Home cleaning products that are good for the earth & look stylish too

October 19, 2021 Leave a Comment

The home cleaning scene has rapidly expanded of late with a range of cleaning products that are not only eco-conscious but look fabulous too. From ranges designed to eliminate single-use plastic to plant-based cleaning solutions made from Australian native oils, these are our top picks.

Compagnie de Provence Fig of Provence liquid soap: Made from vegetables oils from Provence, this liquid soap comes in a chic glass pump bottle that can be refilled with the corresponding refill bottle. There’s a variety of scents to choose including fig, black tea, cotton flower and patchouli. We love the bold typography on the front. $39.95.

Zero-Co: Designed to make it easy for you to cut out single-use plastic, this range not only looks great (such fun colours!) but it’s soft on the environment too. Each starter kit comes with a a set of dispensers (made from ocean waste plastic), a set of refill pouches (made from recycled plastic) and a reply-paid postage satchel. When you’ve emptied the refill pouches into their dispensers just pop them in the post and Zero-Co will refill them and return them to you. Genius!

Tangent GC Clover sportswear detergent: Made in Sweden this product is specially made for synthetics or blended fabrics making it ideal for for the sports-enthusiasts among us (activewear anyone?). It’s also organic, cruelty and fossil fuel free. $35.



Koala Eco: Packaged in 100 percent post-consumer-recycled plastic bottles, this product line-up is free of synthetic fragrance and colouring, allergens and irritants and draws on the medicinal and therapeutic properties of Australian native plants. “Species such as eucalyptus, lemon myrtle and peppermint have natural antiseptic and astringent qualities and have been harvested for millennia by Australia’s Indigenous people,” says The Koala Eco co-founder Jess Bragdon. Available in many supermarkets across Australia we love the smell of this range.

The Dirt Company complete Laundry starter kit: Another eco-friendly, refillable option this company produces laundry cleaning products that good for your clothes, skin and planet – all while remaining affordable too. This kit comes with reusable and dose specific dispenser bottles (all full) and refill packs (made from a minimum of 30 per cent post industrial recycled waste) that can be returned (for free!) to be refilled. The brand will also throw in a 30 pack of their rust-proof stainless steel pegs. $91.25.

Dirt starter pack

Wash Wild: The sister company of Bondi Wash, this range is made from Australian native oils which are recognised for their anti-bacterial properties. Designed to be accessible to as many households as possible, while being free of nasty chemicals, this affordable starter pack is $35 and you can purchase refills too.

Quartz Clean: Designed to sanitise quartz surfaces while looking after them, this duo is perfect for the kitchen bench top. The Everyday Surface Cleaner is designed for everyday use (but of course!) and the Deep Clean Surface Cream for stubborn stains. The products contain nine pure and organic essential oils and fragrances include citrus, mint and eucalyptus. $34.50

Quartz Clean

Single Use Ain’t Sexy hand soap starter pack: Combining Australia’s first dissolvable hand soap tablet with a simple reusable glass bottle, we love this hand washing concept. All you do is fill the reusable bottle with water, add a tablet, pump the foam and wash your hands. Tablet refill packs are available when you run out. $29.70.

Plant-based cleaning brand Koala Eco breaks into the US
“We were constantly on the hunt for safe, affordable, toxic-free cleaning products that would not only make our home smell naturally fabulous but would actually work. We felt our sons, and…

When interior designer @sarah_yarrow was renovatin When interior designer @sarah_yarrow was renovating her 50s home to sell she was determined to move away from the cookie cutter flip to sell look and went for something warmer, paying homage to its roots.

"People are much more likely to connect with something that feels warm and friendly and that doesn’t feel like the home up the street, or the one that their friend has just bought. And once they connect, they usually pay more,” she said. Sarah believes people usually crave a homely feel but don’t know how to create it themselves

This family home is next level. Literally! A stee This family home is next level. Literally!

A steeply sloping block isn't a typical prerequisite when building a new home. But it was for Perth architect Sam Klopper and his family who desired an elevated balcony (hello roof terrace!) AND a back yard that was accessed from the living area. And wow, they sure made the best of it!

Take the tour on the homepage now. Via link in bio.

We've entered an exciting phase in our home: non-s We've entered an exciting phase in our home: non-synthetic rug land!

With two young boys, I've always advocated for the synthetic and easily scrub-cleanable rug! Now they're a bit older and observing the shoes-off and no-food-in-the-living-room rules, I thought it was time! And I'm in love with our bold new @castleryau Lorenzo Wool Rug.

You can't beat the luxurious look and feel of wool and I've also stepped outside my comfort zone with a design that stands out rather than blends in. Get me!

Can someone remind the kids about the keep-the-toys-in-the-playroom rule though?!

Would you be brave enough to go for a cream wool rug in your house?!

This rug is on display at Castlery's popup at Moore Park SupaCenta until October.
