Koala Eco
Safe, powerful, plant-based products for a clean home, body and mind. Made with Australian essential oils. No new plastic.
Our commitment
Brought together by a love of nature and a shared passion for the environment, co-founders Jessica and Paul launched Koala Eco in 2017. A health scare during their younger son’s infancy spurred the couple to reassess the products they were using at home. Unable to find brands that were truly natural and safe, yet powerful, and convinced there were many people like them looking to make more natural product choices, Paul and Jessica decided to create their own. They designed a range of cleaning and care products to deliver the performance of conventional brands using plant-based ingredients, while offering an unmatched sensorial experience, thanks to the high concentrations of Australian essential oils, and no synthetic fragrances. We are proud to have removed more than 1.5 million plastic bottles from circulation as a result of only using recycled plastic, and we have prevented over 1 million litres of toxic liquid from entering Australian homes and waterways.

Made with sustainably sourced plant-based ingredients and Australian essential oils, Koala Eco formulas work without harming the environment, are biodegradable and grey-water safe.
