The brand's Clean all-purpose disinfecting spray is sold as part of a kit that also contains healthy cleaning products like [laundry detergent](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/concentrated-laundry-product), soap, toilet bowl cleaners and furniture polish. Knowing that all of these supplies will run out at different times, Mrs. Jones' Soapbox sells products to replenish cleaning products in a clever way. The Clean Refill takes the form of a cleaning concentrate that only needs distilled water to be added to it. In order to be as kind as possible to the environment, [upcycled plastic bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grove-co-spring-collection) are sterilized and reused as product packaging. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.9/10 - Popularity: 8% | Activity: 12% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Upcycled Packaging:** Exploring the use of upcycled materials for product packaging creates an opportunity for eco-friendly innovation and reducing waste. - **Refillable Products:** Developing refillable cleaning concentrates that can be easily replenished with water promotes sustainability and reduces the need for single-use packaging. - **Product Kits:** Creating kits that combine multiple cleaning products encourages convenience for customers and provides opportunities for cross-selling and upselling. ### Where This Applies - **Cleaning Products:** The cleaning products industry can tap into the trend of upcycled packaging and refillable products to offer eco-friendly alternatives and attract environmentally-conscious consumers. - **Packaging:** The packaging industry has the opportunity to innovate by exploring ways to incorporate upcycled materials into product packaging and reduce reliance on single-use plastics. - **E-commerce:** The e-commerce industry can benefit from the trend of product kits by offering bundled cleaning product packages, providing convenience for customers and driving sales. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Powder-to-Gel Washing Liquids](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/homethings.md) - [Biodegradable Scent-Free Refills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/complete-athome-refill-station.md) - [Refillable Aluminum Cleaning Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cleancult-2.md) - [Plant-Based Surface Cleaners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saje-multisurface-cleaning-refill.md) - [Can-Based Cleaning Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clean-can-starter-kit.md) - [Chic Sustainable Cleaning Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/guests-on-earth.md) - [Sustainable Chemical Refill Centers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-friendly-chemical-co.md) - [Personal Care Refill Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zero-1.md) - [Aluminum Cleaning Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cleancult-aluminum-bottles.md)
