The Ecological Footprint of Cleaning – Redefined
Less water. Less CO2. No microplastics. Backed by data.
What Really Matters: The Entire Life Cycle
Sustainability is not decided by the material alone – but across the entire life cycle: raw material, production, use, laundry & logistics, disposal.
Water Consumption: Where Classic Systems Fail
litres of water per wash cycle (25 mops)
Raw Materials Determine the Footprint
Cotton
- Extremely high irrigation demand
- Pesticides & fertilisers
- Global transport routes
- Environmental & health burden
Wood Fibre
- 10-20x less water consumption
- Regional sourcing (EU)
- Renewable resource
- Biodegradable
less water in production
CO2 Emissions: A Massive Difference
less CO2 emissions
The Hidden Problem: Microplastics
Synthetic textiles release microfibres with every wash – a major contributor to global microplastic pollution.
