Panasonic Turns Green

Multi Purpose LubricantPanasonic, a commercial electronics company, has started to thrust forward with its new green initiatives, seeking to become the leader in eco friendly electronics by the year 2018. Their goal is to spring forward, plan ahead for the growing eco movement, and to implement ecological incentives which are available commercially throughout North America. Their goals also seem to comprise of making an entirely sustainable circuit or life cycle of their products, so that from material acquisition to customer purchase, the entire process is sustainable and renewable. This is, in theory, a wonderful idea, because it would make them a mean predator in the commercial market, due to being able to lower their prices and make higher quality electronics available to the thrifty consumer.

Are other electronics companies turning green? As a matter of fact, yes, they are, but this occurs to varying degrees. For instance, some companies merely want the reputation, whereas Panasonic is sinking a large financial investment into their eco operations. Some electronics companies simply looking to reduce waste and save money, and happen to enjoy the advertising benefit of their responsible behavior while they are at it. Panasonic is sinking a large amount of money into training highly qualified green teams to plan and implement a complete cycle of ecological development to emerge from the company. In other words, they appear to be taking their current capital, as a business, and sinking it into a much larger, more global, and more eco friendly idea. In a sense, they are one company which seems to be transforming themselves into a much larger and entirely different company altogether. It may be interesting to watch their new production develop over the next decade. Any company which is this committed to our environment should definitely be watched.

Envirosafe Solutions is just as committed to producing 100% eco friendly chemical solutions. Our industrial strength lubricants, degreasers and disinfectants are all top of the line, and our eco friendly glass cleaner and rust remover are both green and effective.

Minimalism and Why It Exists

Fabric Conditioner, Laundry Powder, Dust SuppressorMinimalism has existed to streamline design concepts and to bring clarity to decorating, design and engineering. Minimalist ideas can be some of the most powerful design concepts on earth, and they can convey strong messages. Minimalism is characterized by open planes, minimally broken or completely unbroken lines, small detail, few objects of interest, reduce furniture, and clean shapes and forms. Color can be creatively use in minimalism, but is strongest with only one accent color, two at the most, within a palette of grayscale or monochromatic neutrals.

Ecologically speaking, minimalism inspires and encourages a responsible, clear-cut, earth-friendly lifestyle, and it can be use quite powerfully to show appreciation for all the our beloved earth has to offer us. Eco friendly features of minimalism include renewable materials, minimalist décor which is in itself conservative and uses fewer resources, and art inspiration from thousands of ecological inspirations, including the ocean, living green things, and even animals and owner-pet affection.

In our efforts to bring eco friendly behavior to our whole earth, minimalism has been used extensively in corporate redecorating, green initiatives, and to signify a cleaner, more renewable company to potential clientele. Even private offices and cubicles are being decorated with minimal styling and are a great deal more tasteful for it. Home makers often find that too busy of a style within their home will actually lead to clutter and more unclean habits, and minimalism actually helps deter this behavior. Minimalism has served many purposes over the decades, and as an art form, it continues to set a fine example today for clean, clutter-free, drama-free lifestyles. While many individuals enjoy the warmer tones and styles of more traditional artwork and design, minimalism cools down the energy of a specified area and helps to reduce over-thinking and obsessive mental traits. Minimalist artwork tends to be abstract and suggests forms and ideas through line and basic shapes. Apartments can be decorated in true minimalist by reducing furniture, clearing open floor space and open counter space, using lines and small curves to finish the artwork and using monochromatic color schemes.

Eco friendly design is not just reserved to the art world. Envirosafe Solutions has used eco friendly design to create safe, earth friendly products, like laundry solutions, radiator liquids, and absorbent spill kits. Call Envirosafe Solutions today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Green Resolutions for the New Year

Environmental Cleaning Products, Solvent-Free DegreaserEvery year, people from all around the world make New Year’s resolutions to help them kick start a better time and more growth in their lives. What could be better than setting goals to help improve our beautiful planet? Here are some good suggestions:

1. Take better care of your own health

Making sure that your food items, clothing items, and chemicals that you buy are eco friendly will improve your health. When you are not regularly exposed to harsh cleaning products and synthetic clothing, your skin and tissues are able to breathe much better.

2. Reduce the pollution around your yard and garage

When you use alternative fuels in your gas tanks and clean your garage with safe, biodegradable cleaning products, then you are breathing less pollution and exposing your plants and children to less pollution.

