Did you know that over 51,000 trees, and 356 million gallons of water, are required every single day to feed our paper towel addiction?
And that's just in the US alone.

ZWS was founded by young conservationist Sarah Cieslinski. As a passionate environmentalist, she started selling shampoo bars as a way of spreading the word that we have options, and it soon gave birth to what is now the very popular Zero Waste Store.
Over 51,000 trees, and 356 Million gallons of water are required every single day to feed our paper towel addiction. That's just in the US alone... It's time for a change.
Aside from it's production, they add ~3,000 tons of weight annually to landfills, where it produces methane as it breaks down. Which is greenhouse gas estimated to be about 30x worse than C02 in it's contribution to climate change.
I have a roll in the kitchen and one in the bathroom by the sink. We use the heck out of them! In the kitchen we grab one for drying hands, cleaning up spills, cleaning countertops, in place of napkins, I've washed dishes with them, light dusting, drying off my dogs wet paws on rainy days, cleaned my kitchen windows over the sink. In the bathroom it's kinda more of the same with drying hands and my guests think its pretty cool that they get to dry their hands on a fresh cloth each time plus the roll is so colourful with the Earth Tones. I keep a mesh cotton bag hanging on a command hook near by to put the used towels in so I can just throw them in the washer when I have a wash load ready. The mesh bag allows for air to flow through it. We hardly use paper towels anymore unless it's for example, like something gross that you'd want or have to throw away. I can already tell these will last us a long time because I have washed them a lot already since we use them so much and they still look great, the stitching is good, and they have not lost any colour.
Purchased these as a Christmas gift for my sister after I've had mine for over three years now. It’s such a simple swap to be more eco friendly in the home and in the end saves so much money! Obsessed with them is an understatement.
I used to use a roll of paper towels once a week …now I only use a roll once a month, sometimes longer! I use these paperless towels for everything to wiping my stove and kitchen counter to cleaning my pets litter box and accessories!
I use these every single day! I mostly use them for cleaning the kitchen or bathroom counters. When they get dirty I just rinse them under hot water and then ring them out and let them air dry. This system works really well for me. Once I notice that they are dirty enough to need a wash that’s what I do : )
These have surprisingly great absorption. Amazing everyday use and after washing/drying it’s nice to zone out for a bit while you re-roll them for reuse. The only downside is if you dry them for too long they will shrink a bit.
