The new year is upon us, and we all know what that means: time for good resolutions! How great would it be if your resolution benefits not only your home, but also the planet? We would love to be your partner in crime to make cleaning plastic-free and fun!

In the laundry room

Your laundry room is the place where you can easily apply sustainable cleaning. With these practical tips, you can keep both your clothes and your washing machine in top shape while contributing to a plastic-free future.

1. Never use too much detergent - avoid laundry lice

Using too much detergent can lead to laundry lice: a smelly, greasy coating that remains in the rubber, loading tray and door of your washing machine. This is not only bad for your machine, but also for your clothes.

TIP: Choose BRAUZZ. Laundry sheets, a pre-dosed, ecological detergent. No more mess and always the right dosage, eazzy peazzy!

2. Deepclean your washing machine every 2 months

A thorough cleaning will make your washing machine last longer and keep your clothes clean. Follow this checklist to make your machine like new again:

✅ Check and clean the filter at the bottom
✅ Clean the loading tray
✅ Remove dirt from the rubber inside
✅ Wipe the door edges well
✅ Start a boil wash at 90°C with a dishwasher tablet if necessary

Clean machine = clean clothes!

With these small changes, you can make your laundry routine truly sustainable.

In the kitchen

The kitchen is the heart of your home, but also a place where dirt and odors can quickly build up. With a few simple tips, you can get rid of animal nasty odors. Here are two must-do's for a clean and fresh kitchen!

1. Deepclean your dishwasher every 3 months

A clean dishwasher is essential for an optimally functioning machine and sparkling clean dishes. Food particles and dirt accumulate quickly in the filter and pipes, so timely cleaning is key!

Checklist for a deep clean:

✅ Clean the dishwasher filter thoroughly
✅ Remove and clean the racks
✅ Wipe down the door edges and the cargo area
✅ Start an intensive program at 75°C

TIP: Use an all-in-one dishwasher tablet and avoid using extra salt.

2. Troubled by nasty odors? Use a dishwashing tab!

Accumulated grease and dirt in the sink are often the culprits behind nasty odors. Fortunately, there's an eazy peazzy solution!

In 3 easy steps:

1️⃣ Place a dishwashing tab in the sink
2️⃣ Pour hot water over it
3️⃣ Repeat until the tab is completely dissolved

For a permanently fresh kitchen, we recommend cleaning the sink this way monthly.

TIP: No dishwasher tab in the house? No problem! Coffee grounds also work perfectly to neutralize odors and grease.

In the bathroom

The bathroom is the place where you begin and end your daily routine. But nothing is more annoying than a shower head that doesn't spray vigorously or a toilet brush that collects more bacteria than you care to. Fortunately, with a few eazzy peazzy tips, you can keep your bathroom fresh and hygienic, all in a sustainable, braising way!
