* from post-consumer oils

The Ri-detergent line which today includes four different products with detergents also for cleaning the house and with other recycled materials such as wood ash, was born from Tea Natura's desire to combine the concept of Ecological with that of Sustainable creating what is called Circular Economy. In fact, post-consumer edible oil waste (used by members of the Solidarity Purchasing Groups of Ancona) is given back its dignity as a raw material by transforming it into a biodegradable surfactant . All this makes it possible to eliminate the problems that these waste oils would cause if dispersed into the environment, and to avoid fats from outside Europe (palm, coconut, etc.) to create the surfactant.

Currently 7 tons of post-consumer oils as a non-biodegradable product have become approximately 25 tons of detergent which degrade completely and quickly: 25,000 bottles, equal to 550,000 machine washes.

The bottles used for the Ri-Detersivo line are also produced in Braskem Bio-Plastic : a polymer obtained from ethanol produced from sugar cane which cancels the costs in terms of weight of CO2 released into the environment.
