Adios Plastic unveils compostable wipes for dogs

Adios Plastic, the eco-friendly pet brand, has launched a range of compostable wipes for dogs.

The wipes can be put into home composters, where they break down in between 30 to 60 days, and the packaging is also recyclable.

Each pack has 25 wipes and the packaging, including the peel-back opening, is 100% recyclable.

Each wipe contains aloe vera and camomile and can be used for cleaning paws and human hands, as well as more sensitive areas, and can be used alongside the company’s environmentally friendly poo bags.

Founder Ben Dodd said: “We set out to create an affordable and eco-friendly wipe that pet parents can take on walks along with their poo bags.

“The wipes are chemical-free and safe for pets, so if they lick themselves where the wipe has been used, they’re not ingesting any nasties. They’re made of viscose and are fully compostable, so can go inside a poo bag and will break down naturally at the same time.”

The company is aiming to take 10 tonnes of plastic out of landfill this year.