3. Teach your offspring about how they can help keep our planet clean

Children are very conscious of their surroundings and any instruction they receive on the welfare of the planet will be greeted with open arms. Help them to understand how recycling, biodegradable materials, and organic farming are all part of staying healthy and preserving our beautiful environment.

4. Try out new eco friendly products

Get your whole family involved with this one. Schedule time out of your week to buy and try out new environmentally friendly products in order to determine quality and efficacy. When your children find green products which are also effective, they can see how it is possible to have the best of both worlds. Be sure to compare and contrast to get the best product. Once a month, you can plan field trips for the whole family to visit eco friendly companies or manufacturing plants to see how this is done.

5. Be inventive

Sometimes, plenty of biodegradable materials are right in front of you, but they all seem to be disposable or of a temporary nature. Look around your home, office and yard for some ideas for how to use sustainable materials in your decorating, home repair, furniture construction, etc. Think outside of the box.

6. Plant or invest in a garden

This can be in your own back yard, or it can even be a community garden. With this, you can start producing your own food and you can learn hands on how to change out soil and nutrients after harvesting and preparing for a new batch. This will give you a new appreciation for local farmers and you may wish to buy locally in the future.

New Year’s resolutions do not have to be filled with pressure and a need to use huge amounts of self discipline. You can take a relaxed attitude toward your individual learning style and you are far more likely to retain what you have learned.

Envirosafe Solutions offers eco friendly detergents, fuel treatments, and degreasers. Check out our website today, or call us: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Earth and Ocean

Dishwasher Rinse Aid, Fabric ConditionerThe lost city of Atlantis is said to be real and is said to be fictional. People have claimed that it is a real sunken city, and others have claimed that it is a mythical city where humans were actually able to interact with the ocean world and were perhaps able to breathe underwater and so on. Unfortunately, the majority of humanity today is only aware of the ability to live on the earth, and this means that we have to preserve what resources we have available to us. Interestingly, the ocean is a large part of how we are able to acquire our resources, but we often take it for granted because we do not in fact live there.

Oceanography has been studying extensive data on how things like global warming and carbon emissions have been affecting the temperatures of the ocean and therefore all of the living creatures and plants in the ocean. Sedimentary erosions and developments, which have to do with the movement of earth and rock both above and below the water, affect the PH levels of the water in certain areas of the ocean, creating certain current patterns in the water.

However, humans have always had an outside impact on large portions of the ocean waters. Accidental oil spills, coral transportation based upon offshore metal structures, absence and presence of algae and living organisms which attract fish and then are gone and deprive the fish of needed oxygen, and living creatures being affected by pharmaceuticals being dumped in the oceans and causing morphing of certain genes and also causing the inability to reproduce, which in turn causes the death of many eco systems and endangered species. This is obviously a large problem, and much of it is ignored because, in essence, Atlantis does not exist and it is extremely difficult to understand how this is affecting humans directly without being much closer to the problem. Fortunately, environmental awareness groups are doing their best to bring this to our attention and make it more personal.

Envirosafe Solutions is steadfastly working day and night to do our part for the greater good of the earth by offering completely eco friendly and often septic safe products for your home and industrial use. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Compare Costs Between Building and Buying

Dishwasher Rinse Aid, Fabric ConditionerWhether you are opening a store front, opening new locations for your company, or you are simply buying a new home for you and your family, it is always worth it to compare the cost between building a new structure or buying a new structure that is already made. This decision has financial and ecological repercussions, and therefore must be studied very carefully.

Often building costs exceed projected cost, since more labor and materials and time are often required. This means that, when building a structure, you are very likely to exceed your set budget and exceed the amount of time set by you and your contractor to finish the project. This is normal and should be reflected in your personal financial documentation, not to mention ways of preventing this from happening as much as possible.

Buying may take a long time if the owner cannot be contacted regularly or if closing on a house or building requires extensive rebuilding or innovation in order to bring it up to code. Although building a structure is considered to take a great deal more time, buying one may also take up time which you had not planned on, so it is a good idea to give yourself some leeway there, especially if this is a residence.

Building with a reliable contractor can save you money in the end, for it can reduce annual heating, cooling and electrical costs which will add up over time. This is a good reason to go with a steady reliable contractor who has a reputation for finishing the job on time and under budget, and who also is experienced with installing eco friendly and cost reducing barriers, insulation, openings, and heat circulation systems. This will not only be healthy for the planet, but it will make you more self sufficient in the long run.

