The next heave of “local” has arrived at the Mar Vista Farmers’ Exchange in the form of Refyll , a new company that sells biodegradable household cleaners and trunk care products. Whether you need shampoo, lotion, dishwashing fluid, or laundry soap, Refyll has can save you that trip to the grocery retailer, and help you reduce your impact on the planet at the same time.
It’s pretty equitable forward: bring your own container, tell the helpful gals behind the marker how much you need, and walk away knowing that you’ve kept one more container out of the landfill. It’s not a moment ago about the container though. Refyll’s founders spent a year researching and testing their products to designate sure that they were as close as you could get to what nature intended.
Jen Wedlake, co-founder of Refyll, told me about this new endeavor that began in December of 2011. “We wanted to be adept to refill our home and body products just like we refill our fruits and vegetables at the Stock Exchange. Nobody does that.” Indeed, there was a need, and they found a way to (re)fill it.
