How Choosing Tree-Free Products Can Help Save the Planet?

Did you know that an average tree is home to over a million living species? And, every year, we cut down 4 billion acres of trees to suffice our paper product consumption. This includes toilet paper, napkins, wipes, and other products. Simply put, our actions, as small as wiping our hands after a meal, can come with a huge, lifelong impact.

And, making the switch to tree-free compostable products can be a great way to reduce your carbon footprint and bring an impact that is healthy and green. That said, here's how switching to tree-free products like tree-free facial tissues can help you bring a greener change. Also, explore our personal favorite tree-free compostable products you can switch to today.

Tree-Free Compostable Products: Why Switch?

Regular paper-based products like napkins, toilet paper, and wipes are made straight from trees. And, with an average use span of such products being no more than 30 minutes, you wiping your hands, counters or bum might be responsible for sending the planet down the drain.

Tree-free compostable products, on the other hand, are not made from tree-based paper. In short, products like tree-free facial tissues or flushable wipes are made from plants like upcycled sugarcane bagasse.

Bagasse is a type of plant waste that is disposed of after juice is extracted from sugarcane stalks. This plant waste often ends up in landfills where it is burnt. However, we, at EcoSoul, use this plant waste and carve it into tree-free daily essentials that are simply good for the planet.

Our range of tree-free compostable products are USDA-certified for being plant-based and are also compostable. While regular paper-based products like paper napkins do break down into the soil and are biodegradable, our range of compostable essentials like eco-friendly kitchen towel paper breaks down into compost.

Simply put, paper products simply break down. However, these tree-free compostable products break down into a better version. They are designed to break down into nutrient-rich compost, which can be added to soil as manure. In short, it's a modern version of embracing a circular economy.
