 We all want to live more sustainably…

But sometimes, “natural” or “eco” isn't as much as it seems 🤔
Here you go 5 errors that many people make thinking they are helping the planet (and how to avoid them) 👇


❌1. Using vinegar and baking soda to clean EVERYTHING

Yes, they are natural…
But They are not effective on all surfaces and they can damage appliances or silicone seals.
In addition, Vinegar contaminates water if used in excess because it alters its pH.

Check mark Better Use eco-friendly products designed to safely and biodegradably clean (like the strips VAMZ ShopRecycling symbol).


❌ 2. Buying “eco” products in plastic packaging

A product can be natural, but if its packaging is PET or hard plastic...
🙃 It's still generating waste.

Search options en Compostable packaging, recyclable or package-free, like our biodegradable strip packaging.


❌ 3. Use wet wipes “compostables”

Many contain synthetic fibers or chemicals that They don't disappear in either compost or the toilet..
And treatment plants collapse 😩

Use reusable cotton cloths or loofahs.


❌ 4. Recycling incorrectly “with good intentions”

Throwing dirty cardboard into the blue bin, or tossing paper bags with food scraps, contaminates the entire recycling chain.