Clearly, your impact upon the earth when buying or building is also affected by what sort of materials you use (reclaimed, sustainable, etc.), how everything is installed, and how you make long-term plans for your structure. Envirosafe Solutions also offers sustainable solutions, because we are committed to helping you maintain whatever structure you obtain with earth friendly renewable products. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Check Up On Your Eco Solutions Team

Fabric Conditioner, Laundry PowderMany large companies have eco solutions teams to help them keep their operations earth friendly and to reduce waste and their impact upon the environment. However, there are many ways in which even that move may not fully pan out into the full potential that it could be. What are some ways to round off your company’s eco solutions team and what do we mean by telling you to check up on them?

Not all divisions of your company are synergizing. With every company, you will find that there are divisions or sections of the business which are not quite as in sync with the rest of the business as you believe they should be. When this happens, organize an education of each division by their comrades so that everyone understands their own jobs and the responsibilities of others, and everyone is working together, instead of apart.

Especially make sure that the accounting department and the eco solutions teams are working together and are aware of each other’s initiatives. This is especially important regarding any tax breaks or cost reduction or financial incentives which are being handed out by your local or federal government at this time. If the account department is aware of your eco friendly efforts, then more money can be saved, more of our wonderful planet can be sustained, and more revenue can remain within your business.

Make sure that your eco solutions team is modern. This is especially important if new incentives have recently been introduced or if new technology is renovating how companies, especially large international companies, are reducing cost, reducing fuel and emissions, and increasing self sufficiency. One of the most important reasons to remain self sufficient is to maintain a durable competitive advantage over your competition, i.e. other businesses in your industry and competing industry markets.

Use discretion. Keep an eye on your eco solutions team’s progress and planning for new agendas. This is not to say that you should require notification about every small step, but talk to individual employees, especially management, about current projects once a week, and make sure that you are being kept in the loop on a fairly regular basis.

Envirosafe Solutions offers one more way to keep your company as effective and as eco friendly as you can make it. Our eco friendly waste removal kits, absorbent spill kits, industrial degreasers, and industrial strength disinfectants are available for shipping today. Call us today and ask us about our 30 day money back guarantee: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Brazilian Forestation and Agriculture

Environmental Cleaning ProductsDeforestation occurs when a wooded area is so overworked by lumber mills, work groups, and development that the trees or forested area does not return to its natural state and is unable to achieve equilibrium and regain its previous growth or even intermediate growth. Brazil is finding that, while many of its parts are becoming deforested, they are becoming so because of the need to continue and grow agricultural endeavors. While Brazil’s economy is booming off the local agricultural prosperity, this deforestation is causing concern among many native and foreign citizens. Which is best, to preserve Brazilian rainforests or to preserve the country’s agricultural integrity?

This is a decision which affects any city developer or wildlife preserve or fundamentalist. The process of balancing human endeavors with natural organic growth and the resulting wildlife fluctuations is something which is decided constantly, from day to day, and any decision made will affect focus groups in different ways. What can be hoped to be achieved when humans themselves almost seem to get in the way of this precious preservation of our natural resources? What can be done about this and what is a good mentality to adopt when dealing with these decisions?

Rather than shakily attempting to achieve some sort of arbitrary balance between the two worlds, it may be a good idea to simply attempt to merge them. Many shopping malls have been built around a famous tree or endanger plant, many resorts build guard rails which separate visitors from the local wildlife, and many native plants fruit the best under agricultural conditions. It is a merging of the two worlds, taking the best of each, and blending them successfully together which will achieve the highest amount of adaptability from animals, humans, and wildlife. It is this mentality “both,” rather than “either/or” which can make new ecological developments possible.

Envirosafe Solutions seeks to bring in our eco friendly glass cleaners, disinfectants, and hand sanitizers for your benefits, successfully blending human ingenuity and earth’s natural resources. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Bamboo Cathedrals: Green Fine Art

Dishwasher Powder, Rust RemoverThe bamboo cathedral in question is, in fact, not a cathedral, although the shape is similar and thus it acquired the name. It is a cacao bar manufacturer in Indonesia, the first chocolate bar maker of its kind in that country, and the entire operation uses only 50% of non-renewable energy. In fact, the owner pulled in an old factory grinder that used to grind cacao beans and he now uses it for his cacao beans. The 50% of renewable energy comes from vegetable oil, and he is looking to install some type of solar rooftop device which will power the plant entirely and take his entire operation off of the grid. Talk about renewable resources.

