The charter company's source of revenue, to be honest. Join NatureSafe Marine in their mission to make a difference.

Rumi has said: "There is a voice that doesn't use words. Listen." But the voice we are writing about right now is getting louder and louder every day, and it should be listened to. Taken to heart. And implemented also.  
  
The hot topic of the day is cleaning products used for cleaning yachts, in yacht charters and such.  
  
Yes, we know that this topic is not as romantic as Rumi is, but this is one thing that should be on the table right now. Everyone should use natural, unharmful cleaning products.  
And by everyone – we do really mean all of us.   
  
Well, not to beat around the bush, proverbial or another – we will put it plainly. This planet is the only one we have. And the sea is not only a source of adventure and beauty for sailors and a source of income for charter companies - but it also gives life. It creates. It sustains.   
  
Now, if you are not using 100% biodegradable cleaning formulas in your charter that are both safe and effective, read on. If you use them in your cleaning procedures, read on as well. Finding out what is new in the sustainable product market is always good.   
  

How can one make a difference in biodiversity?  

To answer such a question, we might turn to a company committed to making a difference by offering sustainable solutions for yacht cleaning. You know, those that don't harm the environment or marine life.  
  
We want to take a closer look at a company that understands the impact of severely toxic cleaning products on the sea and sea life. The one that believes they can make a positive impact by offering eco-friendly and safe alternatives.   
  
So, we are looking at NatureSafe Marine, a company committed to raising awareness about the importance of sustainability and the impact of toxic cleaning products on the environment.   
  
They also believe that education is a key component in building a more sustainable future, and they are ready to share their knowledge and expertise to inspire others to make a positive impact.  
  
At NatureSafe Marine, they say they're proud to be on a mission to make a positive impact, and they invite you to join them on this journey.   
  
Yes - you, because by choosing their eco-friendly products, you're making a conscious decision to protect the seas we so much love. And shouldn't our common goal be to build a more sustainable future for the generations that come?  
   

Definition of an eco-friendly cleaning product  

We were talking about bushes earlier. Well, eco-friendly cleaning products are – what else, but plant-based. So, what else a good cleaning product must have to be defined as eco-friendly and sustainable? It's usually a combination of several things, such as:   

• Reusable or recycled packaging  
• Easily biodegradable ingredients  
• Documented effectiveness  
• Certified and tested ingredients

Now, about certified ingredients. We can only say that it is a significant achievement for any product to have one of the most coveted certificates for environmentally friendly products.   
  
Ecocert, of the largest organic certification organizations in the world, has strict standards for the ingredients used in certified products. For a product to be certified, it must have a minimum percentage of organic ingredients, be at least 95% natural, and not contain any harsh chemicals.   
  
NatureSafe Marine products have undergone testing and evaluation to ensure they meet these strict standards. To be certified, their products had to undergo rigorous testing and meet strict environmental criteria, including being completely biodegradable (OECD 301B) in 28 days.  
  
We know that if we say someone uses OECD 301B Formula, this won't mean much to you. But let's say that this is a non-toxic, 100% biodegradable formula that doesn't harm the marine ecosystem... We think that we may have your attention.  
  
One of the certifications NatureSafe Marine products have also received is the EU Ecolabel, a voluntary label awarded to products and services that meet high environmental standards throughout their life cycle. The EU Ecolabel considers factors such as energy and water efficiency, environmental impact, and the use of hazardous substances.   
  
NatureSafe Marine products have also received the Vegan certification. This certification ensures that their products don't contain any animal-derived ingredients or by-products and that no animals were harmed in the manufacturing process. You can be sure you are not contributing to animal exploitation and making an ethical and sustainable choice.  
   
NatureSafe Marine cleaning products are not only biodegradable, but their properties mean that they are also gentle on the yacht's surfaces, unharmful to people that use them, as well as marine life and the ecosystem. They have been adequately tested, and they efficiently remove dirt, grime, and stains from surfaces on yachts.  
  
So, no harm, no irritations, harsh chemicals, proven effectiveness, and vegan-certified cleaning products. What else could you wish for?  
  

Environmentally friendly plant-based ingredients   

At NatureSafe Marine, they understand that reading through complicated ingredient names can be confusing and overwhelming. That's why they believe in keeping things transparent and straightforward regarding the ingredients they use in their products. They want everyone to know precisely what they use on their yachts and in the water.   
  
So, let's return to the abovementioned plants and plant-based products. NatureSafe Marine, quite transparently, provided the list of ingredients for their high-quality cleaning eco-friendly products:  

Sodium Laureth Sulfate - commonly found in cleaning detergents such as dishwashing liquid, acts as a surfactant to help remove dirt and stains, and it's derived from coconut oil.  

Cocamidopropyl Betaine - used in cleaning products to create a thick lather and break down dirt and stains as a surfactant, is also derived from coconut oil.  

Capryl Glucoside - a replacement for harsher chemicals and is derived from a reaction between Caprylic Acid, found in coconut oil, glucose and in corn.  

Potassium Sorbate - mild preservative with the purpose of preventing the growth of bacteria and mould, and it's derived from Sorbic Acid found in berries.   

Xantham Gum - a thickener used to create a smooth and even consistency and is produced by fermenting corn sugar with a bacteria called Xanthomonas campestris.  
  
So NatureSafe Marine products are not only effective and plant-based, but in short, they are free from:  

• Unnecessary and toxic chemicals  
• Silicones and acrylates  
• Phosphates and phosphonates  
• Chlorine bleach  
• Fragrance, colourants or harmful preservatives  
    

Perfect way to clean your yacht without compromising marine life  

Traditional cleaning products used in yacht charter, as well as those specifically designed for boats and yachts, often contain ingredients that can be harmful to both human health and the marine environment.  
 
Chemicals used in cleaning products for boats and yachts can cause irritations and pose a risk to those who handle them. Furthermore, non-biodegradable cleaning products can negatively impact water quality and contribute to water pollution, posing a severe threat to marine life.  
 
Want to know how to clean your yacht in an eco-friendly way? You know - the essential way in which you can protect the environment.   
  
Here are some tips to keep in mind:  

1. Choose eco-friendly cleaning products such as NatureSafe Marine, certified by reputable organizations and that have Vegan certifications.  
2. Avoid using chemicals that can harm the environment and marine life. Instead, opt for natural products or cleaning solutions such as vinegar and baking soda.  
3. Exclude using any possible tools or cleaning devices that could affect water quality and harm marine life that depends on a clean and healthy environment or the ones that introduce pollutants and chemicals into the water.  
4. Be mindful of the amount of water you're using when cleaning your yacht, avoid wasting water and try to conserve water as much as possible.  
5. Dispose of cleaning materials and waste responsibly. Don't throw them overboard or into the water; instead, dispose of them properly on land.
