Danika naturel
Danika is a transparent brand offering natural, biodegradable products. They offer many products such as natural laundry powders you can make yourself, floor cleaners, and dish soaps.
What prompted the creation of the brand ? The composition of commercial laundry products, which is too harsh and, because they are not fully treated in wastewater plants, ends up polluting rivers and harming biodiversity.
Lopa
LOPA stands for Love Our Planet Again. To that end, the brand offers a sachet of powder to make your own shower gel.
Thanks to them, you can offer your guests zero-waste shower gels !

Frequently asked questions
Do zero-waste products really hold up to the pace of a rental ? The three brands mentioned here cover the essentials of everyday cleaning : floors, dishes, laundry, shower. Danika offers floor cleaners, natural laundry to prepare yourself and dish soaps. Try them on a rotation before switching all your stock.
Why avoid commercial laundry detergents ? That is precisely what led to Danika’s creation : overly aggressive formulations. These detergents are not fully treated in wastewater plants, they end up in rivers and affect biodiversity. A natural DIY laundry detergent solves the problem at source.
How can I offer a plastic-free shower gel to guests ? LOPA, which stands for Love Our Planet Again, sells a powder sachet from which you make your own shower gel. You can therefore provide a zero-waste shower gel to your guests, with no disposable bottle in the bathroom. It’s the sort of detail a guest notices and talks about.
What is special about Iris Hantverk brushes ? This Swedish brand focuses on clean design and high-quality brushes. They are made by blind artisans, following the classic Swedish tradition. There are versions for all uses : dishes, food prep, bath.
Where should I start if I want to make my accommodation more eco-friendly ? Start with one area, not the whole property. Cleaning is the easiest to change : one laundry product, a dish soap, a shower gel, and you have already eliminated several bottles per season.
