This scrub contains minerals and plant-based ingredients which biodegrade completely. The plant-based surfectants lose all tensio-activity (they stop scrubbing) within 3-5 days. That means that even though this product will be effective when used, it will still be safe for the environment when disposed of!
Ecover Ecological Cream Scrub is made from finely ground chalk, coconut oil, and biodegradable preservatives along with other natural ingredients to create a biodegradable and non-toxic formula. Cream Scrub is mildly abrasive, and degreases and removes stains without scratching surfaces. It is equally as effective as scrubs that use harsh chemicals, but will not bring harm to the environment or introduce toxins into the home.
