The fight against dirty

You've finally got your home exactly the way you want it.you've installed the high tech kitchen, the fancy granite floors and the polished wooden furniture. Your work has just begun, as you're now faced with caring for your dream house. Never fear, where there's a Method there's a way!

If you haven’t heard about Method, where have you been? Forget Mr Muscle, this stuff is seriously glam as well as being eco-friendly.

Method, developed by trendy interior design experts, is a speciality cleaning range that’s designed to target the dirt without harming surfaces – or the look of your kitchen.

Unlike conventional cleaning products, which use bleach and other chemicals to kill bugs and germs, Method cleaning products actually absorb the dirt from the surfaces, so it doesn't leave a residue to contaminate your skin and your environment.

Method is bringing environmentally friendly cleaning products to the mass market and to an elite customer base usually more concerned with design. Now you can have your kitchen cleaners out on show, and don’t have to hide them under the sink every time you have visitors. And when someone comments on them, you get the added bonus of being able to show off your environmental credentials!

The full range is also available in biodegradable wipes, for maximum convenience.

It’s not just your worktops that need a wash down though if you want to keep the bugs at bay, keeping the hands clean is the only sure fire way to do it. Some germs can stay alive on our hands for up to three hours, spreading to all the things we touch, including food and other people. Euw.

Enter Method and their ‘people against dirty’ campaign. According to Method ‘dirt’ isn’t just the stuff that gets on your hands and under your nails. It's the toxic chemicals that make up many household and body care products.

Polluting our planet with non-recyclable materials, testing products on innocent animals…according to Method, these things are dirty and Method are ‘against dirty’.

Method hand wash comes in sweet water, french lavender and green tea + aloe. All the hand washes are free from triclosan, a chemical used for its antibacterial properties in many hand soaps, known to be carcinogenic. All hand washes are made with naturally-derived, biodegradable ingredients, contain vitamin E and aloe and are absolutely never tested on animals.

The products were designed in San Francisco by New York interiors guru Karim Rashid, so they are as desirable as they are safe and effective.

Method has been available online since September and the products are now in store at select John Lewis & Waitrose stores nationwide. So sign up... for the fight against dirty!
