Dishwasher detergents are still not known for their negative impact on the planet. And yet, their presence in freshwater facilitates algae and threatens the habitats of fish and other organisms.
Thankfully, due to the recent wave of eco-friendly living, some detergent manufacturers have realised the importance of having a neutral footprint on our planet. This list only recommends products that both clean your dishes as well as traditional detergents, and don’t harm the environment. Win-win!
