Go Green, use handkerchiefs

Don’t use tissues, tissues now days are super expensive for the environment. According to the European Tissue Symposium a normal European uses 13 kg of tissue (including toilet paper) a year.

A tissue is a single use product because of health and safety regulations. As a contaminant it is, the tissue should be composted.

So when you buy non recycled tissues you are using virgin fiber, fresh from the forest, witch also requires quite an amount of energy to be produced as we find it.

The handkerchiefs are silky and smooth and you just have to wash then afterwards. Wash them separately, together, rinse them before washing and just try not to waste water.

Go green, go smart, go handkerchiefs!
