If you’re trying to reduce your home’s environmental footprint, small tweaks can end up making a big difference.

From sustainable paper towels for your kitchen counters to tissues made for your delicate skin and wipes for your baby’s bottom, we have you covered when it comes to thinking about the ecological impact of your routine, without making you sacrifice any comfort or convenience.  

If you want to make the eco-friendly switch, you’ll be in good company too, since Global Consumer Research shows that 76% of shoppers globally say they strongly believe in the importance of independent certifications, so the FSC seal is more relevant than ever.

DAILY CHANGES THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Made with recycled paper, Cascades Tuff Enviro paper towel is your kitchen and general spill sidekick. Don’t be fooled by the fluffy bunny mascot, these sheets are tough and super absorbent to help with your sustainable household cleaning. As a an added bonus, using recycled fibers allows the company to save 31.7 million trees from being cut down and the equivalent of enough water to keep Niagara Falls flowing for seven hours.

Babies are notorious for being the source of a lot of single-use consumption, but thankfully sustainable products like Attitude biodegradable diaper wipes are paving a way forward with the earth and its forests in mind. This plant-based, fragrance-free option is biodegradable and compostable, along with being soft on their sensitive skin.
