Revolutionizing Home and Laundry Care with Sustainable Practices
With respect to time and the current scenario, the eco-credential demand for home & household care brands and products is gaining attention among consumers. Formulations with higher antimicrobial properties and effective cleaning have become a primary concern among all kinds of customers. The major subsections of the sector, such as dishwashing care, hard surface & toilet cleaning, and air fresheners, are generating high-qualities of inventions without compromising their efficacy.
For a product like hard surface cleaning or dishwashing solution, disinfection is the utmost requirement for manufacturers and consumers. On this note, green & sustainable development plays a crucial role. A pre-measured quantity of dishwashing composition in the form of a compacted, biodegradable sheet has more preference than conventional formulations. Other innovative forms, like powder-to-gel refillable dishwashers and bio-based and biodegradable formulations, are also capturing worldwide markets. Production-cum-use of environmentally sound ingredients and technologies has become the main research focus of leading companies and organizations.
