Founder of this eco-friendly Adelaide business Valentina and her family have always been strong supporters of recycling practices but few years ago realised just how much plastic is around us and how little of it is even recyclable.
As a family we slowly started detoxing our home from products that were creating unnecessary waste and then searched for the best eco-friendly alternatives the world over – Valentina, Biocasa Founder
This included switching to plastic-free and organic deodorants, facial soaps and solid shampoo bars, choosing compostable loofah sponges and bamboo kitchen scrubbers, and changing to laundry detergent strips and wool dryer balls to wash clothes in an eco-friendlier way. These are all small and effective changes when implemented over time, but have a lasting effect on the amount of waste a household produces.
Having extensively researched and tested many products and finding sustainable alternatives they truly loved and believed in, they created Biocasa to help other families like theirs along the journey to a greater sustainability.
