As we all strive to be more sustainable and kinder to the planet, many people are ditching products that are not eco-friendly or beneficial to our health. Many of these products are everyday items we use all the time around the home, but thankfully the demand for sustainable products means we can replace these items with once with far better eco-credentials. Of the sustainable materials that we now use, we, of course, love bamboo. The special grass with the woody stem and gorgeous leaves not only makes a lucky plant to have in the home, but it is also fast-growing, replenishing quickly, and is 100 per cent biodegradable. But aside from our bamboo-eco friendly products, there are some surprising products you may not have considered before.
