We have gotten rid of plastic washing up sponges altogether, replacing them with innovative E-cloths which are reusable and long-lasting. As part of our rigorous hygiene regime, we would often use a large number of plastic sponges in a short period of time, and when we ordered replacements, they would come wrapped in excess plastic. In seeking plastic-free alternatives, it was a challenge to find good quality options that would be suitable for use in our busy kitchen. After trialling several alternatives, we were delighted to discover the long-lasting E-cloth, which comes with no excess plastic and is designed to clean using just water without detergents or other chemicals.
