Choosing Durable Everyday Household Objects with a Positive Impact

Choosing Durable Everyday Household Objects with a Positive Impact

At The Unscented Company, we were always more than just a soap company. Our practices and products are human-centered and inspired by a sincere desire to offer a healthier lifestyle choice in the simplest way possible. We empower consumers through our products, service and values, so they can effortlessly have the biggest positive impact on the world.

That’s why about a year ago we started offering a small selection of sustainable home accessories via our website. Carefully chosen products that are either an alternative to a convention or a more sustainable option to an everyday product.

Here’s a short introduction to five companies that create and develop products for a more conscious lifestyle:

Made by Objective: Mariana’s beautiful and carefully designed practical home goods are all hand sewn in Montreal. Her high-quality linen tablecloths, napkins, dish towels, and aprons come in a variety of natural colors and can be used on a daily basis. Perfect to offer as a gift.

Dans le sac: Stephanie and Laurie launched Dans le Sac in 2016 to inspire change positively through their line of simple and convenient alternatives that respect both our health and the planet. Their zero-waste kit is the perfect introduction to bulk shopping made beautiful!
 
Redecker: This family-owned German company has truly passed the test of time with their complete line of natural brushes. The first Redecker brushes were hand-made in 1935! Every product they design is based on three premises: practical, beautiful, and sustainable. Their wood dish brush has been a sensation on our website!
 
Kliin: Marie-Pierre, the founder is Kliin is on a mission to make disposable paper towels something of the past. How does one go about shifting a habit so deeply-rooted in North American society? Marie-Pierre had an idea: by offering a better, eco-friendly option and adding eye-catching designs that will be a stylish addition to any home.
 
Moss Creek Wool Works: We liked these so much we decided to add them permanently to our line! Wool dryer balls are a natural earth friendly and long-lasting substitute to liquid and sheet fabric softener. They reduce drying time and wrinkles, soften naturally and prevent static cling. They can be used for over 500 dryer loads and can be composted at the end of their useful life.

These objects are not only beautiful and practical, they are symbols of a desire to consume differently. For the holidays, why not gift a durable household object that inspires change?
