Review of Ecover Washing Up Liquid

...review I think! Using Ecover is a way to stand up and be counted. To say a big. Loud NO to all the companies out there that have got us hooked on chemical based, toxic products to clean our homes within an inch of their red-brick little lives. ****************************************************************************************************************************************** Who are Ecover? Well, they are the revolutionaries who first stood ...
...in 1980, Ecover was founded, as a pioneering company, selling phosphate free products. As a company, Ecover is very concerned about environmental issues and in 1992 they opened the world's first ecological factory - it has a green "live" roof! This product is actually made at this factory. Every part of their business is covered by ecological policy, not just the products and production of them, but everything else, like marketing and sales (for ...

Review of Ecover Washing Up Liquid

...we stayed in used all Ecover products I felt like I was getting a free sample so I test drove the products and was particularly impressed by the washing up liquid. So much so that when we got home and I needed to buy some more washing up liquid I thought I would ge this product and see how well it lasts. I have to say that I have been extremely impressed by this product – it has a wonderful camomile and citrus smell which is light and yet does not ...
...night before I put the Ecover in the dirtier of the two and the well known brand in the other. We then put some very hot water in each pan. The Ecover pan only required a little rubbing with the sponge to get the dirt off whereas the well known brand needed a bit of scouring help. Also the Ecover made the saucepan lovely and bright – it looked properly clean. Was this because of the lack of residue you have to ask. I suffer from eczema on my hands ...

Review of Ecover Washing Up Liquid

...are very good indeed that Ecover will be there alongside the other detergents. Look closely at that price tag, and you will find that whatever your product emporium normally charges for cleaning products, your Ecover will be priced much the same. That's right, it's not going to cost you any more to do this. Ecover are the biggest and best established brand carrying this sort of thing, but I would like to pause and point out that they aren't the ...
...explode another myth for you. Ecover works perfectly well. On first contact, you may think you've bought a dud, for the simple reason that you don't get a bowl full of bubbles. Those bubbles you are so fond of are largely cosmetic, they don't do much. Use a small squirt of ecover, and you'll find that your dishes come up perfectly well. I think its actualy better for glassware than the Fairy I was using before I saw the light... Anyone with skin ...

Review of Ecover Washing Up Liquid

...back of the bottle of Ecover washing up liquid I feel all warm and glowy, and like I might be a nice person after all. Well, we'll start from the beginning shall we? You'll find Ecover Washing Up Liquid nestling amongst the Fairy and the Persil liquids in just about any store these days, I purchase mine from Waitrose but I am assured it's no longer as scarce as it used to be elsewhere. Ecover comes in a normal sort of a bottle, with nice, mature ...
...the dishes were pretty good. Ecover is no exception; you squirt a bit in (it's in concentrate form so a teeny bit will do) swirl it around to get a few bubbles and then off you go. The fun part. Where you spend hours with your elbows in suds deliriously dreaming of a dishwasher...or maybe that's just me. Anyway, the dishes come out all squeaky and clean and smelling nice so all's good on that score. Smell, yes. I originally bought Ecover in it's ...

Review of Ecover Washing Up Liquid

...we're using? Ecover. Ecover are probably the most famous of the "environmentally-friendly" manufacturers of household detergents. Among their products you will find: cream cleaners; multi-surface cleaners; washing powder; fabric conditioner; bathroom and toilet cleaners; dishwasher tablets. They've been making them since 1979. And they've been making them in the world's very first ecological factory. It's made largely from wood with a grass – yes, ...

If you want to find out more about them you can, at their open and honest home in cyberspace, www.ecover.com. To the liquid, then MacDuff. Easy enough to find on the supermarket shelves, the Ecover washing up liquid is packaged very prettily. Look for the almost opaque bottle with a lovely picture ...

Review of Ecover Washing Up Liquid

...This op is about Ecover Washing-up liquid. I do not have a dishwasher. This is not from choice but I do feel virtuous by not having one and having to do it myself. In my house we have a washing-up rota which most visitors think is rather funny. The washing up chore is the greatest cause of arguments in our home as no one wants to do it, so the only solution was for a rota to be drawn up. So far this has not meant that the washing up is done promptly, ...
...15 years along with other Ecover products. I never know how to pronounce the name but choose Eec - over (with a little bit of a French accent to sound like Green - 'Vert'?!) The bottle is recyclable or refillable and of a very basic, un-eyecatching design. There is a clear plastic label with an attractive design highlighting the fact that the ingredients are based on plant and minerals, harnessing the power of nature. So there. The liquid contains ...

