Myth-Busting on a Grand Scale: One of our missions is to debunk myths in the cleaning industry. We want to address misconceptions head-on.

The Power of Storytelling: We believe in the power of storytelling, and what better medium than television to tell our story?

Choosing Shark Tank India wasn't just about securing an investment; it was about leveraging a powerful medium to amplify our message. We're here to disrupt, to challenge, and to inspire change in the cleaning industry.

]]>When we’re in the store looking for our monthly list of groceries and supplies, we automatically pick the yellow bottle of Vim Dishwashing Gel and put it in our cart. Vim is a staple part of the lives of us Indians, it’s been in the market for quite a while. A product that is a renowned household name, but what really goes in?
According to Hindustan Unilever, Vim was launched in 1993. It was the original hand dishwashing brand that created the category and is the market leader in the dishwashing segment. Vim was the first brand to introduce Dishwash gel in India in 2005 and has been the leader in the segment. Vim products claim to have the “power of 100 lemons”, which apparently, gives you complete cleaning without leaving any residue.
Vim is known for its tagline of carrying the power of 100 lemons. However, after going through the back label and their website, there is no mention of 100 lemons in their dishwashing liquid ingredients but there is a mention of concentrated lime juice which we found on their website. You will find a small text written at the back of the product: “Power refers to the cleaning benefits of lemons as per independent lab study”.
Most home care products do not need to list their ingredients and if you go looking at the Vim bar or Vim Dishwash Gel or liquid you are most likely to not find anything. However, a few websites did help in outlining the ingredients in the dishwashing detergent:
That’s a lot of scientific names and if you’re rushing to Google what these mean, we’ve got you covered.
Sodium linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) is an anionic surfactant. It is widely used as
consumer products contained in laundry detergents and kitchen detergents. If used in significant quantity, it can cause serious eye damage. It is also very damaging to the environment. LAS can cause toxicity for the aquatic organisms and harmful to aquatic life with long-lasting effects.
Disodium EDTA is in many products as a preservative, to stabilise it, or to enhance the foaming action. Although it doesn’t absorb particularly well into the skin, it disrupts the surface of skin cells so that other chemicals can get in more easily. EDTA inhibits the ability of metal ions, especially Mn2+, from catalysing the disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide, which is used in chlorine-free bleaching. In a similar manner, EDTA is added to some foods as a preservative. Oral exposures to the same have been noted to cause reproductive and developmental effects.
Sodium laureth sulfate (SLES), is an anionic detergent and surfactant found in many personal care products (soaps, shampoos, toothpaste, etc.) and for industrial uses. SLES is an inexpensive and very effective foaming agent. Like many other detergents, SLES is an irritant. It has also been shown that SLES causes eye or skin irritation in experiments conducted. SLES may also be contaminated with a substance called 1,4-dioxane, which is known to cause cancer in laboratory animals.
Lime Juice contains citric acid, which helps in cleaning your utensils and it’s strong smell also helps in making sure there is no odour left behind.
Tartrazine is a synthetic lemon yellow azo dye primarily used as a food colouring. Tartrazine appears to cause the most allergic and intolerance reactions of all the azo dyes, particularly among asthmatics and those with an aspirin intolerance. A 2015 study found that Yellow 5 caused damage to white blood cells, which may make the development of tumours and diseases such as cancer more likely.
C.I. 42051, is a sky blue synthetic triphenylmethane dye used as a food colouring. The colour of the dye is pH-dependent. In aqueous solution, its colour will vary from a deep blue in alkaline or weakly acidic medium to a yellow–orange in stronger acidic conditions. Patent Blue V is banned as a food dye in Australia and US, because health officials in these countries suspect that it may cause allergic reactions, with symptoms ranging from itching and nettle rash to nausea, hypotension, and in rare cases anaphylactic shock.
All this seems overwhelming, am I right? You could look at alternatives that are safer for you especially if you hand wash dishes as there is a risk that some residue may be left on your dishes post wash. You should look for dishwashing gels that are gentle on your skin as well as on your dishes. Over the course of time, the chemicals present form a layer over your utensils that you ingest in your system 3 times a day!
Might we suggest Koparo’s Dishwashing Liquid? It is made with plant-based ingredients and no artificial colours. The formulation is PETA-certified vegan & cruelty free too!
]]>When you think floor cleaner, the name Lizol pops up right away, doesn’t it? Over the years, this disinfectant floor cleaner brand has become a household name and is hugely popular.
The cleaning performance of Lizol is made possible by chemicals. We are usually oblivious to the fact that these disinfectant floor cleaners can have chemicals that are really harmful to us because we don’t consider that to be a possibility. After all, these cleaning products are being sold by our trusted brands. But unfortunately, that is not the case.
Now let’s find out some facts about our favourite floor cleaner.
The active ingredient in Lizol is Benzalkonium Chloride (BAC). It is an ammonium compound for cleansers and detergents. Effective as it may be for cleaning purposes, it is highly toxic.
It can cause various health concerns in humans as well as animals.
