Eco-friendly Munch Tips

Top 11 Eco Kitchen Hints

It’s easy to make a difference in the kitchen with these easy tips from eco-friendly Munch:

Dish Brushes

To start with, this is a straightforward and obvious issue. We will inhabit the planet for centuries to come if we keep using plastic dish brushes! You don’t want your great grandchildren to dig it up – yuck. To avoid this, use dish brushes made out of wood that is ethically sourced. There are also Munch wooden bottle brushes, cup brushes and vege brushes available.

Dish Cloth

Dish cloths contain more than 90% microfibre, which clogs waterways and prevents landfills from breaking down. Therefore, switch over to a Swedish style dishcloth sporting cool designs made from cellulose cotton.

Pot Scourers

Put an end to those pot scourers made from microfibre or even steel and say hello to our cellulose cotton and sisal natural pot scourers.

Dish Soap and Liquids

We remember our grandmothers using dish soap in their sinks. But now Munch has recently released a soap that is 100% natural. with these you are saving over 6 plastic bottles.

You can use a refinery to refill a bottle of liquid dish soap if you are already using it and do not wish to switch. To refill with eco-cleaning products, there are plenty of choices on the market.

Bench Top Cleaners

The market is full of brands that offer eco-eco-friendly multipurpose bench cleaners so keen an eye out for one.

Beeswax Wraps, Cotton Food Covers and Silicone Food Covers

You can use silicone covers to cover meat, cotton food covers to cover salads, and beeswax wraps to cover everything except meat.

Compost Bins

Designed to sit on your kitchen bench, this compost bin will allow you to easily put the leftover veg scraps in, which can then be put into your large compost bin outside.

Food Pegs/Clips

Sealing packets with plastic clips is not a good idea. Stainless steel pegs or wooden food clips can be used to keep the food in packets closed when storing it.
