IT’S A TEAM EFFORT

Little changes families make move us one step closer to a clean, green lifestyle. Chux® suggests some simple ways families can protect the planet

-

Little by little many of us are making changes to our daily habits and consumer practices which collective­ly, over time, will help to make a significan­t difference to our planet. It’s fantastic that we’re becoming more future-focused, and the great news is our kids are cut from the same cloth. Although, day to day, they may not seem to notice the mess they’re making, on a broader level they’re more than capable of absorbing the concept of clean living – and have more than enough energy to help us put it into practice.

We all want a great environmen­t for future generation­s to enjoy so it makes perfect sense to include your kids in conversati­ons and decisions as you make simple changes to help protect our planet.

“Made from natural and renewable resources, the cloths can be reused over and over again”

OPT FOR LONGER LASTING PRODUCTS

Your plastic bags have been replaced by fabric bags – and you may even remember to bring them when you shop – but how are you going with your takeaway coffees? Go the extra mile by bringing your own travel mug.

INVEST YOUR TIME AND ENERGY

It’s not all about the products you buy, it’s also about what you do with your time. Why not spend some family time upcycling furniture or taking part in a beach clean-up? These projects not only teach your kids to value their belongings and surroundin­gs but also help them to take ownership of the environmen­tal purpose behind these activities.

KEEP CLEANING CLEAN

Cleaning products can be natural and long-lasting too. The Chux® Environmen­tal product range still delivers the high quality Chux® product performanc­e promise, with Chux® Biodegrada­ble Absorbent Cloths absorbing up to 12 times their own weight in liquid! Made from viscose cellulose and bamboo fibres – 100 percent natural and renewable resources – they’re also machine washable for reuse.

COMPLETE THE CYCLE

You may well be buying recyclable products, and disposing of these items correctly, but are you choosing items made from recyclable materials in the first place? Chux® Non-Scratch Scourer Sponges are highly effective and are made from recycled PET bottle fibres.