Prolonged exposure to BAC has been known to cause allergen contact dermatitis (ACD), skin irritation and other skin problems. It can also lead to respiratory disorders. As per research, BAC is linked to pulmonary toxicity and inflammation because the lungs can act as a reservoir of BAC and so, a target organ for BAC toxicity.
What raises concern when using this product is the fact that it does a highly important job in keeping our homes clean. Mopping the floor is a daily routine for most everyone. It has become even more crucial in the times of COVID. Since it is a chemical-based cleaner with ammonia, it tends to leave toxic residue on the surfaces it has been on. Even if direct contact is avoided, it can still affect you.
Infants and kids are most at risk because they’re likely to be all over the floor after it has been ‘cleaned’. And pets, whom we often forget about. BAC can be harmful to pets just the same.
By coming in contact with their bare skin when rolling on the floor and going into the body when they sneakily eat something off the floor, this ingredient can easily be ingested.
We love our brightly coloured floor cleaners so much that there is now a natural association between the colour and the fragrance which most of us can easily recall. But this bright colour is a big thumbs down for safety.
The colour in these floor cleaners comes from synthetic dyes. They don’t serve any other purpose in the cleaner apart from giving it a distinctive colour. While it is great for increasing the attractiveness of the product so that people buy it off the shelves, these synthetic dyes are very harmful for our health. Various synthetic dyes have been linked to cancer, heavy metals in them can harm the nervous system. The worst part about this is that the colour adds nothing to its effectiveness!
One way of avoiding exposure to BAC is the use of protective wear, like gloves, while cleaning. But, as already mentioned, it does not guarantee anything as once the floor cleaner is left on the floor there still remains a high risk of getting in contact with the harmful chemicals.
Koparo Floor Cleaner is plant powered and hence doesn’t have any harmful chemicals like ammonia, bleach or phosphates. It is BAC free and uses no artificial dyes. Opt for a gentler floor cleaner that cleans just as well without the toxic chemicals.

That sounds like greek to most unless you are a chemical engineer or just obsessed with laundry detergent ingredients (like us). So here’s a crash course.
Anti-redeposition agents are common additives in laundry detergents that prevent dirt and soil from settling back onto clothes during the washing process. One of the primary concerns with anti-redeposition agents is their potential to cause skin irritation, cancer, asthma and allergic reactions. This is because these agents are often made from synthetic materials, such as polyvinyl alcohol, which can be harsh on sensitive skin. Additionally, the particles in anti-redeposition agents can become embedded in cloth fibers and irritate the skin even after the clothes have been washed.
Sodium sulfate is a commonly used compound in various industries, but exposure to large quantities can have harmful effects. It can cause skin, eye, and respiratory irritation, dehydration, gastrointestinal issues, and kidney damage. Additionally, if it is released into waterways, it can have a negative impact on the environment by causing oxygen depletion and harming aquatic life. It's important to handle sodium sulfate with care and to seek medical attention if exposure occurs.
Sodium perborate, a white crystalline powder, is used in various household applications as a bleach, disinfectant, and laundry detergent booster. Exposure to large amounts or over prolonged periods can cause harmful effects. It can irritate the skin, causing dryness, redness, and itching. Contact with the eyes can cause irritation, redness, tearing, and permanent vision loss. Inhaling sodium perborate can lead to respiratory problems such as coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. Ingesting it can cause gastrointestinal problems, including nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and in severe cases, even death.
The production and use of fabric whiteners contribute to air and water pollution, which can have negative impacts on human health. Exposure to fabric whiteners can cause skin and eye irritation and respiratory problems, especially for people with asthma or other respiratory conditions. Moreover, fabric whiteners can weaken the fibers of clothing over time, leading to the need for more frequent replacement and ultimately contributing to textile waste.
Next time you do your laundry, take a moment to think about the impact of your detergent on your health and the environment. By making a small change and switching to a detergent brand like Koparo Laundry Liquid, you can make a big difference in the world we live in.
Our formula is made without adding phosphates, optical brighteners, and bleach, making it safe for your health and the environment. We use plant-based surfactants and mild hypoallergenic fragrances, ensuring that our product is gentle on your skin and leaves your clothes smelling fresh and clean.

But have you ever stopped to wonder what's really inside those little bottles of fragrances? While air fresheners can make our homes smell fantastic, they may also contain harmful ingredients that can be detrimental to our health. In this blog post, we'll take a closer look at some of the potentially harmful chemicals found in typical air fresheners and why you might want to consider alternatives like Koparo.
That sounds like Greek to most unless you are a chemical engineer or just obsessed with air freshener ingredients (like us). So here’s a crash course.
Amyl Cinnamal is a common fragrance ingredient found in many cosmetic and cleaning products, but it has harmful effects on both human health and the environment. This chemical can cause skin irritation, respiratory problems, and even endocrine disruption. Additionally, Amyl Cinnamal contributes to environmental pollution, harming aquatic life and ecosystems. It's important to be aware of the potential risks of this chemical and to choose products that don't contain it.
