French, local and artisanal!
All products are made in Saint Jean d'Illac, a small town near Bordeaux. Gwendoline takes a look at the production plan and trains the team in the manufacture of these products. And last but not least, Chloé and Corentin get their hands dirty to make everything!
By purchasing Echoppe products, you support a French artisan company.
Plastic is taboo, we will all get over it
Sorry, we probably put that great saying 😅 in your head again, but it's for a good cause. Did you know that every year several million tons of plastic end up in our rivers and seas?
Let's not be afraid of words: plastic kills! It is slowly killing aquatic environments, but not only that. We eat these little fish full of plastic. And unfortunately, endocrine disruptors are found in plastic.
We know the consequences of this material. Today, there are many initiatives. Your detergent and soap do not have to be in plastic!
At Echoppe, our products are packaged to protect them so that you don't get them in a thousand pieces at home. It's still more fun. So we chose PEFC cardstock from the Dordogne. We developed a folding system so as not to use (toxic) glue on our printer - it's also in the Dordogne.
A small digression: No, we are not fans of the Dordogne, even if it is a very beautiful region. But in fact the boss is from there, so obviously we will do it as soon as we can go back to our roots 😉
In short, we digress. Our packs are 100% environmentally friendly and useful for taking care of your household products!
Soft in the dose!
The big problem with household products is that we tend to use too much, especially when they are liquid or powdered. As a result, this often toxic overflow ends up in our rivers and oceans... You get the idea, it's not great. Plus, you have to buy more often because the product runs out far too quickly. Again, it's Bibi who has to pay.
We agree that it is not the best formula, right?
Jessica and Agathe have thought of practical formats. Our detergent is solid and cuts tile by tile. You don't have to be good at math: one tile = one machine. It's as simple as an equation.
This way you can apply the right amount of detergent so that your laundry is clean. It's good for your clothes, your environment and your money (at the end of the way they have fun making poems, so cute). 😂
And for stain remover soap, it's the same idea. We made a small form of canelé to honor the people of Bordeaux. But that's mainly because the handle is more comfortable to scrub a stubborn stain. And the advantage of solid is that it lasts longer!
From organically grown ingredients to a certified organic product
Inspired by recipes you can make at home, our compositions are clean, free of controversial ingredients we can't even pronounce (hello MIT or Methylisothiazolinone for those who might say).
Our formulation wizards have selected only ingredients from nature such as baking soda, white vinegar, clay and a touch of fragrance to make it super pleasant. That's all there is. Nothing superfluous, just useful compounds to clean, dye and deodorize your laundry.
Our products respect both the environment and the skin of the whole family!
