Washable and reusable toilet paper
Who hasn't been shocked by the price of toilet paper while shopping? It's really annoying to spend so much money on something that you immediately throw away. Don't you agree? Besides, we always tend to use too much of it. So what's the solution to save money and, above all, to do something good for the planet ? Washable and reusable toilet paper . We'll tell you everything!
Washable toilet paper: how to make the switch?
Zero waste is becoming increasingly popular. Consumers are more engaged than ever before in everything related to the environment.
So yes, some have already opted for solid shampoo , washable sanitary towels or even menstrual panties . But is it really that easy to switch to washable toilet paper?
Ecological solution
Do you know how much water it takes to produce disposable toilet paper? 150 liters. That's huge!
Reusable toilet paper is machine washable. 50 liters of water are used per cycle. That's 3 times less.
Moreover, it is infinitely reusable.
On average, a French person consumes more than 100 rolls per year, or more than 6 kg of waste.
More pleasant material
Conventional toilet paper tends to irritate the genitals. It's important to know that even though some brands advertise the thickness and softness of the paper, a lot of chemicals are used to achieve this result.
At Les cotons de Romane, 100% natural washable intimate wipes are made from cotton and ultra-soft bamboo sponge.
Reusable toilet paper: daily use
It may make some people smile when we say we use washable toilet paper. This is mainly because it's not common practice.
Some people may also be wary or even horrified. In fact, it's enough to explain how to use it and, above all, how to wash it.
Use for small commission
If you're not comfortable reusing your toilet paper, you can limit your toilet paper to just the occasional use. This way, the paper will be minimally soiled.
To avoid unpleasant odors, we recommend storing the leaves in a sealed container after use. You can also use a dirty laundry bag and add a few drops of essential oils to it.
Machine wash
Reusable toilet paper is machine washable. Wash your personal wipes regularly at 40 to 60°C. If the sheets are very dirty, you can pre-wash them in cold, soapy water before putting them in the washing machine.
Then let them air dry to avoid damaging them.
