We recently began using some of these products, when their line was picked up by nearbly Central Market, in Austin. So far, everything we have tried has been outstanding, including their laundry, dish and hand soaps. What is equally exciting is that the company has put as much effort into greening their operations as they have put into their product line. They were voted Most Sustainable Enterprise in Flanders Belgium, the location of their corporate headquarters. Bravo! These are the sorts of companies that help us “vote” for change with our dollars.
