Have you ever been slightly confused about how to use your cloths once you actually get them? Wished you would have taken better notes at the last Norwex party you attended? Struggling to locate your consultants’ business card to ask a few questions? No need to worry anymore! Norwex microfiber products now feature our new packaging, starting with the EnviroCloth, Window Cloth and Dusting Mitt, the Basic Package, and Household Package. I am so excited that Norwex has taken this step toward better customer education while still maintaining their care for the environment.
On the front of the new packaging, Norwex proudly claims that their “Microfiber has the ability to remove up to 99% of bacteria from a surface when following proper care and use instructions.” The back side and the inside of the package recaps the care and use instructions. No space is wasted on this small piece of packaging! These instructions are written in English, French and Spanish. Now you can just save this piece of packaging as reference material or you can recycle it!
I love that this piece of packaging protects the product and educates the customer, but is still recyclable! According to the Natural Resources Defense Council, “Recyclable postconsumer packaging with an estimated market value of $11.4 billion is wasted annually. Less than 14 percent of plastic packaging — the fastest-growing form of packaging — is recycled” (NRDC, 2015). What a lot of waste! There is a need to protect a product, but I am so glad that Norwex has made the environment a priority as they have moved in this direction. So please, when you receive your Norwex product in this packaging, recycle the sleeve and then enjoy your new cloth!
