The Benefits of Green, Non-Toxic Cleaning 🏡🧼

The Benefits of Green, Non-Toxic Cleaning 🏡🧼

As a parent or caregiver, you have a lot on your plate. Maintaining schedules, lifestyles and healthy habits, all while providing an environment that is safe and sanitary. That said, it can be easy to snatch the first thing you see on the shelf to help with grunge and grime. But have you ever thought about what harsh, toxic chemicals are left on your surfaces? Here are the top benefits to using green, non-toxic cleaning products so you replace dirt and debris with purity and peace.

1. Air Quality

Mainstream cleaning products use harsh chemicals which wind up being released into the environment. This affects the air quality for you and those you care for; children, pets and significant others.

Green products reduce pollution to our waterways and the air, while also minimizing your impact on ozone depletion and global warming. Green products are made with fewer smog-producing chemicals which support a better environment, on top of the fact that many green products are mostly recyclable packaging which minimizes waste.

When buying cleaners that leave your surfaces – and air – cleaner, consider an organic certified option like our Bentley Organic Washing Up Liquid, which is made up of plant extracts and is proven to kill 99.9% germs. It’s biodegradable too which helps keep your conscious clean too!

2. Safe for Children and Pets

From tiny hands to playful paws, we all know that our children and pets can get into all sorts of mischief and messes. We certainly want safe surfaces for them to play and explore.

Oftentimes, cleaning products will be formulated with bleach, sulphates or phosphates. While these ingredients do help with kill germs, they also have been linked to harmful effects on laboratory rats including skin irritation, depression, laboured breathing, diarrhoea and even death.

While we want our furry friends and tiny tots to enjoy their toys, nearly everything goes in their mouths. Hence, it is imperative to be mindful of what’s going on the toys we are “cleaning”.

Fortunately, Bentley Organic’s Certified Organic Toy Sanitiser keeps those microbes at bay with plant extracts that are gentle on everything but the germs.

3. Artificial Fragrances

People are becoming more aware and mindful of the harsh effects cleaning chemicals are having on their skin and internal organs once inhaled.  They're going back to basics and looking for greener ways to clean. To hear our experts tell it, the benefits speak for themselves.

The stench of strong chemical odours is usually a dead giveaway that our bodies are rejecting the reek.  Many non-toxic household cleaners include pleasant natural essential oils and plant-based derivatives; your nose knows it’s a better option.

Take into account the smell of sanitizers when washing your hands regularly throughout the day.  The alcohol can dry out your hands, causing your skin to crack and further concerns for the passing of germs and infection. Bentley Organic’s Alcohol-free Moisturising Hand Sanitiser for Mother & Babies can kill 99.9% of germs and bacteria, all while featuring anti-bacterial properties that aren’t harmful to your (or baby’s) skin.

For a refreshing organic twist, try Bentley Organic's  Lemon Hand Sanitizer; Proven to kill 99.9% of germs including E.Coli and Listeria, and has biodegradable properties, all while boasting a fresh citrus scent.

Despite decades of advertising campaigns convincing people that they need the harshest, strongest chemical to get their home and hands clean, the truth is that there are many alternatives that are equally effective and much safer for you and your loved ones.
