PVC-free Dryer Balls

February 22nd, 2010

Back in 2008 at another blog, I wrote a post called Dryer Balls of PVC about how disappointed I was that so many of the so-called green dryer balls contained PVC (polyvinyl chloride) — an ingredient many companies are phasing out due to health and environmental concerns.

Later, someone left me a follow-up comment about how my concerns were heard and Nellie’s All-Natural currently offers a PVC-free dryer ball!

You can order online at nelliesallnatural.com or delight.com. PVC-free dryer balls from Nellie’s should also be available in stores that carry the Nellie’s All-Natural line of products.

Dryer balls are supposed to lift and separate fabrics, resulting in less lint and wrinkles and softer clothes. Drying time should be reduced as well. The new PVC-free version of Nellie’s dryer balls have an opening for lavender dryer sticks containing essential oil.

What is your opinion on dryer balls?
