Ecover washing powderAs the UK?s favourite manufacturer of ecological cleaning products Ecover pride themselves on being innovative, pushing boundaries and driving change. They are therefore incredibly proud to be launching the next generation of Ecover laundry products in September 2006.

 

Ecover pioneered ecological cleaning products in the UK, and as such they continue to be pioneering in the ecological and ethical field.

 

The whole range features ground-breaking new ingredients, fantastic cleaning power and increased solubility. The key change in the formulae is a brand new surfactant (the bit that does all the hard work), so new in fact that Ecover is the only manufacturer in the world to be using it!

 

The hero of our new range is Ecover?s integrated Non-Bio Washing Powder. They have spent two years developing the new powder at Ecover?s unique ecological factory.

 

Their new Non-Bio Washing Powder now works so well on your washing that the Good Housekeeping Institute has approved it. Good Housekeeping tests have shown that the new product is just as good as the leading brand in the UK!

Recycled forks and spooksPedlars say that they choose the products we sell with real love and care and in the case of these recycled fork and spoon hooks they really have got things right. 

 

The hooks are made by a guy called Steve Handley who rummages through thousands of pieces of antique cutlery and selects only the best for his unique hooks.
