Seventh Generation vs Method
We all make an effort to get our clothes crisp and clean when we get around to doing our dirty laundry. However, conventional detergents can often leave your clothes coated with chemical residues that can absorb in your skin or be breathed in when they evaporate. Luckily, there are a number of companies releasing not-toxic and biodegradable alternative detergents that freshen up your laundry the eco-friendly way. Method and Seventh Generation are two of those companies that take green laundry very seriously.
You can find our selection of Seventh Generation products here and Method products here.
Sometimes the greener choice is simple. Other times, it might not work for you.
