Here’s an ecologically intelligent cleaning product that we can wrap our hands around and (pardon the pun), flip over…Sustainability guru William McDonough and his posse at McDonough Braungart Design Chemistry (MBDC) worked closely with Jason Foster, Founder and CEO of Replenish, and his development team to bring a more sustainable household cleaning product to market and it launches today.

replenish.jpg“Recycling is good for the environment – but it’s just not good enough.  We need to get to reuse.  By creating more sustainable products, we can help change our throw-away, disposable culture,” said Jason Foster, Founder and CEO of Replenish.  “We hope to bring Replenish’s innovative design to all forms of household liquids, and in turn inspire a reuse revolution with smart, sustainable products for happier homes and a healthier planet.”

Why we like it:

  • Replenish is made from 98% plant-based ingredients – natural, sustainable ingredients that are non-toxic to aquatic life, readily biodegradable and PH Neutral –  safe for you, home and planet
  • high-tech green chemistry reduces the amount of cleaner needed to rinse away soils by more than 50 percent
  • 100% made in the USA and has a supply chain radius of only 200 miles
  • works on all surfaces that can be cleaned with water
  • replace the Concentrate Pod, not the bottle…spray head & bottle are 100% recyclable (PET #1, the most recyclable plastic) and engineered to last about 3 years

How it works:

  • FLIP the bottle upside down and squeeze the Concentrate Pod until the measuring cup is full; (each pod makes 4 bottles = 64 ounces of cleaner)
  • Replenish3_1.jpgMix Local™ in your own water – using water from local sources to mix your own cleaner at home keeps delivery trucks off roads and tons of bottles out of landfills. (Of the 60 billion pounds of plastic discarded annually, only 7% is recycled and billions of pounds of plastic lands in landfills.)
  • CLEAN – start spraying
  • When Concentrate Pod depletes, recycle and buy a replacement (three scents:  Sun Lemon, Fresh Lavender and Green Tea)

Happy homes, healthier planet – it’s all good…things we strive for in our daily life.

Bottle costs $7.99; Replacement Pods cost $3.99, free shipping. find @ www.myreplenish.com
