Change your habits with washable and reusable tissues
Ingenious case with separator for clean and dirty tissues
Machine washable, ultra-soft and 100% organic cotton
Lasts up to 5 years

Did you know that the French Ministry of Health estimates that 32 billion tissues are sold in France every year ? That's almost 500 tissues per person per year ? That's an impressive figure !

To tackle this disproportionate consumption of disposable paper, change your habits and discover Inga's washable and reusable tissues.

Imagine 6 100% organic cotton tissues always to hand, grouped together in an ingenious soft case. After folding the tissues as shown in the tutorial, place the tissue divider on top. Now all you have to do is :

1 - Take a clean tissue from the underside of the case through the slot
2 - Place your dirty tissues on top
3 - When all 6 tissues are dirty, put them through the machine and refill the case.

You'll be able to repeat this operation for 5 years (the lifespan given to washable tissues). Imagine how good it is for your wallet and for the planet.

Paper tissues hurt...

Nose : We've all noticed that after a cold or an allergy, when we blow our nose it's red and peeling. There's nothing elegant about that, so who's at fault ? The paper handkerchief! Clearly, tissues initially irritate the skin and cause discomfort. Nobody wants that feeling when they've got a cold. A paper handkerchief is made from cellulose (paper material) & chemical components that are harmful to the skin... What about the skin ? It needs softness.

To the planet : The countless handkerchiefs thrown on the ground in nature... A handkerchief takes 3 months to degrade, made with chemical components it will leave a harmful trace on the planet. And remember, paper tissues are not recyclable. Then there's plastic wrapping paper... But that's not the only impact on our planet. The manufacture of paper handkerchiefs kills trees, far too many trees (2,000 a day). The ecological impact is also considerable, as the manufacture of paper tissues requires an enormous amount of water (18,000 tonnes of water per day).

Just like a normal handkerchief : for blowing your nose, mopping your forehead, drying crocodile tears, making origami ... Their clever case means you can keep 6 tissues in your pocket at all times, separating the clean ones from the dirty ones.

To wash your tissues and keep them hygienic, simply put them in the washing machine (in the washing net if you don't want to scatter them in the drum). They should be washed at between 40°C and 60°C maximum, with no preference for the spin cycle !

You can clean your smart case by hand, but it can also be put in the washing machine (yes, yes) or the dishwasher ! Thanks to the temperature and the cleaning products, microbes will be eliminated.

100% ORGANIC cotton handkerchiefs. Made in Portugal (Bom dia). 100% recyclable TPE case. Made in France (cocorico).

Handkerchiefs : 21 cm x 21 cm (just like disposable tissues !).

6 tissues + a smart yellow case.

INGA is the story of the maniac, the skinflint and the slacker (no, it's not the title of a new Sergio Léone film) who all wanted to consume better and throw away less, but not at any price !

Realising the disasters caused by the manufacture and consumption of household paper (billions of litres of waste, litres of water consumed, CO2 emitted, trees cut down...), the three founders of INGA wanted to offer a sustainable solution.

Sustainable, yes, but not at any price. The maniac wanted it to be as efficient as disposables, the skinflint wanted it to cost less and the lazy person wanted it to be... That it be easy to use.

And so, with INGA, they embarked on a mission to encourage people to switch from disposable to sustainable products that are effective, long-lasting, practical and economical..." .
