Responsible family business
Although we are a traditional family business, it is important for us to stay on top of things and adopt new ways of thinking. We mind responsibility in every aspect of our operations - from manufacturing to packaging solutions.
Responsibility in our operations
Over the years, we have made many tangible investments in responsibility.
We consider environmental values in our packing and raw material selection. We are also investing in the future: currently we are trying to use recycled packaging in our products as much as possible.
By favoring our products, you too can make a value choice. Detergents and cleaning agents manufactured in Finland have a much lower impact on the environment than those imported from far-away countries. At the same time, by using them, you will show your appreciation for Finnish work and expertise. We are grateful for the trust shown in us and we promise to continue our work according to our values.
The Key Flag - a symbol of Finnish work
The Key Flag symbol of the Association for Finnish Work indicates that the products are manufactured in Finland. Our following brands have the Key Flag Symbol.
- ONNI
- WAU!
- Pihka
- Klorine
- Ilo
- Putkireiska
We can also manufacture Private Label products marked with the Key Flag.
Packaging
We strive to use a large amount of domestic packaging. We are also constantly looking for more environmentally friendly alternatives.
Our 500 ml Ilo Liquid soaps are packed in bottles made of 100% recycled plastic. The bottle of WAU! laundry detergents is made of 50% recycled plastic.
RINKI - Packaging is a good thing... as long as it recycles
We are part of Finnish RINKI system, which enables consumers to return empty packaging for recycling.
We hope that everyone will do their bit and recycle empty packaging according to their country´s recycling instructions.
In Finland, the sorting of used packaging is easy: Rinki's eco points with collection containers are installed nearby households.
Sorting and recycling are part of sustainable consumption. It is a daily environmental act that is expected from everybody. New products are produced from the recycled materials.
You can get the Finnish sorting instructions from Rinki Ltd. at: www.rinkiin.fi/en/for-households/
