THE PLASTIC PROBLEM
Making cleaning sustainable is our calling
Why? Because plastic is a problem. Cleaning might not be the most glamorous calling. But cleaning up is a messy job, and someone’s gotta do it. By bringing you the best eco-friendly cleaning products and compostable trash bags possible, we make it easier than ever to say no to single-use plastic bottles and bags. Here are a few facts that motivated our mission.
MEET PLASTNO
We say no to plastic
Once we learned the cold hard facts about single-use plastic cleaning products, we set about doing something about it. We knew cleaning supplies were an essential part of everyday living, but we thought to ourselves “Do they need to be made from plastic? No, they don’t!” And that’s how Plastno was born.
Our goal is to keep investing in eco-friendly innovation to bring you the best sustainable cleaning products and compostable trash bags possible. Cleaning solutions that are just as effective and durable as they are safe for the planet.
HOW WE INNOVATE
Clean without compromise
We believe that you can have it all in your cleaning products. No sacrifices, no compromise. Our products are effective, convenient, safe for use, affordable and sourced from environmentally responsible ingredients. Before, during and after we launch our products, we’re constantly innovating to identify the latest methods to better meet these standards.
Our mission is simple: make cleaning sustainable, while being safe, effective and affordable.
— Julian, Founder & CEO
The Plastno promise
We are fully committed to creating a cleaner, greener world. Sustainable cleaning may be our calling, but we won’t stop there in our pursuit of saving the planet!
HOW WE PRODUCE
Planet first, from factory to you
Powered by plants
We use strictly non-GMO, earth-friendly materials derived from plants and minerals. All of our ingredients are selected to optimize for human and planet health and all of our products are dissolvable, compostable or recyclable.
People and the planet
We care for our collective by making sure all partner relationships are BSCI certified and are held to high standards of respect and transparency, setting a standard for ethical manufacturing throughout our supply chain.
Carbon-neutral
Since our products are made without plastic and single-use packaging, we can minimize the impact of shipping products to your door. We offset what we do generate as a carbon neutral company and identify the best ways to minimize waste.
A clean start
We set out to create a business that acts as a force for good – showing that sustainable business practices and products can be the "norm," not the exception (just read our reviews).
Our certifications
When considering any eco-friendly alternative to cleaning products and trash bags, it’s important to check their credentials. Our bags are BPI and TUV-certified for composting at home and in commercial facilities, which means they are independently verified to meet the highest standards of compostability. Once disposed of, they’ll disappear within just a few weeks, leaving nothing toxic behind.
BPI
Setting the standard for industrial composting in North America, BPI ensures our bags are safe for commercial facilities. They are rigorously checked to ensure they leave no synthetic residue behind.
TUV
Globally recognized, TUV-certified means our bags have passed multiple tests for safe home composting. Put simply, they will break down cleanly in your own backyard – into organic matter safe for use on plants.
The team behind Plastno
The Plastno team is all about providing a cleaner, greener planet for future generations.
From re-purposing old t-shirts to embracing wonky fruits and veggies, we’re always thinking of weird and wonderful ways to reduce our environmental impact. Of course, that includes spreading the word about the best sustainable cleaning supplies and compostable trash bags!
We believe everyone has a role to play in saving the planet, from us to you.
