Green Household




If, like many of us, you thought pollution came from outside, from car fumes, smoking chimneys, industrial manufacturing plants etc., then read on...

Did you know that British studies have found that the air inside your home can be up to 10x more toxic and polluted than the air outside, even in a busy city. Many of the hazardous chemicals, substances and materials used in our homes contribute to this e.g. cleaning fluids, bleaches, hydrocarbon aerosols, nail varnish (and remover), paint, carpet, pet treatments, MDF, pesticides in wood treatments to name but a few.

Natural Cleaning Products

Warning - Always read the label

Many of these products we use every day, without ever considering the effect they may have on our health and environment. You only need turn over a bottle of one of your favourite cleaning products or hair styling products to see a long list of warnings and toxic ingredients! One survey claims that cleaning products and aerosols carry up to 11 warnings like 'irritant', 'do not inhale' and 'use in well ventilated areas'. Yet how many of us use a protective face mask and open the bathroom window when cleaning?

British Studies have found that the air inside our home can be up to ten times more toxic and polluted than the air outside - even in a busy city.

Damaging to health and environment

We breathe in these fumes and absorb them through our skin. When we flush them away down the sink or loo they filter through into our waterways, harming the environment and killing wildlife. Open a window and they escape into the air, damaging the ozone layer and polluting the atmosphere.

Pregnant women, babies and children are particularly at risk. So before you decorate your unborn baby's nursery, give some serious thought to the paint, wallpaper, carpet and furniture that can potentially be loaded with toxic residues and chemicals. Don't forget, pets and babies in the household can pick up residues of carpet or floor cleaning products on more, on their paws and hands when they move about.

Our laundry and cleaning products are free from many of the chemical nasties.

Natural cleaning products - do they really work?

The answer is quite simply, yes they do! We use all the bio-d household cleaning products in our own home and are completely satisfied with them. The benefits are great too, no headaches, no skin rashes and a healthier, cleaner climate at home! The Glass & Mirror Spray from Bio-D is personally the best I have ever used. The Bio-D laundry products are superb and the only products that don't bring my daughter and I out in a rash. Many of the products are also available in refill bottles or larger 5lt canisters, saving waste and money.

Spirit of Nature - a name you can trust

    Natural Products - is it worth paying more?

    Perhaps you have read negative reports about organic or natural products. Sceptics will claim that it's a whole load of rubbish and just an excuse to 'rip off' the consumer with higher prices. The fact that you are reading this suggests that you don't fully believe what the sceptics say. Natural and organic products are a little more expensive than cheap, mass-produced conventional products.

    However, we believe it is a small price to pay for natural, good quality products which has been made with our health and the environment in mind. In the organic industry, there are no huge mark-ups. How many multi-millionaire organic farmers, manufacturers or even retailers have you seen? Surely that is the proof.

    Nothing is for free and you always get what you pay or don't pay for...so, if you buy 'super cheap' bargains you might pay the difference with your health!

    Spirit of Nature - keeping costs low

    We try our very best to keep our prices as low as possible by working with modern, efficient technology in our warehouse and offices. We try to source products from the UK or Europe, keeping transportation costs low and promoting local and regional trade. To keep cost low we shoot our own photos, design our catalogues and website. Although we have to invest a lot of our own time we feel it is well worth the effort for our customers and environment.