The operation is in Indonesia and, when watching the video, it seems as if the building is not exactly air-tight, so it begs the question of how much rain the area receives and whether or not there are inner paneling which can be sealed up in times of wetness. The CNN report did not cover that, but the building does seem to offer well ventilated areas and plenty of dry sunshine to warm and help the grinding process stay consistent. The video may have also been showing the building during construction, which would have definitely shown air in between the basket-weaving effect of the bamboo walls.

The owner of the cacao bar company discusses with the CNN reporter how his operation is as eco friendly as possible, and how he used new and innovative ideas and simply implemented them, even though his company is the first of its particular kind in Indonesia. Apparently, cacao is shipped out as a raw material or as a finely ground powder. His company completes the bars on site, so that more local resources are used and his products are as high quality as possible.

Envirosafe Solutions offers eco friendly chemical cleaning and rust removing solutions, not to mention eco friendly lubricant and fuel treatments. Our entire operation is a eco friendly as we can make it, and all of our products come with a 30 day money back guarantee, so that you can test them out and make sure that we live up to our high standards of production.

Are Wooden Skyscrapers Safe?

Environmental Cleaning ProductsAre wooden skyscrapers safe? This will almost be the newest global question, since a brand new cacao factory in Indonesia built its very first headquarters made entirely out of bamboo, and half powered by plant oil. In the near future, they will be using solar paneling to take their manufactured bars completely off the grid. Their bamboo structure is very strong and resilient, and they have no reason to think that will not last for many years into the future. So how possible is construction with bamboo instead of steel? Can bamboo really replace such a high commodity quality, light and affordable commodity such as steel? This is an excellent question.

The foundations of skyscrapers must be poured deep, since so much leverage is required to counterbalance the top end. A certain amount of flexibility is required in the structure in order to make it wind resistant. Just as grass bends before the wind, instead of breaking, so skyscrapers have a certain amount of flexibility built into their structure to give them or rather allow them movement if they need it.

Michael Green, an engineer consulted about the feasibility of using bamboo instead of steel, confirmed the definite possibilities which are here. For example, he listed bamboo as being very strong and the larger bamboo plants are quite tough and resilient, being very difficult to break. It is like having a large number of long wood fibers clumped together. It may be easier to shape and cut than steel, but it is extremely difficult to break, while maintaining the flexibility of movement which is so necessary for tall buildings like skyscrapers. Bamboo is considered to be the construction material of the future because of how fast it grows and how sustainable it is. While plans for much larger buildings are being drawn up in Vancouver, so far the largest bamboo building today is only five stories high. However, new innovations and ideas for making this the new steel of the future are already in play.

Envirosafe Solutions offers cleaning, degreasing, and problem removing chemicals for both your industrial and domestic needs. We offer eco friendly solutions for concrete and steel, as well as alternative building materials, and our products come with a 30 day money back guarantee. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Alaska and Oil

Fabric Conditioner, Laundry PowderThe debate continues in the United States over what to do about potential oil and gas production in Alaska. This is a steep endeavor in the first, due to leasing so much land which is currently protected for the sake of several species of wildlife, and due to how expensive laying so much pipe line would be. Fortunately, neither side has gained a permanent upper hand as of yet, since this is such a sensitive issue and has the potential for benefitting both humans and wildlife in the future. What are the two issues at stake here, and how can the decision be best agreed upon?

To begin with, if Alaska does indeed possess vast amounts of oil and gas resources, then this would be a worthy investment, especially considering U.S. issues with oil production, shipment and prices that are affecting them today. However, one must also consider the enormous expense of laying all of that pipe line, and whether or not the resources would be better than the money spent, if the two would balance each other out, or if more money would put into the endeavor than benefits received from it. Unfortunately, this information is not as readily accessible, since it requires engineering and the work of private oil prospecting companies to determine the actual cost of production and shipment.

On the other side of the issue lies the preservation of an incredibly vast expanse of Alaskan wildlife, water areas, and natural beauty which is considered one of the last frontiers for exploration and preservation available in the U.S. today. Some of the biggest oil drilling and rigging operations exist in Texas, the second largest state in the U.S., and these have had little impact on the immediate environment surrounding the drilling operations, but this is a different eco system, altogether. Much of Texas’ resources lie in dry plains and desert-like conditions, and this contributes to the hardiness of the local eco system regarding these drilling operations.

