restoring balance
We're using the earth's resources faster than they can be replenished and we're creating more inorganic and toxic waste than the earth can handle. Things are out of balance. We need to find sustainable solutions, ways to balance our needs with those of generations to come.
ecostore products are safer for the earth
Our aim is to help reduce the overall negative impact of our everyday living and business practices on the environment.
-
We use biodegradable ingredients that break down efficiently and harmlessly.
-
Our products help reduce the number of toxic chemicals entering our water ways and are safer for septic tanks. Using ecostore products in your bathroom and laundry can also improve the quality of your greywater making it a viable resource to reuse on your garden or even to flush your toilet.
- Packaging is a big concern for us - we are currently using recyclable plastic (which is still less than ideal) so in order to reduce packaging we offer refill options or bulk sizes in many of our product lines.
Safer ingredients
- We use sustainably sourced plant and mineral based ingredients to create safer, healthier products that do the job just as effectively as the petrochemical based ones.
- We practise the precautionary approach - if there is any doubt about the safety of an ingredient for the environment or for people's health we will find a safer alternative.
Outstanding performance
- We set the benchmark high. Our products have to perform just as well or better than top selling supermarket brands.
Value for money
- Our plant based ingredients are more expensive than petrochemical ones but we manage to keep our prices down by economically concentrating our formulations.
- We don't use cheap fillers or bulking agents - just pure active ingredients.
- Cost per use is significantly less than many other supermarket brands.
Ecostore products are made in New Zealand, GE free, are not tested on animals, and come in recyclable packaging.
