Description
Reduce plastic and waste in the kitchen – these reusable compostable cloths are a great place to start! Use instead of disposable paper towels for wiping up spills (each cloth holds 20 x its weight in water); replace plastic dish cloths for cleaning worktops and washing up; or use them to polish surfaces. Get a virtually streak-free finish when cleaning counter tops. The cloths dry out quickly when left to air dry, so are less likely to breed bacteria and smell, and they won’t crumble or pill.
When designing the cloths, the makers kept in mind the sea animals most negatively impacted by ocean plastic: for example around 100,000 albatrosses die each year from ingesting plastic waste after mistaking it for food.
These plastic-free cloths are made in Sweden, with cellulose from sustainably sourced wood cellulose and cotton fibres that are too short for the textile industry. They are 100% biodegradable and compostable, and the designs are printed with environmentally friendly water-based inks.
Each cloth measures 17.5 x 20cm. All Battle Green products are sent using biodegradable, plastic-free packing materials.
Care Instructions:
As required, wash your cloth in the top rack of a dishwasher or in a washing machine (30-60 degrees), air dry (tumble drying is not recommended), and keep reusing. At the end of its life, the cloth can be cut up and composted – the materials will break down and return to nature in around six weeks.
