The Utility Room

Cleaning Things That Do Not Look Like Cleaning Things.

The average British under-sink cupboard is a small municipal landfill. Six half-empty trigger sprays in aggressive primary colours, a bottle of something from 2019 that nobody can identify, and a cloth that has gone a colour cloths should not go.

This is the alternative, and the argument for it is not really environmental, though it is that too. It is that these things get used every single day, and there is no good reason for the objects you handle most often to be the ugliest objects you own.

Refillable amber glass instead of plastic that gets thrown away and replaced monthly. Brushes made of wood and bristle. Soap dispensers you would actually leave out on the side, which is rather the test. We have a toilet brush in here that a customer felt moved to write a review about, which tells you something about the standard.

Kuishi is the anchor: refillable amber glass, B Corp certified, and a Cornish answer to the unsightly plastic soap bottle. Around it sits everything else the room needs, from makers chosen on the same terms as the rest of the marketplace.
