Traditional Vs. Green (Eco-Friendly) Cleaning Products

We’ve all used conventional cleaning products and wondered what the ingredients on the label were. However, we don’t give it much thought after that.

Using green cleaning products instead of conventional products has advantages and disadvantages, and different types of cleaning products must be considered.

Green cleaning products can be difficult to come by. Some companies have pledged not to use knowingly harmful chemicals in their products, so these are the best products to buy if you want to clean environmentally.

Most green products advertise that they are environmentally friendly and do not contain harmful ingredients. Unlike some other products, they also list all ingredients on the label so you know exactly what’s in them.

Some “green” products, however, aren’t as green as they claim, so always read labels and avoid products that don’t disclose what’s in them.

Green Cleaning Products – Drawbacks

Green products are typically more expensive and require a little more muscle to achieve the same level of cleanliness as traditional products.

The only product that can compete is chlorine-based products such as bleach. However, these chemicals are not required for cleaning. They simply make the job easier.

Green Cleaning Products – Advantages

One of the many advantages of green cleaning is that, unlike traditional cleaning products, green products will not damage surfaces over time. They are also better for the environment if you are using something that will be flushed. Remember, what enters our water and food systems eventually returns to us!

They also have no negative effects if they come into contact with your skin or eyes by accident. In the long run, you are less exposed to toxins, which is better for your health.

What Can I Use To Clean My Home?

In general, you can clean everything in your house with baking soda and vinegar, which is completely safe for you and the environment.

Although it takes more time and willpower, it is one of a few low-cost alternatives to green cleaning products that is better for the environment than traditional chemical cleaning products.

But, like blogger Logan’s natural laminate floor cleaning solution, you can easily make a variety of green cleaning solutions at home!

A half-and-half mixture of baking soda and water is an excellent antacid for cleaning a variety of surfaces, while a half-and-half mixture of water and vinegar leaves a nice finish.
