Ingredients

Kinfill uses only the finest raw ingredients at the highest degree of quality. The cleaning industry is in fact a dirty business: Most ingredients used in cleaning products are harmful to the planet and ourselves. Kinfill designed a collection of refillable cleaning products, that contain powerful, nature-respecting cleaning concentrates in their purest form. Easy to use at home, where you can dilute the cleaning concentrate into a Forever glass bottle and fill the bottle with tap water.

To create the 100% biodegradable, vegan and cruelty-free cleaning concentrates, Kinfill teamed up with experts in the business, as well as master perfumers, to elevate together to the stricter standards or organic skincare brands.

Alkyl glucoside : Alkyl glucosides are found in both rinse-off products (shower gels, shampoos, and hair dyes) and leave on cosmetics (sunscreens and facial moisturizers, and deodorants.

Benzalkonium chloride : Benzalkonium chloride is used to prevent or inhibit the growth and reproduction of micro-organisms in finished products. It also functions as a foam boother and as a detergent, helping water to mix with oil and dirt so that they can be rinsed away.

Bronopol Bronopol : Bronopol Bronopol (formulation 2-bromo-nitropropane-1,3-diol) is used as an effective formulation of a wide variety of cosmetic and personal care products, especially shampoos, lotion, rinses, and eye makeup.

Citric acid : Citric acid is used in all sorts of cosmetic products including baby products, make-up, hair- and skin care, lipstick, bath products, soaps, detergents, and hair dyes. It mostly functions as a lime remover or plasticizer.

Ethanol : Ethanol acts as an astringent to help clean surfaces. In lotions, it acts as a preservative and helps ensure that mixed ingredients do not separate. Ethoxylated alcohol Ethoxylated alcohol is used as a solvent in the production of detergents and surfactants, and as an emulsifier, emollient, and thickener in the cosmetic and food industries.

Ethoxylated alkyl amides : Ethoxylated alkyl amides are organic chemicals used as low-foaming surfactants in the manufacture of lubricating oil additives, detergents, and hair products.

Isopropyl alcohol : Isopropyl alcohol functions as an antifoaming agent, cosmetic astringent, solvent, and viscosity reducing agent.

Methylglycinediacetic acid or trisodium salt : These ingredients bind to metal ions to inactivate them. In so doing they help to maintain clarity, protect fragrance compounds and prevent rancidity.

Monopropylene glycol : Monopropylene glycol is a synthetic slip agent and texture enhancer widely used in food, beverage, animal feeds, and pharmaceuticals. In cosmetics and personal care products it is used as an inactive ingredient or carrier.

Octyl glucoside : Octyl glucoside is a natural non-ionic surfactant, ideal for all foaming and cleansing products. Like Coco-Glucoside, Octyl glucoside is obtained from renewable raw materials through a combination of plant-based fatty alcohols (coconut c8-c16).

Water

Did you know that water comprises more than 90 percent by volume of what’s inside every bottle of a standard household cleaning agent. It’s put there to create the illusion of value, but it functions to create waste. Why? Because every drop of that water has to be packaged, distributed, merchandised, and transported.

Kinfill’s bottles are shipped empty, because they don’t want you to pay to ship water around the world. A Starter Kit box contains a Forever bottle, made of Italian glass, and a glass vial with 100% biodegradable cleaning concentrate. Easy to dilute at home with tap water.

Step 1: Fill the bottle with tap water

Step 2: Pour the vial with cleaning concentrate into the bottle

Step 3: Shake gently and you’re good to go!

Cardboard

Each custom Kinfill box is made and folded from one single sheet of FSC certified recycled cardboard, and completely free of toxic adhesives.

These customized boxes will ensure a safe and carbon-neutral journey for your Kinfill products. From our warehouse in Rotterdam to the doorstep of your home.

Glass & Aluminium

The name speaks for itself: the Kinfill Forever bottles, made from Italian glass, are meant to last a lifetime. The refill vials are also made of glass and have been developed to be fully and easily recycled. The vials are closed with an aluminum cap. Separate the aluminum lids from the glass vials and put them into municipal recycling bins.
