With a commercial range of products specifically produced with the
business in mind, the Techno Green and Ecover Professional ranges have 100%
recyclable packaging and have been developed to minimise pollution and
environmental impact. Based on plant and mineral ingredients and unlike many
petrochemical based products, they do not contain toxic, allergenic,
mutagenic or carcinogenic ingredients, making them safer for cleaning staff,
office staff, customers and the environment.
Ecover’s popular and cost effective Refill System is more effective to
transport and uses 46% less packaging in comparison to its predecessor. With
easily refillable bottles, saving money as well as plastic resources means
bottles can be re-filled up to 50 times before they need replacing.