Cis-3-Hexenyl Salicylate is a known skin irritant and can cause contact dermatitis, which is a condition that results in redness, itching, and swelling of the skin. It can also contribute to environmental pollution when released into the air or water, causing harm to aquatic life and ecosystems. It's important to be aware of the potential risks of this chemical and choose products that don't contain it to protect both ourselves and the environment.
Fragrance ingredients like methyl ionone are often added to many personal care products and household cleaners but it has various hazardous effects on human health. It has potential harmful effects on both human health and the environment. This chemical is a known skin irritant that can cause contact dermatitis, as well as respiratory problems such as asthma and bronchitis. Furthermore it can interfere in hormone function, leading to potential health effects.
Hexyl Cinnamal is a fragrance ingredient that is commonly used in personal care and household products. While it may give off a pleasant scent, this chemical has potential harmful effects on human health. One of the most common ill effects of Hexyl Cinnamal is skin irritation. It can cause contact dermatitis, which is a condition that results in redness, itching, and swelling of the skin. This can be especially problematic for people with sensitive skin, as they are more prone to developing this type of reaction.

Choosing between powder and liquid detergent often boils down to personal preference. Powder is excellent for those who want a more eco-friendly option, as it often comes in cardboard packaging. Liquid detergent, on the other hand, is favored for its convenience and ability to dissolve quickly. It's a matter of what suits your lifestyle best!
Liquid detergent is the superhero when it comes to tackling tough stains. Its pre-dissolved formula ensures that it penetrates fabric fibers more effectively, giving it the upper hand against those stubborn coffee or wine stains.
Powder detergent usually wins in the budget department. It tends to be less expensive per load, making it a go-to for frugal laundry-doers. Plus, it has a longer shelf life, so you won't have to worry about it going to waste.
Both types are generally safe for your washing machine, but liquid detergent is less likely to leave residue that can clog your machine over time. If you're concerned about your machine's longevity, liquid may be the better choice.
Liquid detergent often comes with handy measuring caps, ensuring you get the right amount every time. Say goodbye to the accidental detergent avalanches in your machine!
Liquid detergent is often the preferred choice for septic systems. Its liquid form is less likely to leave behind residue that could harm your septic tank, promoting a more eco-friendly laundry routine.
In hard water areas, liquid detergent has an edge. It's less likely to leave behind mineral deposits on your clothes, keeping them softer and your colors brighter.
Now that we've dissected the powder vs. liquid debate, let's introduce a game-changer: Koparo Laundry Liquid. This liquid detergent combines the best of both worlds – the convenience of liquid and the effectiveness of a stain-busting powerhouse. It's 100% vegan, PETA-certified cruelty-free, and planet-friendly, making it a fantastic choice for those who want a laundry experience that's good for their clothes and the environment. Plus, it's safe for kids and pets, so you can keep those little adventurers' clothes clean and cozy.
In conclusion, the age-old rivalry between powder and liquid detergent will likely persist, but with options like Koparo Laundry Liquid, you can enjoy the benefits of both. The ultimate choice boils down to your personal preferences and laundry needs. So, go ahead, make laundry day a breeze, and keep your clothes fresh and clean – no matter which side of the detergent debate you stand on!

Essential oils are potent and concentrated, so it's crucial to dilute them properly with carrier oils before applying them to your hair or skin. This helps avoid potential irritation and sensitivity.
The safety of essential oils lies in their purity. Always purchase 100% pure essential oils from reputable sources to ensure their quality and efficacy. While these oils are generally safe when used correctly, it's crucial to perform a patch test before using them on a larger area to check for any adverse reactions.

When diluted with a carrier oil, it can be used in massage blends or added to a warm bath for relaxation.

Ah, the trusty sponge, our go-to cleaning companion. But are you using it everywhere in your bathroom? If so, you may be making a common cleaning mistake that can spread germs and bacteria rather than eliminate them. Let's dive into why using the same sponge everywhere is a cleaning faux pas that you should avoid.
When we clean our bathroom, we encounter various surfaces, each with its own set of contaminants. From the toilet seat to the sink, and the shower walls to the countertops, these surfaces harbor different types of dirt, grime, and bacteria. Using the same sponge to clean them all can lead to cross-contamination, allowing germs to transfer from one area to another.
Imagine wiping down your toilet bowl with the same sponge and then using it to clean your bathroom mirror. Not only is this unhygienic, but it can also leave behind unpleasant residue and odors. Yikes!
To prevent the spread of germs, it's essential to use separate sponges or cleaning tools for different areas of your bathroom. Consider having a designated sponge for the toilet, one for the sink and countertops, and another for the shower or bathtub. This way, you'll minimize the risk of transferring bacteria and maintain a higher level of cleanliness.
In the pursuit of a clean and sparkling bathroom, many of us turn to chemical cleaners without giving it a second thought. However, using toxic chemical cleaners can be a significant mistake that can harm both our health and the environment. Let's explore why opting for safer alternatives is a wise choice for your bathroom cleaning routine.
Traditional chemical cleaners often contain harsh ingredients such as ammonia, bleach, and phosphates. While they may effectively remove dirt and grime, they also release harmful fumes that can irritate our respiratory system and exacerbate existing health conditions. Prolonged exposure to these chemicals can lead to various health issues, including respiratory problems, allergies, and skin irritations.
