Although many household cleaning products are branded with healthy cleaning labels, what many consumers fail to realize is that care for the environment goes beyond a bottled formula. Plastic packaging is another huge source of waste, but Jessica Alba's The Honest Company is on a mission to make cleaning a lot less harsh on homes and the planet.
With the Concentrate Refills for the herbal cleaning products, consumers are able to simply replenish the supply of a full-sized bottle by adding a portion of the cleaning product and diluting it with water. This system is used for all of The Honest Company's healthy cleaning products, from floor, bathroom and multi-surface cleaners to stain removers.
The Honest Company spells out that some of the benefits of choosing a Concentrate Refill over buying a full-sized product bottle include reducing water consumption, fossil fuel consumption, greenhouse gas emissions and packaging waste.
