Rio Bum Bum Floors Domestic Friends, the floor cleaning detergent recommended for pet owners it is neither ecological nor organic as it promises. Do we really need a specific product for floors when our four-legged friends live with us?
Some time ago one of our readers wrote to us to ask what we thought of them Rio Bum Bum detergents. We only use truly ecological and self-produced detergents. We got curious and went to check out the company's website.
Although we did not know the product, we quickly realized from the information present online that it was the usual marketing operation to make cleaning products green that in reality are not and that reflect the same characteristics of any not particularly green supermarket detergent.
Our intuition was correct. Today from Altroconsumo arrive criticisms of one of the products of the Rio Bum Bum line. Criticisms that dismantle the communication and advertising messages of the company piece by piece, given that we are faced with a detergent for floors that has very little ecological in practice, but which is sold well in words.
It's easy mislead consumers who would like to move towards more environmentally friendly products through targeted advertising campaigns. We had suspected it and now Altroconsumo has taken action.
In fact, he reported the detergent Rio Bum Bum Pavimenti Amici Domestici toInstitute of Advertising Self-discipline per misleading commercial communication. Altroconsumo points out that those who have dogs and cats at home do not need to buy a specific detergent like this.
There are too many doubts about the veracity of what is written on the product packaging. For example we talk about "Biological detergent" and "100% active biological natural agents". The manufacturer declares itself "organic" without having received the certification by an authorized body. So there would be nothing in the product bio.
Also suspicious regarding the wording "Hypoallergenic" e "Non-toxic". According to Altroconsumo, it is not specified for whom the product could be toxic or safe. The wording "hypoallergenic" does not make sense, since any substance could trigger allergies, depending on the sensitivity of those who will use the product.
A floor detergent that would be neither environmentally friendly nor animal friendly, nor indispensable nor economical, given that the cost is € 2,69 for 750 ml. We can really do without it and avoid falling into the traps of false advertising. To clean floors a sturdy cloth dipped in hot water and well wrung out is enough with a few drops of really ecological soap if you need to remove some stains. In this way you will truly respect the environment, the animals, your health and save money.
