Product Notes:
If you're already familiar with Tru Earth Laundry Detergent Strips, you're well aware there are convenient alternatives to the heavy plastic bottles of liquid soap which consume resources and generate waste. But why stop there? Tru Earth Eco-Strips bring the same logic to bear on multi-surface cleaners:
Helping Save the Planet One Clean at a Time
Unlike the vast majority of conventional household cleaners – the far more ecologically sustainable model for the Tru Earth Eco-Strips is that we don't have to keep generating the need to produce, dispose of, and transport plastic containers just to lug mainly water around. We really only need to buy (or hold onto) one good spray bottle to clean hard surfaces with, since we can keep replenishing its contents indefinitely with these concentrated cleaning strips, using ordinary tap water.
Not only does this help save the environment (literally billions of plastic cleaning bottles wind up in landfills each year, even if people do try to recycle them), but it also saves space and clutter in your home. After all, a single package (coupled with a 250 ml spray bottle to dispense it) can displace the need for over 10 litres worth of multi-surface cleaning products which may be occupying the entire area under your sink. (And don't worry: whether they are the stores' own house brands that you've been using until now or a big brand's, this new type can clean as well as either one.)
Quick and Easy
The Tru Earth Multi-Surface Cleaning Strips are really easy to use. Simply roll up and insert one into a suitable spray bottle (one that holds at least 250 ml of fluid), add that much hot water, and shake it vigorously for about 30 seconds to dissolve. Or pop one into a mop bucket, add the water, and stir it up. You can even drop half a strip into your toilet bowl and use a toilet brush to stir and clean that in one fell swoop.
Versatile
Designed for household use on hard (non-porous) surfaces in the kitchen, bathroom, or other household areas, the reconstituted cleaning solution can be used on chrome, stainless steel, porcelain, ceramic tile, fibreglass, plastic, and glass... but do not use it on wood (which is too porous). It has been found to be effective on sinks, countertops, appliances (including microwaves), tiled floors, toys, and much more.
Package dimensions: 10" (25.4cm) Long; 5" (12.7cm) Wide; and 0.2" (0.5cm) Thick.
Active Ingredient:

This product is manufactured in Canada. It is vegan-friendly and has never been tested on animals.
Suggested Usage:
Each strip is designed to make 250 ml (1 cup) of multi-surface cleaner. The procedure to prepare it is as follows:
1. Detach a strip, roll it up, and insert in into a clean empty spray bottle. (Wash hands after handling the strip.).
2. Fill the bottle with 250 ml of either warm or hot water. Let it sit for 1 to 2 minutes.
3. Gently shake the bottle repeatedly to mix.
Alternatively, to prepare it in for mopping or larger jobs, again, place a strip in a pail or bucket (without rolling it up), add 250 ml of hot water, and use something like a large spatula or an old large wooden spoon (but not one you intend to use for other purposes) to stir it up until it's completely dissolved.
To truly clean non-porous surfaces: Spray the surface with the solution until it becomes thoroughly wet. For heavily soiled surfaces, a pre-clean is recommended. After cleaning, in some cases, you should rinse the surface with potable water after, such as for the food contact surfaces you might be disinfecting with it (a kitchen counter or cutting board, for example), or for surfaces and/or objects that may come into contact with children at the oral / mouthing stage of development (such as their toys or the tray of their high chair).
