Don't Be Fooled by Recycled Plastic

The Greenwashing Myth

We've all seen them - the water bottles and Liquid laundry Bottles  proudly proclaiming "Made with Recycled Plastic!" But is this badge of honor all it's cracked up to be? The truth is, recycled plastic might be a step in the right direction, but it's not the environmental hero companies make it out to be. Here's why:

• The Recycling Myth: Only around 9% of plastic actually gets recycled. That means the vast majority, even plastic labeled "recycled," ends up in landfills or worse, our oceans. Companies touting recycled content often neglect to mention this inconvenient fact.

• Landfill Lullaby: Even recycled plastic has a finite lifespan. After multiple cycles of being reprocessed, plastic degrades and becomes unusable. This means that even the most "eco-friendly" plastic packaging will eventually wind up in a landfill, taking hundreds of years to decompose.

So, what's a conscious consumer to do? Here are some tips:

• Reduce: Before you reach for plastic, consider if there's a reusable alternative. Think cloth bags, refillable water bottles, and metal containers.

• Reuse: Get creative! Repurpose old plastic containers for storage or find them a new life through craft projects.

• Recycle Right: Check your local guidelines for what plastics can actually be recycled in your area. Contamination is a major issue, so only recycle what's accepted.

Don't be fooled by greenwashing. By understanding the limitations of recycled plastic, we can make smarter choices for ourselves and the planet. Remember, the most eco-friendly plastic is the one we don't use at all!

The Green Alternative: Ditch the Plastic, Embrace Laundry Sheets and Soap Tablets!

Both options leave your clothes and hands squeaky clean, minus the plastic footprint.

Simple, Convenient, and Effective: Don't be fooled by the lack of plastic – these alternatives pack a powerful punch. Laundry sheets come in a variety of formulas for different washing needs, and hand soap tablets create a rich lather that cleanses effectively.
