Organic cleaning
We are more than a little used to having a whole chemical arsenal of
weapons at our disposal to remove the grime of everyday life. Advertisements
bombard us with the message that 'squeaky clean' perfection is the ultimate
household goal but is this really such a desirable state of affairs?
Some studies have formed a link between the rise of ultra-clean environments
and the incidence of asthma. It seems that we need bacteria as children
to build up an immunity to the world around us. Anti-bacterial agents
are killing the very things we need to be healthy. More than this, we
are filling our homes with chemical residues that we then breathe in or
absorb through our skin in quantities that would cause a public outcry
if they escaped from a chemical factory.
Cleaning your home to high standards need not rely on the chemical arsenal.
Salt, baking soda, white vinegar and fresh lemon juice will clean a house
cheaply and effectively. In reality, however, few of us would like to
preceed the chore of housework with a lemon squeezing session. Fortunately
a wide range of products that contain dramatically fewer noxious ingredients
are now available. Whilst most of these cannot be described as 'organic'
in the true sense of the word, they are much closer to the ideal than
standard products.
You can tell the difference immediately between 'mountain fresh additve
324b' and a citrus essential oil. Remember, the only way we are able to
smell something is if the chemical molecules enter our body!

The inherent properties of Bamboo fabric allow the production of the same products as cotton.
From bedding to nappies and cleaning cloths to towels Bamboo is more breathable than cotton, it's more absorbent than cotton but it dries as quickly, it's naturally antibacterial, it's softer to the touch yet it is more durable than cotton, and it's much more ecologically sustainable. It’s wonderful and we love it. We hope you do too! |