Envirosafe Solutions offers heavy duty industrial degreaser, which is also eco friendly and safe for our environment, and we would love to hear more of your thoughts on this subject. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Green Jeans

Dishwasher Rinse Aid, Fabric ConditionerThe luxury magazine, Robb Report, recently published a notification of a new, eco friendly jeans company which literally recycles old jeans, mixes the pulp from their recycled jeans with organic (and sustainable) cotton thread, and creates a very soft, slightly grainy, and very luxurious feeling “green” jean. The company is Nudie, and their Post Recycle Dry jeans are perfect for feeling casual, fashionable, and 100% eco friendly, all at the same time. The jeans are a limited edition (and numbered) set, five hundred in total, and may be a trial run to see if there is a market for this luxury jean that is so earth friendly.

This concept is an interesting one. Many companies are starting up which are entirely earth friendly and create sustainable cotton clothing. Most of this clothing is likewise expensive, but the prices are dropping as more and more people are insisting that the fashion industry make eco friendly and sustainable clothing available to the mass market. Many ecologically conscious people are outraged that first-world companies are still using cheap labor from third-world countries to reduce costs, both depriving the local economy of jobs and revenue, and exploiting unsafe working conditions or terms overseas. However, sustainable materials, such as cotton and hemp, can be grown and manufactured locally, and sold globally to individuals who are willing to pay a little more. If this practice becomes even more widespread, as with all new innovations, the more the price will drop and lower-middle class citizens will be able to buy sustainable, organic clothing which supports earth friendly practices.

As with many enterprises, the consumer holds more power than they believe they possess. After all, the entire market is based upon the needs and desires of the consumer, and as long as fashion promotes “green” clothing, the consumer will demand what editorials tell them looks good. Advertisements do not have to be detrimental or cause problems to self esteem or someone’s view of their current income. Advertisements can actually serve the eco friendly companies which exist today, making them visible, common, and therefore, less costly.

Envirosafe Solutions offers earth friendly laundry detergent, in both powder and liquid form, and fabric softener for your eco friendly clothing. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Eco-PERCH

Environmental Cleaning ProductsArchitizer, a highly rated and globally read architecture innovation blog, recently did a cover story and pictures on Eco-PERCH, an eco friendly, pre-fabricated one family home which can be delivered and set up in a tourism or travel site within just a matter of a few simple days. This is, of course, subject to site preparation, but this is a convenient, aesthetic and eco friendly solution to the needs of the eco tourism sector, especially in instances where families wish to vacation for months at a time, or have a summer residence set up to spend time away from their busy lives.

College students are the latest and most diversified unit of the eco tourism sector, attracting any type of student from liberal arts majors to design engineers. In many cases, the need for temporary or get-away reliable housing for the vacationing student or the research graduate holed up with their books is more necessary than just a small desire. Attracting, and making eco friendly pre-fabricated housing available to, college students is a major step in ecological development, for this is building up the interest of future generations who have the techniques, skills and knowledge to make a sustainable earth an actual reality. In many cases, educated young adults are tempted with lower quality project design and not as many opportunities, since they may not be a target audience for donations and funding. They are, however, the target audience for actually completing the work and making completely sustainable living a reality.

Architizer shows pictures of Eco-PERCH’s pre-fabricated housing, both on the ground and off the ground, showing that the houses can be modified for terrain and individual tastes. Indoor views of the house show simple but complete living situations, where the accommodations are made from recycled or sustainable materials, and the waste disposal and heating and cooling are built efficiently into the house, without using excess energy.

Envirosafe Solutions attracts both experienced business partners and young professionals, since our technology is both practical and eco safe. We specialize in earth friendly soil treatments, fuel treatments, radiator liquids, and sanitizers. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Eco Friendly Holidays

Dishwasher Rinse Aid, Fabric ConditionerFor the earth conscious individual or family, taking a holiday may seem like an expensive and unnecessary waste of natural resources. However, there are options available to you and yours when you wish to preserve our planet and recreate at the same time.

1. Limit carbon footprint through use of public transportation

Bus systems, trains, subways and ferries all can be taken to and through scenic areas, around an ancient city, and as part of tourist groups. They are also a great way to find out more about the local area, as well as the natural resources thereof.

2. For extra altruism points: go on a volunteer holiday

Volunteer holidays are mostly designed for couples, but individuals and families can also participate. Helping out a local area, serving the residents, participating in construction projects, and installing community necessities are all things which green-hearted holidayers can do. In fact, many honeymooners do this in order to start their life together in service and submission, and often grow closer through shared work and efforts to improve the lives of others.

