Clean Your House and Clothes Naturally
People who wish to live more naturally soon realise that this means more than what we put into our bodies, but what we use in our homes too.
In an ideal world we would all be able to afford organic cotton bedding, towels and clothes, but there are things that we can do to improve both our health and our impact on the environment at little extra cost.
Using natural eco friendly cleaning products is one way, and at Swindon Pulse we sell a range of these including:
Bio-D is an independent, family owned, ethically motivated company, dedicated to promoting the use of hypoallergenic, environmentally responsible detergents that have a minimum impact on the ecosystem both in their use and their manufacturing process. Where possible, all raw materials are plant derived and are obtained from renewable sources. All bottles, containers and packaging contain ptimum levels of recycled materials and are themselves recyclable. We sell most of their products as new, with Washing Up liquid and Laundry liquid also available as refills (Bio-D bottles only please).
Ecover laundry powders, liquids and softeners, and their washing
up liquid, are all available in new bottles or if you bring your old
bottle in you can swop it for a refill (marked with green spot) - save money and generate less plastic
waste! Please wash out your bottles before returning them for a refill. Ecover also make excellent floor cleaners, multi- surface cleaners, a
toilet cleaner, and last but not least, an excellent Limescale remover
- absolutely essential in this very hard water area! Our suppliers no longer supply Ecover Dishwashing tablets or Biological Washing powder as these contain GM enzymes. If you want to read what Ecover have to say about this you can do so here.
EcoBalls, which replace laundry powders and liquids in the washing machine, and last for years.
EcoBalls care for your clothes, your washing machine and your environment. EcoBalls wash system stands for everything we believe in; it is natural, environmentally friendly, efficient and cost-effective, and delivers a clean, fresh, sensitive alternative to conventional washing powders that pollute our water supply, reduce the lifespan of our washing machine and break down the very clothing they're supposed to care for. Just place the three balls in your washing machine instead of detergent. Together the units produce ionized oxygen that activates the water molecules naturally and allows them to penetrate deep into clothing fibres to lift dirt away. They are reuseable for up to 1000 washes and costs on average 3p per wash. There are no harsh chemicals so less pollution. Rinse cycle can be shortened saving water and electricity. It will not fade bright colours or damage clothing fibres. They are hypoallergenic so are suitable for sensitive skins/eczema (including babies and children). EcoBalls soften clothes even in hard water and as your clothes will be softer no fabric conditioner is necessary. Also anti-bacterial and kills Escherichia Coli and Staphylococcus Aureus. Comes with a 30 day money back guarantee! Includes free refill pellets and a stain remover. Imagine not having the hassles and expense of carting bulky powders and liquids home from the supermarket independent wholefood shop ever again!

Cheapest of all is good old fashioned bicarbonate of soda, we sell this loose, so you can buy as much or little as you like. Bicarbonate of Soda can be used to clean sinks and baths etc by placing a teaspoonful on half a lemon and applying elbow grease, then can then be rinsed off. Water with a few tablespoons of vinegar can be used to clean windows and rubbed dry with scrunched up newspaper.
