Which cleaning agent should we choose?We will now compare the usual conventional agents with the organic versions.

We examined the content of each eco and conventional cleaning agent in the mustard. As a result of the comparison, we can conclude that while in conventional preparations we can find here and there substances harmful to he alth and the environment, the eco-versions contain natural plant and mineral substances, do not contain synthetic components, and are free of environmentally harmful phosphates, he alth-damaging chlorine and preservatives.

However, among these agents there may also be some whose components - e.g. linalool – can cause allergies. That's why we should be aware even when buying eco cleaning products!