3. Stay in green luxury

Many hotels and holiday resorts are designed to accommodate eco friendly living. They use all sustainable materials in their construction, format and design, including materials for sleeping and recreating. In addition to this, environmentally friendly hotels may also prohibit motorized vehicles or petrol consuming products on site, in order to maintain their goal.

4. There is nothing quite like camping in the great outdoors

Nothing will inspire you more than spending a holiday outdoors, and nothing will give you more respect for natural habitats. Be sure to follow park rules when camping in a national park, and be sure to follow all guidelines regarding wild animals. Pack accordingly. Always make sure to bring biodegradable waste items on your camping trip and clean up your site after eating, or it will attract wildlife which may wish to feast on you next!

Green holidaying is a definite possibility. Whether you are on holiday or are staying at home, Envirosafe Solutions offers quality fuel treatments, lubricants and radiator liquids for your transportation needs. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Eco Friendly Museums

Rust Converter, Dishwasher PowderEcological safety and preservation is not just a new inventive technology. Being ecologically sound is an art form of keeping what we have and getting rid of what we no longer want. Just as there are museums devoted to art, music, torture, specific periods of time, machinery and petroleum/oil, there are museums and exhibition devoted to ecology. You can learn about different periods of time when ecology developed further, and you can learn how common household items which we use today improve over a decade or a century in the past. These are great learning experiences and a great way to immerse yourself in new and old ideas concerning ecological development.

The Living Museum – San Francisco

This bubble-shaped museum in San Francisco, California has a flora covered roof that acts effectively as insulation and as ventilation in one. Home to an aquarium, a planetarium and a living rainforest with free flying birds, this museum builds a deep appreciation for interaction with wildlife, plants, and our environment, not to mention the education you can get there.

Museum of Science and Industry – Chicago

The Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, Illinois has a wonderful exhibit on its grounds, called The Smart Home. This exhibit shows an ordinary home, made of recycled and recovered materials from old government offices, and features new and innovative ways to live eco friendly in the twenty-tens. Guided tours are available for extra charge, outside of museum entry fee.

Zayed National Museum – Saadiyat Island

The Zayed National Museum on Saadiyat Island, Abu Dhabi is extraordinarily made, featuring flexible, moving wings which allow the building to be ventilated and save on both heating and air conditioning. The structure itself is a landmark and gives the skyline an amazing and dramatic flourish.

Museum Victoria – Victoria

The Museum Victoria in Victoria, Australia houses a deeply rich variety of ecological studies, including extensive marine taxonomy. Taxonomy is the study of classification of organisms, and Victoria Museum has a vast collection of marine invertebrates, crustaceans, worms and fish and also studies how these creatures change over time and how ocean projects along the coasts of Australia affect marine life and sustainability.

The study of ecology is one in which one enters a world of former documentation and future invention in order to understand how changes and emerging patterns affect earth ecosystems which we wish to keep intact. Envirosafe Solutions distributes eco friendly and safe dishwashing liquid and powder, industrial strength degreasers, and septic safe toilet treatments. Call us today: (+61) 1300 88 90 70.

Green Home Keeping

Green home keeping is such a beneficial way of keeping your family and our planet healthy. From laundry detergent to dishwasher fluid and from disinfectants to sanitizers, your home is filled with harsh chemicals which you and your family may use even on a daily basis. While chemical compounds are good and can be used effectively to keep your home in working condition, it is a pretty good idea to check out the labels and warnings on the back of your bottles and packages. Chances are that prolonged contact with these chemicals causes damage and if that’s the case, then perhaps short-term contact with your body (not to mention your plumbing!) may also not be as beneficial as it could be.

Respiratory problems in children

A study done on household chemicals describes how contact, especially prolonged contact, with chemicals can cause respiratory, breathing and wheezing problems in children, particularly from infancy to the age of seven years old.

Green chemicals can help through many methods

For instance, chemicals on the floor can be touched by playing children, or even ingested by infants or pets. Chemical residue on counters, lavatories and tabletops are no less dangerous, especially for toddlers who frequently pick up or touch objects and then put them in their mouths. Chemical irritants on otherwise normal clothes can cause rashes or abrasions, particularly in family members who suffer from even a minor allergy. Eco friendly household chemicals can reduce this damage and reduce the likelihood that children or adults will be affected by ordinary cleaning products.

Envirosafe Solutions has many eco friendly cleaning products from which to choose

For your laundry needs, we carry fabric conditioner, as well as hard water laundry liquid and powder. For the kitchen, we have dishwasher liquid and powder, as well as a rinse aid, and a commercial kitchen degreaser.
