Chemical-free bathroom cleaning

Shiny tiles, a crystal-clear mirror and a fresh fragrance: a clean bathroom feels wonderfully inviting. Regular cleaning is important to make sure your bathroom continues to feel welcoming and relaxing – but what cleaning products should you use? Do you always need to buy a special cleaner – or are there other options?

After all, there are several good reasons not to use chemical cleaners in the bathroom:

  • Material

    Sensitive surfaces are particularly vulnerable to chemical cleaning products – due to corrosive ingredients or abrasive particles which can scratch sensitive tiles or shower trays.

  • Cost

    Many manufactured cleaning products are relatively expensive.

  • Health

    Chlorine cleaning products and other chemical cleaning agents can emit harmful gases or irritate skin, eyes or airways.

  • Environment

    Aggressive cleaning products are harmful for groundwater. Purchasing these cleaners can also generate a lot of plastic waste.

Luckily, you don’t need to buy aggressive cleaning products to make your bathroom gleam. Natural cleaners and simple everyday products are usually just as effective, far more environmentally friendly and easier on your pocket too.

Read on to find out the best ways to quickly clean your bathroom – with no chemicals whatsoever!

How can I clean the tiles in my bathroom?

The toilet, washbasin and bath are part of our regular cleaning routines – but the tiles can often be overlooked. A smooth tiled limescale-free surface is not just important for bathroom hygiene – it also helps to prevent the formation of mould. Damp limescale deposits provide an ideal environment for mould to thrive in.
It’s therefore important to clean your tiles regularly. This will keep them looking beautifully shiny and protect them from mould.

Everyday products such as acetic acid and Marseille-style soap are ideal for cleaning tiles.
