any food particles and hang to dry from the cotton string loop to keep your loofah fresh between uses. You can also throw it in the washing machine.
Are OceanSaver cleaning products vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes, OceanSaver products are proudly vegan and cruelty-free. They are not tested on animals, and no animal-derived ingredients are used in their formulations.
How do OceanSaver products combat plastic waste?
OceanSaver products are designed to remove single-use plastic from your cleaning routine and help save the oceans from plastic pollution.
How, you ask? Firstly, the products offer excellent cleaning power with zero plastic waste (yes, that’s right - no plastic packaging or ingredients). They are plastic free and plant based, allowing you to simply add water at home to use. This way, you can reuse your empty trigger spray bottles and carry on reusing and refilling it to not only extend the serviceable life of the bottle, but also reduce the number of bottles that are produced in the long run - preventing plastic waste at the source.
The EcoDrops are also made from a water soluble and 100% biodegradable film that completely dissolves in water without generating any Micro or Nano plastics.
How can I stop using single-use plastic?
UK households generate over 140 million pieces of plastic by using more than 70 million cleaning sprays every year - and that doesn’t even include all the bleach bottles, toilet cleaners, disposable soap dispensers and other plastic bottles that are used across the country.
It’s estimated that more than 10 million tonnes of plastic are dumped into our oceans every year - half of this waste is single-use plastic and less than 9% actually gets recycled!
This is why it’s more important than ever to reduce our plastic consumption. To reduce your use of single-use plastic, you can start by switching to products like OceanSaver that are plastic-free and eco-friendly. You could also use reusable carrier bags and water bottles, too.
By making small changes in your daily routine such as switching to cleaning refills like the OceanSaver EcoDrops, you can reduce single-use plastic packaging and help combat the global plastic waste problem.
