Summary

We all know that to keep our windows and glass tables shiny and streak-free, we cannot settle with just water and regular soap for cleaning.
In effect, window cleaners are common in households not only across the United States but across the whole world. The overall market of glass cleaners has a moderate CAGR of around 6.3% (Future Market Insights , 2023). It was valued at US $3.31 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach US $6.1 billion by the end of 2032 (Future Market Insights , 2023). Meaning that the number of users will increase in the following years.
However, the popularity of these products doesn’t mean that they are all good for health. While it may seem convenient to grab some bathroom and window cleaner off the shelves at the grocery store, I want you to become aware of other convenient options you have readily available to you that are a cleaner solution for your everyday cleaning products.
That’s what we are going to dive into today in this episode of Fatal Conveniences: Solutions Edition.

figured that out, you now know that most cleaning products and certainly window cleaners

0:27.2

are dirty. They're dirty to use because of these blue-like chemical concoctions, and

0:35.6

I think you know the brand I'm talking about. These are unnecessary and dangerous, so we

0:43.1

don't need to use these. These are simple solutions, and I'm going to get into those, because

0:47.8

most glass cleaners contain fragrances, which you now know are endocrine disrupting,

0:54.6

eyes, which can seep into from the air possible carcinogens, solvents, surfactants, flow

agents, ammonia. This is bottom of the barrel throwing stuff together, adding blue dyes and

selling it to you a chemical cocktail, just to make sure your windows and mirrors are clean.

1:18.4

It's kind of insane that they have got us to buy these things, right? So we're going

to change all that by having these conversations so you and I can wake up, have easy solutions

in using window cleaners like this. Moreover, prolonged exposure of ammonium can cause

1:53.7

extremely painful irritations of the precious mucosal membranes of your nose and mouth.