Thankfully, there are plenty of safe and effective alternatives available for cleaning your bathroom. Natural ingredients such as vinegar, baking soda, lemon juice, and essential oils can work wonders in removing stains, disinfecting surfaces, and leaving your bathroom smelling fresh.
For example, a mixture of vinegar and water can be used to tackle soap scum and hard water stains, while baking soda is excellent for scrubbing and deodorizing. Essential oils like tea tree oil and lavender oil have natural antibacterial properties and can be added to your homemade cleaning solutions for an extra boost.
When it comes to bathroom cleaning, one area that is often overlooked is the taps and showerheads. It's easy to focus on the visible surfaces and forget about these smaller fixtures, but neglecting them can lead to issues down the line. Let's explore why paying attention to your taps and showerheads is essential for maintaining a clean and functional bathroom.
Over time, mineral deposits, limescale, and soap scum can build up on taps and showerheads, affecting their performance and appearance. The accumulation of these deposits can result in reduced water flow, uneven spray patterns, and even clogged nozzles. Ignoring these issues can lead to frustration during your showers and can also contribute to a less hygienic bathroom environment.
To prevent these problems, it's important to regularly clean and descale your taps and showerheads. A simple and effective method is to use a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water. Fill a plastic bag with the solution and secure it around the tap or showerhead using a rubber band, ensuring that the affected areas are fully immersed in the vinegar solution. Leave it for a few hours or overnight to allow the vinegar to dissolve the mineral deposits. Afterward, remove the bag and scrub the fixtures with a soft brush to remove any remaining residue. Finally, rinse thoroughly with water to ensure all traces of vinegar are removed.
Sounds exhausting, get your hands on our tap and shower cleaner for immediate results:
Regularly cleaning and descaling your taps and showerheads not only helps to maintain their functionality but also improves the overall appearance of your bathroom. By doing so, you can enjoy a consistent water flow, and a refreshing shower experience, and ensure that your bathroom remains a clean and inviting space.
One of the most crucial yet commonly neglected aspects of bathroom cleaning is the regular maintenance of the toilet bowl. Understandably, cleaning the toilet bowl may not be the most glamorous task, but ignoring it can lead to a host of hygiene issues and unpleasant odors. Let's explore why it's essential to make cleaning the toilet bowl a priority in your bathroom cleaning routine.
The toilet bowl is a prime breeding ground for bacteria, germs, and unpleasant stains. Over time, mineral deposits, hard water stains, and even mold and mildew can accumulate in the bowl, making it not only unsightly but also unhygienic. Neglecting the regular cleaning of the toilet bowl can result in the growth of harmful bacteria, leading to potential health risks for you and your family.
To maintain a clean and odor-free toilet bowl, it's recommended to clean it at least once a week or more frequently if necessary. Start by wearing protective gloves and using a toilet bowl cleaner that is specifically designed to eliminate germs and remove stains. Apply the cleaner to the inside of the bowl, ensuring that it reaches under the rim and covers the entire surface. Use a toilet brush to scrub the bowl thoroughly, paying extra attention to any stained or hard-to-reach areas. After scrubbing, allow the cleaner to sit for a few minutes to effectively break down stains and kill germs. Finally, flush the toilet to rinse away the cleaner and reveal a sparkling clean bowl.
The mirrors in your bathroom play a pivotal role in enhancing its visual appeal. A hazy or streaked mirror not only compromises the aesthetics but also creates inconvenience during grooming routines. Overlooking mirror cleaning can be a grave cleaning blunder. Ensure pristine mirrors by employing a glass cleaner and a gentle microfiber cloth. Steer clear of paper towels or ordinary clothes as they tend to leave lint and streak marks. Embrace mirror maintenance to uphold the allure of your bathroom and enjoy a crystal-clear reflection every time.
A well-maintained mirror adds a touch of elegance to your bathroom, while a foggy or streaky mirror can be a major eyesore. Neglecting mirror cleaning is a common cleaning mistake that can easily be avoided. Keep your mirrors crystal clear by using a specialized glass cleaner and a soft, lint-free cloth. Say goodbye to smudges and streaks, and hello to a mirror that reflects your bathroom's beauty flawlessly. Don't overlook this essential step in your cleaning routine for a bathroom that shines and sparkles from every angle.
Use this super saver combo to up your shiny mirror selfie game:
<combo - all purpose + microfiber towel>
In conclusion, avoiding these common bathroom cleaning mistakes can save you time, money, and frustration in the long run. By staying on top of regular cleaning, using the right tools and products, and paying attention to often overlooked areas, you can maintain a clean and inviting bathroom environment. Remember, a little effort goes a long way in keeping your bathroom fresh, hygienic, and enjoyable for everyone. So, say goodbye to cleaning mishaps and hello to a bathroom that sparkles with cleanliness and radiates a welcoming ambiance. Happy cleaning!
