Plastic wrap: ingredients to look for, and what to swap to
Plastic wrap is one of the 43 product kinds in Detox My Life's swap catalog: the things people most often replace when they start reading labels. Below is what the app's engine has researched in this kind of product, with the level each ingredient gets for the way it reaches you, and the alternative types the catalog suggests.
Researched ingredients in plastic wrap
The engine's substance list does not yet tie a researched ingredient to plastic wrap. Scanning one in the app researches its ingredients for the use the app infers; the result is cached and shows up here on the next build.
What the catalog suggests instead
Alternatives are types, never brands, and there are no affiliate links anywhere in the app or on this site.
- Beeswax
- Silicone Lid
In the app's swap catalog, replacing plastic wrap counts as a small step for a home. That weighting is the catalog's own first-pass judgement used to rank your plan, not a sourced claim; the evidence lives on the ingredient pages.
How a swap is credited
When you scan the product that replaced your plastic wrap and tap This replaces…, the app logs the swap, counts the old product as a clean slot in its room and moves your Detox Score by exactly the promised impact. Fifty is a typical home in your region, so the number is yours to beat, not an absolute nobody reaches.
Scan your own. The app reads any product label with your camera, works out how you are about to use it, and researches every ingredient for that use with live sources. Every scan adds to a Detox Score for your home, where 50 is a typical home in your region, and a plan of next swaps.
