How to Reduce Plastic Waste 

Ready-to-Use Cleaning Products: A Major Source of Plastic Waste

With ease of use, lower upfront costs, and familiar cleaning habits, ready-to-use cleaning products often appear more convenient than concentrated products with automated dosing systems. However, ready-to-use products are a major source of plastic waste in cleaning operations.

Using 10L or 20L commercial cleaning products without an automated dosing system frequently leads to overdosing, shorter product lifecycle, and significant plastic waste.

Glowex provides super-concentrated cleaning products featuring mono-material packaging and refillable spray bottles, helping reduce plastic waste to an absolute minimum.

Stop Shipping Water: The Power of Super-Concentrates

Are you managing your business, or just managing your cleaning stock? The hidden cost of Ready-to-Use (RTU) products isn't just the price—it's the constant administrative burden of reordering.

What is mono-material packaging? 

Mono-material packaging is packaging made from one single type of material, rather than a mix of different plastics, papers, or metals.

Easier to recycle: Because it contains only one material, recycling facilities can process it without sorting or separating layers.

Higher recycling quality: Recyclers can produce cleaner, more valuable recycled material.

More sustainable: Reduces waste and improves circularity in packaging systems.