]]>The back-to-school season is an exciting time for children, filled with new friends, learning opportunities, and adventures. However, the arrival of rainy weather during this period can sometimes put a damper on the fun. In this guide, we will explore essential tips and strategies to help children stay healthy and make the most out of the back-to-school season, even when it's pouring outside. From boosting their immune system to staying active indoors, we'll cover everything they need to know to stay healthy, happy, and ready to embrace the rainy weather!
During the rainy season, it's crucial to prioritize our immune system to ward off any potential illnesses. For children, this means eating a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. These foods provide the necessary nutrients to support their immune system's function and keep them strong. Encourage them to drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and flush out toxins. Additionally, remind them of the importance of getting enough sleep to help their immune system regenerate and strengthen itself. Creating a bedtime routine can be a fun way to ensure they get the rest they need.
Teaching children good hygiene habits is vital to prevent the spread of germs and keep them healthy during the rainy season. Make sure they understand the importance of regular handwashing with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Show them the proper technique and encourage them to wash their hands before meals, after using the restroom, and when they come home from school. If soap and water are not readily available, provide them with hand sanitizers containing at least 60% alcohol and teach them how to use it correctly. Remind them to cover their mouth and nose with a tissue or their elbow when coughing or sneezing and to avoid touching their face.
When rainy weather keeps children indoors, it's essential to find ways to keep them active and engaged. Encourage them to participate in indoor exercises such as yoga, dancing, or fun workout routines designed for kids. There are numerous online resources and videos available that can make staying active indoors exciting and enjoyable. Consider setting up a designated area in your home where they can jump, stretch, and play safely. You can also organize family dance parties or engage in active indoor games that get everyone moving. The goal is to ensure that they get their daily dose of physical activity, even when they can't go outside to play.
A clean environment is crucial for your child's health and well-being, especially during the rainy season. Encourage them to help keep their living space tidy by regularly cleaning and disinfecting frequently-touched surfaces, such as doorknobs, light switches, and electronic devices. Make cleaning a fun activity by turning it into a game or playing their favorite music while they clean. Teach them about using eco-friendly cleaning products that are safe for both their health and the environment. Opening windows when weather permits can improve indoor air circulation and freshness. It's also important to keep their personal belongings, such as backpacks and lunchboxes, clean and organized to prevent the buildup of germs.
The rainy weather may sometimes affect children's mood and energy levels. Help them maintain a positive mindset and uplift their spirits by engaging in activities that bring them joy. Encourage them to read their favorite books, explore their creative side through arts and crafts, or listen to music that makes them feel happy. Set up a cozy reading nook or create an art station where they can express themselves freely. Spend quality time together as a family, playing games, and having fun indoor picnics or movie nights. Remind them to practice relaxation techniques like deep breathing or guided meditation to reduce stress and anxiety.
With these essential tips and strategies, children can navigate the rainy weather with a healthy and positive mindset. By boosting their immune system, practicing good hygiene, staying active indoors, keeping their environment clean, and focusing on activities that uplift their mood, they can make the most out of the back-to-school season, rain or shine. Remember to involve them in the process, making it a fun and engaging experience. Together, let's ensure that they stay healthy, happy, and ready for the exciting adventures that await them during this special time of year!

We believe in "wash wiser, wear longer, and waste less," and we're proud to say that our fabric conditioner can help achieve that. It's easy to forget that every day, tens of millions of garments are tossed out to make way for new ones. It is estimated that people are buying 60% more clothes and wearing them for half as long. The fast fashion business model is causing serious ecological damage.
However, the fast fashion business model of quick turnover, high volume, and cheap prices is under pressure from consumers who are demanding change. They want resilient garments from a sustainable industry, a goal supported by the UN Alliance for Sustainable Fashion. As consumers become more aware of the impact of fast fashion on the environment, they're looking for alternatives that are kinder to the planet and more sustainable in the long run.
The biggest positive impacts can come from - elongating the life of a garment, reducing transportation, and focusing on sustainable materials.
By using our plant-based fabric conditioner, you can make your clothes last longer. Fabric conditioners work by coating fibres with conditioners that make the fabrics feel softer to the touch. These conditioners also cause fibres to slide against each other more easily to make fabrics feel softer, reduce wear and tear, increase stain resistance, and reduce static cling.
Mira Kapoor's endorsement of our fabric conditioner is a testament to our commitment to sustainability and clean living. As a millennial Mom, Mira understands the importance of making sustainable choices for herself and future generations. She knows that by choosing products like ours, we can make a positive impact on the planet.
We're proud to have Mira Kapoor endorse our fabric conditioner, and we're excited to continue our mission of making sustainable living accessible and enjoyable for everyone. Let's wash wiser, wear longer, and waste less together.

Keeping your home clean and tidy can be a challenging task, especially if you don't have the right tools. One of the most versatile and efficient cleaning tools you can have in your cleaning arsenal is a microfiber duster.
Whether you're a seasoned cleaning pro or just getting started, understanding what a microfiber duster is and how to use it effectively can make a significant difference in the cleanliness of your home. In this blog, we'll take a closer look at the microfiber duster and explore some of the best uses for this versatile cleaning tool.
