Eco-Friendly Glass and Window Cleaners
For gleaming windows, you don’t need to buy toxic glass cleaners, there are far better brands on the market. Conventional brands contain ingredients that can cause skin irritation, dizziness and are harmful to aquatic life.
Use with SEEP plastic-free cleaning cloths and sponges (they make fair trade rubber gloves in eco packs). Read how to clean floors naturally (without harming spiders).

This brand is made with natural ingredients and Yorkshire water. At end of use, you can refill bottles at participating shops, or use the QR code to send back empties for washing and refilling, they are then sent back to you.
Where to recycle cleaning/laundry products
If you have some toxic products that you no longer wish to use, don’t pour them down the sink, as this can harm waterways. You can recycle empty containers with household waste. With bottles still containing product, your council should be able to collect via the hazardous waste department. The fact that this is where they should be taken, is good reason to switch to a more natural brand!