Review of Ecover Washing Up Liquid

...out from the crowd. Ecover Washing Up Liquid does just that in my view so I thought I would put 'fingers to the keyboard' to tell everyone what makes this washing up liquid different from the rest. ==Why try the product?== To be honest I can't really remember what it was that prompted me to buy my first ever bottle of this washing up liquid. I had been a Fairy user for years and was quite happy with it, my mother always used it and what was good ...
...to the light and fresh Ecover product. The Ecover washing up liquids are lightly fragranced with things like Camomile and Marigold, and Lemon and Aloe Vera and they tend to make other products smell artificial. I was hooked, from that day on I have stuck with Ecover. I absolutely love it. The cleaning power on glassware is amazing, time after time it comes up sparkling, I can't imagine going back to any other washing up liquid. ==About the company== ...

Review of Ecover Washing Up Liquid

I've been a member of CIAO now since 2005, and in that time I've generally only written reviews about products I like, and were available for writing CIAO reviews about, and were mostly full of praise. However, in that time I've also been itching for something I could review that I could really rip into, Clarkson style. And then I remembered this stuff. It's been available in the UK since around the early 1990's so far as I can remember, and made ...
...time to time (and usually took a while to get shot of).. It is aimed at the environmentally conscious, not necessarily those who have been taken in by the overhyped Global warming scam, but mainly those who care about things that genuinely matter, like Water quality, etc Personally I can't stand the stuff, as for starters it's pretty weak, and the suds don't last as long as a proper washing-up liquid such as Fairy Liquid, and it smells REALLY bad. ...

...up using Ecover. Ecover is the lone non-animal tested and environmentally friendly product I was able to locate on my supermarket shelves, and was suggested to me by a friend who's very exacting on which products she will allow in her house. They produce other cleaning products as well: cream cleaners; multi-surface cleaners; laundry products. I went on the Internet to investigate them a little, and Ecover was established in 1979 and was the first ...

It's simple but attractive, and compared to the bright gaudy packaging of other brands; it stands out as being both the pl ainest and the most attractive packaging. The packaging is made from recycled materials, and is recyclable itself, The bottle and labels are made of polyethylene; and the cap of polypropylene. I've never seen a plastic recycling point near me, so mine ...

Although I do care about the enviroment, selfishly, at that time my hands had priority. On the reverse of the bottle you can read more about Ecover, Instructions for use and ingredients. The liquid itself is clear to look at and has very little smell at all. Giving the impression of a natural product unlike rival ...

...that the main focus of Ecover is the environment, and they have thought of their product's environmental consequences at every stage in detail, they surprisingly talk very little about just how well their products work or what other advantages they have. Several others have written excellent in depth reviews about the low environmental impact of this product here, so I won't discuss it in too much detail when you have so much information available ...
...skin. However, in summary, the Ecover brand products are made in a specially designed and built ecological factory that consumes minimal energy and doesn't generate any toxic waste materials. The products themselves are entirely made of plant extracts and minerals, and they're tested for maximum biodegradability and low toxicity. The residues left in the water shouldn't be any less biodegradable than the food stains you washed away with it. Finally, ...

...fancy web-operated covering system. Ecover is, in fact, a washing-up liquid made “For people who care”, so says the packaging. You see, Ecover is an environmentally friendly company, who produce washing-up liquid such as Camomile and Marigold, which is what I am reviewing here, as well as Lemon and Aloe Vera, Cleansing Agents, Detergents, Hand Cleaners and Compost Bags. * Where I heard about Ecover Now if you’re anything like me you will have ...
...go on to say that Ecover was no more expensive than well-known non-environmentally friendly brands, which persuaded me to give it a go (who says Ciao doesn’t work?) * Price A 1 litre bottle of Ecover Washing-Up liquid costs £1.58 from Tesco.com, which works out at a little under 16p per 100ml. (Compared to Persil costing 74p for 500ml, or 15p per 100ml, and Fairy, which is £1.68 per litre, just under 17p per 100ml) * Better for the Environment? ...

Review of Ecover Washing Up Liquid

...The main reason for using Ecover is, of course, it's environmentally-friendly. Rather than creating an eco-friendly product alongside a range of lesser products (like other companies do), Ecover has an all-encompassing policy that extends to the way the whole company operates. So the factories and warehouses all recycle and use energy-efficient resources and so on. I really like this product and would strongly recommend it particularly to the environtment-conscious ...
