Eco Balls There are some people who believe that if something isn't what they've used for the last umpteen years, doesn't smell or doesn't mean adding any substance to a Wash, it can't work. Enter the Eco Balls. Eco Balls basically replace washing powder and liquids. They are three ball shaped object surrounded by rubber to prevent banging etc. and filled with scientifically proven mineral salts which produce ironised oxygen which in turn penetrates into fibres and sucks away any dirt. They are 100% hypoallergic, residue free and anti-bacterial. The original Eco Laundry Balls are reusable for up to 1,000 washes, which would amount to around one sixth of the cost if you use powder or liquid detergant ! If everyone in the UK used these, there would be almost three quarters of a million less tons of detergant floating down our water systems every year
Dryer BallsOf all the various Kitchen Appliances, the Tumble Dryer is one of the most expensive and energy guzzling of all. What Dryer Balls do is simply tumble around amongst your drying clothes. They reduce static by huge amounts, help to soften your clothes and because thay are plastic, they retain heat themselves thus making drying time quicker = saving money. All in all, these very simple devices are a real environmentially friendly addtion to your Laundry requirements. Plus, because there's nothing inside them, they'll last almost forever! |

From the ForumI am complete convert to the new Eco Balls. I consider myself to be green in most areas and do by best, although I am sure I could do alot better. I have recently been given some 'Eco Balls' as a present and to be honest I don't think I would have purchased them if they had not had been as I could not get my head around the cost and the gamble of do they actually work. Now after at least 20 washes I am completely converted and cannot believe the quality of the wash (even on ground in dirt) I will definitely buy the refills and have gone on to buy the tumble drying balls realising that there is a whole new Eco washing world out there ready for my to discover! So anybody sitting on the fence, should bite the bullet and convert as it is a great feeling knowing you are saving money and being good to the environment! - VickyS |
