Seventh Generation Disinfecting Kit Review and Giveaway

Last year, my family and I began our transformation to living Green. In this process, I was given the chance to review Seventh Generation's line of cleaning products. You can read that review here.



Needless to say that I loved their products and I am still using Seventh Generation in my home daily. I was thrilled to learn that Seventh Generation has a brand new line of Disinfecting products that include Disinfecting Wipes, Disinfecting Multi-Purpose Cleaner, and Disinfecting Bathroom Cleaner. I was very excited when Seventh Generation allowed me to review this new line.



Since using these products, I have never forgot Seventh Generation's motto: "In our every deliberation, we must consider the impact of our decisions on the next seven generations."



Seventh Generation's Focus:


Restore the Environment
Restore is the next reduce, reuse, recycle. We are working to ensure that our products have a circular lifecycle, meaning natural resources are being used and renewed at a rate that is always below their rate of depletion.


Systems Thinking
As suggested by The Great Law of the Iroquois, we strive to act with the knowledge that our business belongs to a larger system in which everything is interconnected, and that everything we do affects everything else.

Radical Transparency
Our focus is to inspire thoughtful consideration of each purchase—from the immediate impact of the products you buy (Is it safe? Is it gentle on the earth? Does it work?), to the broader impact throughout their lifecycle.

Inspire Conscious Consumption


We believe that the best way to ensure that we live up to our aspirations is to be completely transparent about our business and product practices. You should expect to see all of our values and principles in everything we make, say, and do. It’s really that simple.

Influence Beyond Our Size
We’re committed to making sure that everyone our company interacts with—from the farmers who grow our lavender to the customers who use our products—are treated fairly and with respect.

Create a Just and Equitable World


We are determined to inspire others through innovation, education, and interaction. We proudly donate 10% of our profits to support organizations that work for positive change.




In addition to all this, you can also see all the ingredients in every product here. The ingredients in the Disinfectant line are too all natural. Using the disinfecting power found in thyme, Seventh Generation has produced a product that kills germs naturally and is safe for our families. As a matter of a fact, they kill over 99.99 percent of germs naturally and are effective against the Influenza A Virus, including H1N1, on all surfaces.





I have jumped right in on my Spring Cleaning using my Seventh Generation Disinfecting products. My favorite is the wipes. They are so convenient and easy to use. Best of all, there are no strong smells or any reside left behind.



Bet you want some, huh?


Head on over to Seventh Generation to find out where you can purchase all of the Seventh Generation line.


Bet you would rather win one, huh?
