Festival Season Survival: Clean Naturally with Bio-D

Dance, Camp, Clean, Repeat – Naturally

There’s nothing quite like festival season, music, mates, sunshine (hopefully), and that liberating feeling of dancing under the open sky. But with all the good vibes comes a lot of mess. From muddy boots and mystery food spills to sticky hands and reusable cup chaos, festivals can take a toll on your clothes, your skin, and the environment.

This year, ditch the harsh chemicals and single-use plastic. With Bio-D’s range of natural, eco-friendly cleaning products, you can stay fresh and green while you camp, dance, and unwind.

Here’s your guide to festival survival, with a little help from nature.

Why Clean Green at Festivals?

Festivals often leave behind a trail of plastic bottles, chemical-laden wipes, and disposable packaging. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Switching to plant-based, biodegradable cleaning solutions helps reduce waste and is far kinder to your skin, your gear, and the planet.

Bio-D’s travel-friendly heroes are:

• ✅ 100% vegan and cruelty-free
• ✅ Made from naturally derived, biodegradable ingredients
• ✅ Packaged in 100% recycled or plastic-free materials
• ✅ Refillable or available in solid bar format—perfect for travel

Whether you’re heading to Glastonbury, Green Man, or a local weekender, here’s how to stay fresh the Bio-D way.

1. Clean Clothes on the Go: Bio-D Laundry & Stain Remover Bar

Festivals are a mess, literally. Between grass stains, ketchup smears, and surprise showers, your festival wardrobe is bound to take a hit. Enter the Bio-D Laundry & Stain Remover Bar: compact, plastic-free, and powerful.

Ideal for:

• Spot-cleaning muddy jeans and raincoats
• Removing food and drink stains from festival gear
• Washing underwear, socks, or t-shirts by hand

How to use it:

1. Wet the stained fabric and rub the bar directly on the area.
2. Let it sit for a few minutes.
3. Rinse with water (from a bottle, basin, or tap).
4. Air-dry overnight at your tent.

It’s gentle on sensitive skin, long lasting, and takes up barely any room in your backpack. A festival must have.

2. Clean Dishes Sustainably: Bio-D Dishwash Bar

When the only kitchen you’ve got is a camp stove and a spork, you need smart cleaning solutions. The Bio-D Dishwash Bar is a plastic-free, solid alternative to traditional washing-up liquids, no leaks, no fuss.

Why it works:

• Cuts through grease with ease
• Safe for greywater systems (perfect for vanlifers and campers)
• Long-lasting and travel-friendly
• Pairs perfectly with compostable cloths or a reusable sponge

To use:

1. Wet your sponge or cloth and rub on the bar.
2. Scrub your dishes.
3. Rinse with water.

It’s compact, powerful, and totally zero-waste.

3. Stay Fresh: Bio-D Plastic-Free Soap Bars

Festival life means limited showers, questionable sinks, and a lot of sweating. Luckily, Bio-D’s Plastic Free Soap Bars are here to keep you clean, refreshed, and smelling great.

• Contains over 65% certified organic oils
  • 100% naturally derived
  • Contains Aloe Vera, a natural antiseptic that helps keep your skin clear of impurities
  • Aloe Vera also helps to keep the skin moisturised
  • Essential oil fragrances for a refreshing cleanse

These handmade soap bars are kind to your skin and the planet. Small enough to pop in your festival bag, they’re ideal for quick hand washes, morning face cleanses, or full body refreshes under a solar shower.

Available in three natural scents:

• Mandarin – Zesty and uplifting
•  Plum & Mulberry – Sweet and comforting
•  Lime & Aloe Vera – Fresh and soothing

Why festival-goers love them:

• Plastic-free and travel-sized
• Gentle on sensitive or sun-exposed skin
• Great for both hands and body
• Easy to store in a reusable soap tin

Say goodbye to sticky fingers and hello to clean, eco-conscious skin—even in a muddy field.

4. Prep and Refill Before You Go

Avoid single-use travel minis by refilling your Bio-D essentials before you head out. Many products come in bulk 5L or 20L refill sizes, so you can stock up and decant into smaller, reusable bottles.

Refill options to consider:

• Laundry Liquid (ideal for post-festival cleanups)
• Washing Up Liquid (for family-sized campsites)
• Hand Wash for your reusable travel bottles

Bio-D refill stations are available across the UK, helping you cut down on waste while keeping your conscience clear and your pack light.
