At the start of each year, we like to leave a welcome gift for our lodge owners. Typically, it’s a sampling of local food or beverages, but this year we decided to take a more sustainable approach and encourage our owners to participate in our eco-friendly initiatives.
This year, we welcomed our owners with a Homethings Starter Bundle, featuring washing-up liquid, multipurpose cleaning spray, laundry sheets, dishwasher tablets, and floor cleaner pods. At first glance, it might not seem as exciting as chocolates or wine, but this quirky, sustainable brand is sure to grab your attention and get you involved in a meaningful way.
Homethings
Homethings is a B Corp company known for its eco-friendly household cleaning products. Their bold strap-line, “The world is bonkers. Single-use plastic is bonkers. Homethings makes sense.” sets the tone for their mission.
At the heart of Homethings’ innovation is their commitment to reducing waste, particularly by eliminating the need for shipping water. Traditional single-use cleaning sprays are 90% water, but Homethings’ clever solution includes reusable bottles and dissoluble cleaning tabs that are lightweight and eco-friendly.
After the success of their cleaning sprays, they expanded their product line to include laundry detergent, dishwasher tablets, floor cleaner, and washing-up liquid—all designed to reduce waste and transportation, while using low-toxic ingredients.
A key benefit for our lodge owners is the reduced storage space required for these refills. In a lodge, where space is often at a premium, these small refills (which you just add water to) free up room for holiday essentials or those little luxuries!
Tried and Tested
We’ve personally tested Homethings products at home and gathered feedback from our lodge owners. The results? No compromise on performance—many of the products are even better than the traditional brands we’ve been using out of habit. Plus, they smell fantastic! The fun, vibrant branding also makes it easy to get the whole family, including kids, excited about cleaning and sustainability.
We highly recommend Homethings and their range of eco-cleaning products. If you’re looking for alternative local suppliers, consider checking out Kin&Co in Abersoch, which offers a wide range of sustainable goods.
