Get Your Five a Day – The Bio-D Way!
We’ve all heard it before: “Get your five a day!” But while the classic phrase encourages us to eat five portions of fruit and veg daily, here at Bio-D, we like to think a little outside the fruit bowl. What if you could clean your home, care for your skin, and do your bit for the planet, all while still enjoying your fruity favourites?
We’ve packed nature’s best into our everyday cleaning and body care range, so you can soak up the juicy scents and cleaning power of fruit and botanical extracts from morning to night. Think zesty citrus, tangy rhubarb and sweet spiced apple—all lovingly made in the UK and kind to your skin, home, and the planet.
So, how can you enjoy your fruity five a day with Bio-D? Let us take you through a typical (eco-friendly) day in the life.
The best mornings start with a refreshing shower, and our Plastic Free Mandarin Soap Bar is here to kick off your day the citrusy way! Bursting with the uplifting scent of mandarin essential oil, this soap bar gently cleanses your skin without drying it out.
Crafted with natural ingredients and no plastic packaging in sight, it’s perfect for eco-conscious households looking to reduce waste in the bathroom. It’s also suitable for all skin types,including sensitive skin, so the whole family can get involved in the fruit-inspired freshness!

Whether you’re team smoothie or team toast, there’s one thing we all face post-breakfast, washing up! Enter: Bio-D’s Yorkshire Rhubarb Washing Up Liquid.
Infused with the crisp, tart scent of rhubarb grown right here in Yorkshire, this plant-based washing up liquid makes light work of dishes while being gentle on your hands. It’s also 100% biodegradable and cruelty-free, so it’s as kind to the planet as it is tough on grease.
The best part? That subtly sweet rhubarb scent lingers just enough to make washing up a bit less of a chore.

With all the hustle and bustle of the day, keeping your hands clean has never been more important. Our Spiced Apple Hand Wash brings a comforting blend of warm spices and fresh apple to your sink side, turning every handwash into a little moment of indulgence.
Whether you’re in the kitchen, bathroom or office, this rich, skin-friendly formula is perfect for frequent washing and the deliciously festive scent is welcome all year round.
Like all Bio-D products, our Hand Wash is vegan, made in the UK, and comes in bottles made from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic.

Lunch break done? Time for round two of the dishes! While our rhubarb variant handles breakfast, the Mandarin Washing Up Liquid brings back the zing for your midday clean.
This cheerful citrus blend cuts through oil and grime with ease, and its zesty scent makes even the most stubborn lunchtime leftovers a little more bearable to clean up. It’s gentle on hands and ultra-concentrated, meaning a little goes a long way.
Plus, we love a matchy-matchy moment with our Mandarin Soap Bar. Fruit-fresh coordination? Don’t mind if we do.

Round off your day with the final fruity flourish: Bio-D’s Pink Grapefruit Washing Up Liquid. Bright, tangy, and gorgeously fresh, this is the ultimate clean-up companion after your evening meal.
The scent of pink grapefruit has been shown to energise and uplift, perfect for that post-dinner slump when all you really want is the sofa. Its powerful, plant-based formula ensures dishes are sparkling and sinks smell sensational.
Plus, like all our Washing Up Liquids, it’s certified cruelty-free and safe for septic tanks, so you can scrub up guilt-free.
