Greener Alternatives To The Plastic Shower Curtain

In recent years people have started realising the importance of saving the environment any way they can. With that in mind, many house owners have started incorporating the “green” movement in their homes. It is therefore a no brainer to comprehend the fact that shower curtains even your awesome mickey mouse shower curtian, especially those made from plastic, also can be changed. This article will provide a quick but useful insight into some alternatives you can choose from.

The terrible thing about plastic shower curtains is that they tend to emit some not so ozone friendly gassing. They are particularly at their worst when they are fresh from the store. Here are some few thought to help deal with this.

If you live in a dry climatic area then consider buying Hemp shower curtains. The reason why I favour it in drier areas is that it takes quite sometime to dry.

Due to the amount of time it takes for it to dry up, it is possible for it to start developing some mold and may require regular washing. As you probably know continuous washing is not good for the fabric. You nearest retailer probably sells this one for about $90.

Another alternative is to find those made from cloth. Make sure the one you buy dries up quickly and can be washed using a washing machine. My best pick is nylon but you can try out other options. You can buy yourself a nice fabric at $20, which comes with a very tight weave and repels water perfectly fine. I prefer this one from Hemp because it is capable of drying faster and repels mold growth better. There are several options to choose from in terms of color and more like a croscill royal paisley shower curtain  or simply find discount shower curtain of your choice. Just make sure it fits well with your bathroom deco.

I said I hate plastic, yes, but I will not withhold the truth and not tell you that there are a few green curtains that you can buy – if you must stick with plastic.
