Handy Mist Was Developed In 2019 And Is A Proven, Low Cost Alternative To Wet Wipes
Wet wipes have become a regular part of many people’s daily routines. In recent years, people have started using wet wipes instead of toilet paper. Why? Well to be honest we all know that wet wipes are often more soothing and comfortable compared to dry toilet paper and everyone would agree that they tend to clean more thoroughly.
THE PROBLEM
However, there are problems with wet wipes. They are expensive, bulky to carry around and can be bad for the environment.
Then of course there is the issue of blocked sewerage systems. Over the years, a lot of time and money has been spent dealing with sewerage pipes which have become blocked because of people flushing wet wipes down the toilet. Although the technology is improving, this continues to be a problem.
Many wet wipes contain plastic and add to the problem of microplastics in the environment. In the UK, the government has introduced legislation to completely ban all wet wipes that contain plastic.

THE SOLUTION
Handy Mist was introduced in 2019 as a solution to the problems posed by wet wipes. It is designed to offer the benefits of wet wipes without their downsides.
Handy Mist lightly moistens toilet paper, enhancing its cleaning ability without making it too wet. This allows for a similar soothing and efficient clean as wet wipes, but with standard toilet paper that breaks down easily in water.
Our products offer a comfortable and efficient cleaning experience without contributing to environmental issues or sewer blockages, making them a sustainable choice for personal hygiene.
Using a tissue moistener as an eco-friendly substitute for wet wipes is not a new idea, but Handy Mist offers a proven, low cost alternative to other similar products.
We avoid using expensive packaging which significantly adds to the cost and environmental impact of the product. Our aim is to provide and effective, low cost product that has minimal impact on the environment. Our spray bottles can be re-used many times and are made of clear #1 PET recyclable plastic. We are constantly looking for better options for all of our products.
