bide

Eco-friendly, zero-waste cleaning products that empower marginalised people.

Say so long to toxic cleaning products in favour of bide’s people and planet-friendly alternatives. 

The brand was set up to tackle two major challenges: growing unemployment, driven in part by the Covid pandemic, and the need for sustainable practices to overcome the climate crisis. 

So how does bide do its bit to make a positive impact on these issues? Firstly, by introducing “bide home manufacturing.” 

Through partnerships with charities who help unemployed and marginalised people, bide has created a network of staff who earn a flexible living making their products by hand at home. Right now bide home manufacturing is focused on areas hardest hit by the pandemic but there are plans to roll it out across the UK. 

True to their promise to be sustainable, this way of working – away from factories with a negative environmental impact – keeps things environmentally friendly. That goes for their ingredients list too: bide’s products are all made using natural, plant-derived ingredients that keep your home free from toxins and don’t release harmful materials into the water system.

Choose between individual products like dishwasher powder, toilet cleaning bombs and glass spray bottles, or order a bide box for the ideal eco cleaning starter pack. 

All bide items are packaged in 100% recycled and compostable or biodegradable materials. You won’t find any sneaky hidden plastic here. 

Meet The Founder

Amelia Gammon had already been on a personal mission to adopt a greener lifestyle for more than a decade before launching bide in March 2020. 

Having made the switch to using many eco alternatives to household essentials herself, she knew that these types of products needed to become more accessible and affordable before they could become mainstream. 

Amelia originally began curating boxes of existing green cleaning products. But a little research showed many of the brands behind them were not as ethical as they might appear from the labels. 

So, bide began producing their own products, which Amelia saw as an opportunity to help empower people who often face barriers to work.
