iQ
Green messages…yada yada yada. “Use less soap, save the planet.” Now we’re really talking green. There is something about a “just-add-water” cleaning solution that appeals to my green-minded conscience. Although I remain a city girl at heart.
People Planet, a Canadian manufacturer of green cleaning products, has a winning formula for iQ, a household cleaner. The major ingredient of iQ is water. It comes in an abbreviated package; a spray bottle which you fill with tap water to dilute the cleaning product, a plant-based concentrate delivered in cartridges. After running out of detergent, just replace the cartridge and refill the original spray bottle with water.
Add a little bit of water to your all-purpose cleaner and voilá—the “keep things simplest” vibe is in effect.

A brilliantly simple idea!
Hi David, imagine if the concept becomes the norm for all cleaning solutions.
Arm & Hammer has a line like this called “Essentials.”
I really like innovations, specially when they are thought to benefit the environment, with less waste and with solution that are simple enough for everybody to understand and use. Reduced Environmental Footprint is smart for my home, smart for my planet but unfortunately not smart for my wallet, it is almost twice the price of an Hertel bottle the same size
It seems the smart wallet ain’t mine
