What exactly are eco products?
Certain products are called environmentally friendly, ecologically acceptable or green products for various reasons. Products made from recycled or recyclable materials are the highest caliber eco products, more so if the manufacturing process is ecologically benign as well. Non-toxic cleaners, pest controls, household consumables, etcetera, that do not pollute the soil, air and water are, by definition, environmentally friendly. Composting systems, that convert food waste and other organic material into beneficial soil enhancers and plant food, like the popular Bokashi bucket, are the epitome of greenness. Water saving products conserve water by diverting wastewater and rainwater to the garden or conserve water using tap timers and flow restrictors. Or it could be a simply be a bucket to collect bath water for reuse instead of letting run down the drain. Eco products make good economic sense too, why not recycle, conserve energy or re-use water if it’s going to save you money!
