1. You need bleach to properly clean your toilet.
False
It may be hard to believe, but there is no need to reach for the bleach to effectively clean your toilet. Cleaning toilets on a regular basis (inside and out) can be achieved without the use of bleach or other harsh chemicals.
Bleach isn’t great for our health (especially when used in a small, confined areas such as the toilet) which is why we offer an alternative.
Both our Toilet Duo (used to clean the outside of your toilet system) and the Bathroom Handy Set (used to clean the inside of your toilet bowl) along with just water can lift and trap dirt and bacteria using our patented fibre technology. It doesn’t have to be complicated; it just needs to work.
Unlike chemical cleaning products, ENJO Fibres don’t kill bacteria, but they do physically remove bacteria to safe levels effectively.

Now, let’s get one thing straight, cleaning is a different process to disinfecting – FACT!
Many people believe that “bleach will get rid of anything” but the reality is that bleach is not effective on organic material aka dirt and grime.
That’s why the cleaning process (using your ENJO products of course!) needs to happen BEFORE disinfecting – this is step 1.
After this, if you would like to safely disinfect your toilet (by using bleach) which is a reality for many with COVID still lurking about, we recommend you do so in the safest way possible.
2. A good quality toilet brush is more effective at cleaning the inside of your toilet bowl than conventional toilet cleaner liquid.
True
No one flushes with excitement when it’s time to clean the toilet bowl. We may be in the 21st century but a toilet brush isn’t an ancient artefact, in fact they are highly underrated!
Reduce the ick factor with our Bathroom Handy Set which makes cleaning hard to reach areas in the toilet bowl a breeze. With a long handle and double-sided scrubbing fibre, the Bathroom Handy ensures that grime from under the toilet bow rim is properly cleaned and bacteria isn’t building up in the bowl and spraying out to the rest of the room with every flush.
Rather than dumping a colourful cocktail of chemical concoctions (phew what a mouthful!) down the toilet bowl, remember that cleaning with chemicals does more harm to our health and the health of the environment… is it worth it when there is a better alternative? Not to mention that chemical residue can stick to the bowl meaning that bacteria might be lingering and is not as clean as you thought!
3. Toilet Flush buttons contain more germs and bacteria than inside the toilet bowl.
True!
We know, this one is hard to believe but toilet flush buttons, door handles, tapware and light switches are all areas that are frequently in content with hands which makes them the perfect breeding ground for germs – makes sense! On the other hand, toilet bowls are constantly being flushed with the same water that comes out of our taps so technically… cleaner.
The importance of keeping high touch points clean is paramount to the overall health and wellbeing to you and your bathroom! With flu season fast approaching, the Toilet Duo is the only sustainably clean tool for the job.
We recommend daily maintenance cleaning of the ‘powder room’ especially during cold and flu season on all high touch points not to mention the toilet itself! This is where the Toilet Duo comes in. It is as easy as clean, wash, repeat with this dedicated product (the red label helps to differentiate) and just add water. Start with the light switches and move through each touch points cleaning with the fibre and wiping with the Miracle cloth leaving the most-used seat in the home till last.
TIP: The right way to flush.
The next time you flush the toilet, close the lid! This helps to reduce the spread of bacterial and viral transmission.

4. Cleaning without chemicals kills bacteria.
False
Unlike chemical cleaning products, ENJO Fibres don’t kill bacteria. They do however physically remove bacteria to safe levels effectively. ENJO works by lifting and trapping bacteria using our specialised patented fibre technology and water.
Our studies have shown that cleaning without chemicals is healthier (to you and the planet), is safer and faster too. Cleaning with ENJO can achieve a 6x cleaner clean which is just the peace of mind you need in an area such as the loo. Check out the verdict from studies carried out comparing ENJO products to conventional ones and see the results for yourself!
5. If a toilet smells fresh, it must be clean.
False
Let's set the scene: the toilet has just been freshly cleaned from top to bottom, inside and out with toilet cleaning liquids or disposable wipes. Smells sparkly clean right? But how do we know for sure? We put the Toilet Duo head to head with conventional cleaning wipes to test their efficacy under Glo Germ™ testing conditions. Glo Germ is an effective tool that demonstrates surface cleaning and hygiene. The results speak for themselves!
For those who haven’t used ENJO, cleaning without chemicals is a concept that you need to wrap your head around. For starters, there is no scent! No nasty strong-smelling chemicals to inhale in such a small sized area – which is a good thing! It is about flipping the mindset of smelling clean not actually equalling clean. As we know, using chemicals can just mask bacteria and lead us into a false sense of thinking something is clean when in fact, it isn’t!
Wet. Wipe. Dry
The Bottom Line
As much as we love to hate it, the little room no one likes to talk about needs to be cleaned regularly and effectively. Arming ourselves with the most sustainably clean tools in our tool kits sets us up for success. Now that we have all that behind us, let's get cleaning.. the right way!