A microfiber duster is a cleaning tool that is made of microfiber cloth, a synthetic fabric that is made of tiny fibers that are 100 times thinner than a human hair. These fibers are densely packed together, creating a soft, fluffy texture that is ideal for cleaning. Microfiber dusters are used to dust surfaces and objects around the house, such as furniture, shelves, lamps, and other delicate items.
One of the most common uses for a microfiber duster is dusting furniture. Microfiber dusters are ideal for dusting delicate items, such as wooden furniture, as they trap dust and debris effectively without scratching the surface. They can also be used to dust electronic devices, such as televisions and computer screens, as they are gentle and do not leave streaks.
Microfiber dusters are great for cleaning hard-to-reach areas, such as ceiling fans, light fixtures, and high shelves. Their soft and flexible fibers can easily bend and reach tight spaces, making them perfect for cleaning high and narrow areas.
Blinds and curtains can quickly accumulate dust and other debris, making them look dull and unattractive. Microfiber dusters are an excellent tool for cleaning blinds and curtains, as they can trap and remove dust and dirt effectively without damaging the material.
Microfiber dusters are also great for cleaning cars. They can effectively remove dust and debris from car interiors and exteriors without leaving scratches or streaks. They can be used to clean the dashboard, seats, and other surfaces in the car.
If you have pets, you know how difficult it can be to remove pet hair from furniture and floors. Microfiber dusters are great for cleaning pet hair, as their fibers can trap hair and other debris effectively. They are also gentle on surfaces, making them safe to use on furniture and other delicate items.
Using a microfiber duster is a simple and easy process. Shake the duster to remove any debris, gently run it over the surface to be cleaned, and wash it in cold water when it gets dirty. Avoid using hot water or cleaning agents that can damage the fibers. Repeat the process as needed.
So, if you haven't already used, consider adding a Koparo microfiber duster to your cleaning arsenal to make your cleaning tasks more manageable and efficient with Koparo clean.

]]>Enter the sponge wipe – a versatile and durable cleaning tool that is quickly becoming a household staple. But how exactly do these magical wipes work? Let's dive in and find out.
First, let's take a look at what sponge wipes are made of. Most sponge wipes are made from a combination of cellulose, a plant-based material, and cotton. The cellulose gives the sponge its absorbent properties, while the cotton provides durability and strength. Some sponge wipes also feature a scrubbing side, made from a more abrasive material like nylon or polyester, which is great for tackling tough stains and grime.
Let's take a closer look:
One of the key features of sponge wipes is their ability to absorb liquids quickly and efficiently. The cellulose material in the sponge is able to hold up to 20 times its weight in water, making it ideal for wiping up spills, cleaning up messes, and washing dishes.
In addition to absorbing liquids, sponge wipes also have a scrubbing side that can be used to remove stubborn dirt and grime. The scrubbing side is typically made from a more abrasive material, such as nylon or polyester, which helps to break up and remove tough stains.
Sponge wipes are designed to be durable and long-lasting. Unlike paper towels, which are meant to be used once and then thrown away, sponge wipes can be washed and reused multiple times. This not only saves money in the long run, but also reduces waste and helps to protect the environment.
Sponge wipes are also designed to be hygienic. The cellulose material is naturally resistant to bacteria and mold growth, which helps to prevent the spread of germs in your home. Additionally, many sponge wipes are machine washable, which makes it easy to keep them clean and germ-free.
Scotch-Brite sponge wipes are made from cellulose. It claims to be made of natural fibers.
Koparo sponge wipes are made of a biodegradable and durable mixture of cellulose and cotton. The resulting cloth is extremely absorbent and strong. It can absorb 13 times its weight in liquid, but easily wrings, minimizing bacteria and mildew growth. And it’s machine-washable up to almost 300 times — which means that a single sponge cloth can replace up to 14 rolls of paper towels.
This is done during the manufacturing process to protect the cellulose structure and to allow for easy storage and shipping without damaging the wipes. Some times cleaning solutions are also added to enhance efficacy.
In conclusion, sponge wipes are a sustainable and versatile cleaning tool that offer a range of benefits over traditional disposable cleaning products. From their absorbency and durability to their hygiene and reusability, sponge wipes are a smart and eco-friendly choice for any household.
So, next time you're stocking up on cleaning supplies, consider giving Koparo sponge wipes a try – your wallet and the planet will thank you.
]]>Dusting can be a tedious and time-consuming task, but it's essential for keeping our homes clean and free of dust and allergens. If you're like most people, you probably use a traditional dusting cloth to wipe down surfaces, but have you ever considered switching to a microfiber cloth?
While it may seem like a small change, using a microfiber cloth for dusting can make a big difference in the cleanliness and health of your home.
Microfiber is a synthetic fabric made from a blend of polyester and polyamide (nylon) fibers. These fibers are incredibly thin, typically much thinner than a human hair, which gives microfiber its characteristic softness, durability, and ability to trap dust and dirt. The exact composition of microfiber can vary, but the vast majority of microfiber fabrics are made from a blend of polyester and polyamide fibers.
