Aluminium foil is great for both cooking and protecting food. It helps to preserve the quality and freshness of food, preserving taste and retaining moisture. It also helps to maintain temperature and protect against bacteria and oxygen.
Making traditional foil using new aluminium is a very energy intensive process, using up lots of power and subsequently burning lots of fossil fuels. Using recycled aluminium on the other hand reduces the energy consumption by a whopping 95%, making this a much more environmentally friendly option.
Aluminium can be recycled over and over again an infinite amount of times without losing its qualities, so the Recycled Aluminium Foil can be recycled after it's used, saving waste and precious resources.
Environmental Details
We know how difficult it can be to tell how much of an impact what you are buying has on the environment, and what effect switching to a more sustainable product has, so we have found out and compiled all of this information for you below.
WHAT DOES THE PRODUCT REPLACE?
Tru Earth Eco-Strips Laundry Detergent replace conventional laundry detergents, including pods, powder and liquids, that are often packaged in plastic and contain harmful chemicals.
WHAT IS THE PRODUCT MADE FROM?
The Tru Earth Fragrance Free Laundry Eco-Strips contain:Vegetable Glycerin, Starch, PVA, Potassium Sorbate, Light Mineral Oil (used in manufacturing as a processing aid, not an active product ingredient), Cocamido Propyl Betaine, Sodium Gluconate, Lauryl Dimethyl Amine Oxide, Sulfonic Acids (C14-16-alkane Hydroxy, C14-16-alkene, Sodium Salts), Glycereth Cocoate, Caprylyl Glucoside, Octyl Glucoside, Residual Water.Please note, we are not the manufacturer of the products sold on our website.

Actual product packaging and materials may contain more and/or different information than shown on our website.

WHY IS THIS PRODUCT BETTER?
Many conventional laundry detergents are packaged in unsustainable plastic and contain lots of heavy water, making them inefficient and polluting to transport. They also often contain chemicals that are harmful to the environment and your skin.Tru Earth have removed all of the water from their laundry strips, making them extremely small and lightweight. This helps to reduce the amount of carbon being produced during their transport - the yearly saving is equivalent to planting nine million trees, and this will increase as they become more popular!Tru Earth also use environmentally friendly chemicals in their detergent, which are kind to both the Earth and your skin. They are suitable for everyone, even those with the most sensitive of skin.
HOW IS THE PRODUCT PACKAGED?
Tru Earth Eco-Strips are packaged in a recyclable cardboard sleeve.
WHAT ABOUT WHEN I'VE FINISHED WITH THE PRODUCT?
Once you've used all of the Eco-Strips simply recycle or compost the cardboard sleeve. Other than that, the strips are 100% zero waste as they completely dissolve in the water when you do your washing.
