How It Works
Three Areas Worth Attention
Ingredient Transparency
Biodegradable claims vary. EU Ecolabel and Nordic Swan Ecolabel require ingredient disclosure and toxicological testing — most supermarket brands do not meet these standards without certification.
Packaging Loops
Refillable systems reduce single-use plastic by 60–80% per product cycle. Czech eco-shops like Bezobalu and Zero Waste Vsetín operate deposit-return systems for liquid household cleaners.
Household Sorting
Czech municipal sorting rates reached 47% in 2023 according to EKO-KOM data. Correct sorting of packaging from cleaning products into plastics, glass, and paper containers is covered in detail in our guides.
