I’ve had the pleasure of testing out a variety of eco-friendly kitchen products, and I’m excited to share a list of some of my absolute favorites. These sustainable kitchen products not only make cleaning my kitchen effortless but also enhance my experience when enjoying my favorite hot beverages. From reusable tea filters to eco-conscious scrubbers, each product has been a game-changer in reducing my plastic use while still getting the job done efficiently.

Dish Wand with Replaceable Head 

A dish wand with a replaceable head is one of the easiest and most effective swaps for a zero waste kitchen. Unlike traditional plastic dish wands that break, wear out, and end up in landfills for hundreds of years, this Redecker dish wand is built to last. It features a sustainably sourced wooden handle and plant-based tampico fiber bristles, making it both biodegradable and compostable.

What makes this dish wand truly eco-friendly is its replaceable brush head. Instead of tossing out the entire brush when the bristles wear down, you simply swap in a new compostable replacement head, keeping the handle in use for years to come. This small change means less plastic waste in your kitchen and a lower environmental footprint.

Not only does this dish wand help you cut down on plastic waste, but it also provides scrubbing power. The tampico fibers are naturally tough on grime while still being gentle enough for delicate dish ware. Plus, with a comfortable wooden handle, you can scrub without getting your hands wet or covered in dish soap.

If you’re looking for a simple, waste-free way to keep your kitchen clean, this dish wand is a must-have. It’s a small swap with a big impact—better for your home, better for the planet, and a stylish addition to your eco friendly kitchen products.

Redecker Milk Bottle Brush

A milk bottle brush is a must-have for any kitchen, and the Redecker Milk Bottle Brush is a sustainable alternative to plastic versions that wear out quickly and end up sitting in landfills for centuries. Made from sustainably sourced wood and natural horsehair bristles, this kitchen brush is completely compostable when it reaches the end of its life—making it a guilt-free choice for eco-conscious cleaning.

One of the best things about this brush is its durability. Unlike plastic bottle cleaners that flatten, bend, or lose their scrubbing power over time, the horsehair bristles maintain their shape and effectiveness, giving you a thorough clean with every use. The bristles are also gentle enough for delicate glassware, yet firm enough to scrub away residue in milk bottles, baby bottles, water bottles, and narrow-necked jars.

To extend its lifespan, simply rinse and dry the brush after use instead of letting it soak in water. With proper care, it will last much longer than its plastic counterparts, making it an essential eco friendly kitchen tool for anyone looking to cut down on waste.

Whether you’re tackling everyday drinkware or deep-cleaning reusable bottles, this plastic-free brush is a small but powerful sustainable swap that helps keep your kitchen sustainable.

Coconut Kitchen Scourers

When it comes to tough messes in the kitchen, a good scrubber is a must—but most conventional scouring pads are made with plastic fibers that shed microplastics into your sink and eventually, our waterways. That’s why I made the switch to coconut kitchen scourers, and I’ve never looked back! These all-natural, plastic free scrubbers are a game-changer for zero waste cleaning, offering a durable, compostable alternative to synthetic scrub pads.

Made from coconut husks, these scrubbers are tough on grime but gentle on cookware, making them perfect for scrubbing stuck-on food from pots, pans, and casserole dishes without scratching. They hold up way longer than traditional green scrubbies, meaning you won’t have to replace them as often—saving both money and waste. And when they finally wear out? Just toss them in your compost bin, where they’ll break down naturally instead of sitting in a landfill for centuries.

Not only are these eco-friendly scourers a simple swap for a plastic free kitchen, but they’re also budget friendly. With no plastic, no waste, and all the scrubbing power you need, they’re an effortless way to keep your kitchen sparkling without harming the planet.

Kantha Dish Towel

When it comes to kitchen towels, finding one that’s both eco friendly and functional can be a challenge. That’s why I love the Kantha Dish Towel—it’s a true zero waste kitchen essential that combines sustainability, beauty, and long-lasting durability. These towels are fair-trade, made from recycled saris, and feature the traditional Kantha stitch, which means you’re not only getting a high-quality towel but also supporting sustainable fashion practices.

What makes these towels stand out is their absorbency and multi-use versatility. They’re perfect for drying dishes, wiping down counters, or even using as a hand towel—and because they’re made from 100% cotton, they absorb moisture like a dream. Unlike many kitchen towels, which often contain synthetic materials like polyester, these are completely plastic-free and work beautifully with the natural fibers.

I’ve had mine for years—in fact, I’ve been using one of my Kantha towels for almost eight years, and it’s still going strong! The best part? When it’s time to say goodbye, I don’t feel guilty about throwing it away because it will compost naturally, unlike conventional kitchen towels that can take decades to break down in a landfill. Plus, the fact that these towels are made from upcycled materials means they’re helping keep waste out of the landfill in the first place.

One of the most beautiful aspects of the Kantha towels is that no two are exactly the same. Each towel is a unique piece of art, thanks to the recycled saris, and at our shop, we handpick a stunning pattern just for you. They make a wonderful, sustainable gift—I’ve had many people give them as birthday, holiday, and even wedding presents.