Microfiber cloths are versatile and can be used for a variety of cleaning tasks around the house. Here are some common uses for microfiber cloths:
Microfiber cloths are great for dusting surfaces like furniture, electronics, and decorative items. Their fine fibers trap dust and debris, making it easy to wipe surfaces clean.
Microfiber cloths are excellent for cleaning glass surfaces like windows and mirrors, as they do not leave streaks or lint behind.
Microfiber cloths are highly absorbent and can be used to quickly wipe up spills and messes on counters, tables, and floors.
Microfiber cloths can be used to clean bathroom surfaces like sinks, counters, and shower stalls. They can effectively remove soap scum and other types of grime without the need for harsh chemicals.
Microfiber cloths are great for polishing surfaces like stainless steel appliances and chrome fixtures. They can leave a streak-free shine without the need for chemical cleaners.
Microfiber cloths are often considered to be superior to cotton cloths for certain cleaning tasks. This is due to a number of factors, including their absorbency, durability, and cleaning performance. Microfiber cloths are highly absorbent, with the thousands of tiny strands in their fibers increasing their surface area and allowing them to absorb more water and dirt than cotton. They are also more durable than cotton, able to withstand frequent use and washing without losing their shape or effectiveness
Yes, microfiber cloths are known for their durability and can last a long time if cared for properly. The lifespan of a microfiber cloth will depend on several factors, including the quality of the cloth, how often it is used, and how it is cared for. Generally, a high-quality microfiber cloth can last up to hundreds of washes if it is washed correctly and not exposed to excessive heat or harsh chemicals.
The type of microfiber cloth you can buy should depends on the specific cleaning task at hand. For general cleaning tasks, a standard microfiber cleaning cloth with a medium density and texture should be sufficient. By using the right type of microfiber cloth for each cleaning task, you can ensure maximum effectiveness and efficiency.
Thus, there are numerous benefits to using a microfiber cloth. Microfiber cloths are more effective at trapping dust and dirt, making them a more efficient cleaning tool. They are also gentler on surfaces, which means they won't scratch delicate items or surfaces. Additionally, microfiber cloths are more sustainable and cost-effective because they can be washed and reused multiple times, reducing waste and environmental impact. Finally, microfiber cloths can help to improve indoor air quality and reduce respiratory issues for people with allergies or asthma.
By choosing to dust with a Koparo microfiber cloth, you'll not only enjoy a cleaner and healthier home, but you'll also be doing your part for the environment.
The small change of switching to a microfiber cloth can have a big impact on the cleanliness and health of your home, and can contribute to a more sustainable future for all. So next time you're dusting your home, reach for a microfiber cloth and enjoy the many benefits it has to offer.
]]>Fabric conditioner is a type of laundry product used to soften clothes and reduce static cling. It works by coating clothes fibers with a thin layer of lubrication that makes them feel softer and smoother. It reduces wrinkles, add a fresh scent, protect fabrics from wear and tear, and prevents static cling. Adding fabric conditioner to the washing machine during the rinse cycle can help keep clothes feeling soft, looking fresh, and lasting longer.
Fabric softeners, like Comfort, are a popular addition to many laundry routines, but the truth is that they contain certain chemicals that can have lasting effects on your well-being and the planet. In this blog, we will take a closer look at the composition of Comfort fabric conditioner, and how you should make an informed choice whether to use it or not.
The only way to know this is to understand what these ingredients mean and what potential side effects they could have.
Benzisothiazolinone (BIT) is a chemical preservative used in a wide range of personal care and household products. However, it can have harmful effects on both human health and the environment. BIT can cause skin irritation, respiratory problems, and allergic reactions. Moreover, BIT has been classified as a possible human carcinogen, indicating its potential to cause cancer in humans.
BMP is a synthetic compound that can cause skin irritation and allergic reactions, including contact dermatitis. In addition to its effects on human health, BMP is also known to be harmful to the environment. Furthermore, BMP has been found to be persistent in the environment and can even accumulate in the tissues of fish and other aquatic organisms.
Hexyl Cinnamal, also known as HCA, is a fragrance ingredient used in a variety of personal care and cleaning products. While it is added to these products to provide a pleasant scent, it can also have harmful effects on human health and the environment. HCA is a synthetic compound that can cause skin irritation, especially in individuals with sensitive skin. It is also known to cause allergic reactions, including contact dermatitis. When it is washed down the drain, it can accumulate in waterways and have toxic effects on aquatic life. Therefore, it is important to choose products that do not contain this ingredient to avoid potential health risks and protect the environment.
In conclusion, it is important to be mindful of the ingredients found in Comfort Fabric Conditioner and other fabric softeners. Therefore, it is important to choose fabric softeners wisely and instead opt for more natural and eco-friendly alternatives like Koparo fabric conditioners, made with plant-based ingredients and essential oils, Koparo Fabric Conditioner softens clothes while leaving behind a refreshing scent.

