Sustainability at home: Small steps, big impact

Sustainability starts with the little things. Whether you want to be more aware of waste, use less energy or make more sustainable choices in your daily life: every step counts. In this blog, we share practical tips and examples of how you can make a big impact with small adjustments. We also look at how EasyPicks products contribute to a more sustainable household.

Why choose sustainability in your home?

Sustainable living is about more than just being environmentally conscious. It’s about making choices that are good for the planet, your wallet, and your own well-being. By incorporating more sustainable habits into your home, you can:

• Reduce waste : Less waste means less impact on the environment.

• Save energy : Smart choices help reduce your energy costs.

• Setting an example : You inspire others, such as friends and family, to also live more consciously.

Small steps towards a more sustainable home

Here are some simple ways you can get started today:

1. Use refillable products

   • Disposable plastic and other single-use products are a huge burden on the environment. For example, opt for refillable toilet brushes, such as the sustainable refill pads from EasyPicks. This not only reduces waste, but also keeps your bathroom hygienically clean.

2. Choose environmentally friendly materials

   • When furnishing your home or replacing items, it is smart to choose materials that last and are recyclable. Think of silicone induction protectors, which last a long time and protect your hob from wear and tear.

3. Minimize food waste

   • Smart kitchen gadgets, such as sustainable storage containers or reusable bags, make it easier to store leftovers. This reduces food waste and saves money.

4. Save on water use

   • Small habits like taking shorter showers, installing a water-saving head on the tap and using rainwater for plants can make a big difference.

5. Reuse and upcycle

   • Think creatively about old stuff. Can you repair, reuse or give something a new function? By using things longer, you reduce the demand for new raw materials.