]]>Winter is here! Your boots will be ruined by winter. In the winter, felt, leather, suede, synthetic materials, and yes, even rubber boots, need special care to avoid being damaged by the icy weather, salt streets, abrasive sands, and grimy sidewalks. Learn quick ways to keep various materials clean before you lose the battle, and then make some premixed boot cleaner in a spray bottle to keep on hand for whenever the need comes. Your boots will last longer, look less worn over time, and help to ensure that they retain their weatherproof qualities if you clean them after use in dirty conditions.
I've outlined my thorough cleaning procedure for boots (and other items) below. You might not need to follow every step to get your item clean, based on how dirty it is. Try it out and see how clean your boots can get!
Brush firmly and back and forth across light spots on boots, or use a magic eraser to remove specific stains.
Try rubbing alcohol or white vinegar on a damp towel to remove heavier stains on boots. Circularly rub the stain with dampened cloth, then leave the area to completely dry. When the fabric is dry, use a brush to fluff it back up and remove any loose dirt.
For a more in-depth step-by-step, read on!
When taken care of properly, boots can last for decades. You can keep boots in good condition by quickly clearing away dirt, mud, salt, and other debris with basic household items. Before wearing your clean boots, spray them with a protective coating, and then store them in a soft muslin bag in your closet to prevent dust buildup.

]]>After Christmas, Valentine's Day is the holiday with the second-highest card-giving volume, with over one billion cards exchanged. These cards are frequently covered in glitter, laminated in plastic, or otherwise embellished so that they cannot be recycled. Giving chocolate is customary throughout the Christmas season, but most of it is produced in an unethical manner. While all this gifting is amazing for self-expression and we are mushing over all the love messages, there is a darker side to this level of gift exchanges.
Valentine's Day may be quite harmful to the environment when we look at the waste generated from items like balloons, soft toys and decorations are added up. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
Valentine's Day is a perfect opportunity to show someone you care about them because the holiday is all about celebrating love, whether that love is for a romantic partner, close friend, or member of the family. There are various methods to accomplish this in a way that is ethical, sustainable, and earth-friendly.
Here are some eco-friendly suggestions for Valentine's Day presents
Buying fair-trade chocolate supports fair wages and safe working conditions for workers and farmers involved in the production of chocolate. Additionally, fair-trade certification often requires that farmers adhere to environmentally friendly practices. By purchasing fair-trade chocolate, you can feel good about supporting ethical and sustainable practices in the chocolate industry.
Buying a durable, long-lasting present for someone can be a thoughtful and practical gift. By using your listening and observation skills, you can identify something that the recipient actually needs, such as an insulated mug, piece of art, or a necessary item like a pair of gloves. This type of gift shows that you have put thought and care into the present, and it will likely be used and appreciated for a long time.
Creating a handmade, homemade card for your loved one can be a thoughtful and personal way to express your feelings. Using recycled paper to make the card not only adds a unique touch, but it also helps to conserve natural resources and reduce waste. It can be a more sentimental and eco-friendly way to show your love.
Planting flowers instead of picking wildflowers is a sustainable and eco-friendly way to enjoy nature and show someone you care. When you plant flowers, you are not only providing a beautiful and meaningful gift, but also helping to promote biodiversity and conserve wildflowers. Planting a flower garden, or even a small container garden, also helps to improve air quality and provide habitat for wildlife. This can be a great way to spend time together, a nice way to show your love for each other and for nature while spending time together.
Eating a farm-to-table meal can be a romantic and sustainable way to celebrate Valentine's Day. By choosing to eat locally sourced, seasonal, and organic food, you are supporting small farmers, reducing the carbon footprint associated with the transportation of food, and promoting healthy and sustainable food systems. Eating a meal that is made with fresh, high-quality ingredients can also be a delicious and memorable experience for you and your loved one. Plus, cooking together or enjoying a meal together is a great way to bond and create memories. So go off to that local farmer’s market and cook up a storm!
When buying jewellery, there are several ways to ensure that it is responsibly and sustainably sourced. One way is to look for jewellery made from recycled or sustainable materials, such as recycled gold or silver. Another option is to look for jewellery that is certified by organisations such as Fairtrade, which ensures that the workers involved in the production of the jewellery are paid fair wages and work in safe conditions. Additionally, you can also look for jewellery that is made by artisans using traditional techniques. This helps to preserve cultural heritage and also supports local communities.
Furthermore, consider buying from a company that is transparent about their supply chain and can demonstrate that they use ethical and sustainable practices throughout the entire process of production, from sourcing materials to manufacturing, packaging and shipping.
In summary, buying jewellery responsibly and sustainably means considering the social, economic and environmental impact of the production process and supporting fair labour practices, sustainable materials and local communities.
Wrapping your Valentine's Day gift in a reusable bag is a simple yet effective way to make your gift more sustainable. Reusable bags are a great alternative to disposable wrapping paper, which often ends up in landfills and contributes to environmental waste.
Wrapping your gift in a reusable bag not only makes your gift more sustainable, but it can also be a thoughtful and practical way to show that you care about the environment and the future of the planet.
By choosing eco-friendly options for Valentine's Day, you can celebrate love in a way that is kind to the planet and to the people who produce the gifts.
