Eco-Strips Floor CleanerNettoyant à plancher Eco-Strips
Zero-waste floor cleaning in dissolvable strip format. Drop one strip into a bucket of warm water, mop, walk away. No plastic bottle, no measuring cup, no rinse.Nettoyage de planchers zéro déchet en format bandelette soluble. Déposez une bandelette dans un seau d'eau tiède, vadrouillez, partez. Sans bouteille plastique, sans tasse à mesurer, sans rinçage.
Eco-Strips Floor Cleaner is the same plant-derived chemistry as Sampson's liquid Eco Floor Cleaner, rethought into a dry-strip format. Each strip is a concentrated, dissolvable dose designed to be dropped into a standard mop bucket.Eco-Strips Floor Cleaner reprend la même chimie végétale que notre Eco Floor Cleaner liquide, repensée en format bandelette sèche. Chaque bandelette est une dose concentrée et soluble conçue pour être déposée dans un seau à vadrouille standard.
One strip per ~5 L bucket for deep cleaning. Half a strip for routine mopping. The format removes the shipping weight, the plastic bottle, and the dilution guesswork that come with liquid floor cleaners. Sixty strips per pack — about a year of mopping for most households.Une bandelette par seau de ~5 L pour le nettoyage en profondeur. La moitié d'une bandelette pour l'entretien régulier. Le format retire le poids de transport, la bouteille plastique et l'équation de dilution propres aux nettoyants liquides. Soixante bandelettes par paquet — environ un an de vadrouillage pour la plupart des foyers.
Formulated by environmental engineers with M.Eng. credentials and 30+ years of contamination-remediation experience. Safe on ceramic, sealed natural stone, and sealed wood. Biodegradable per OECD 301D; septic-safe in standard household use.Formulé par des ingénieurs en environnement (M.Ing.) avec plus de 30 ans d'expérience en décontamination. Sécuritaire sur céramique, pierre naturelle scellée et bois scellé. Biodégradable selon OECD 301D ; compatible fosse septique en usage standard.
The Sampson PromiseLa promesse Sampson
"Every cleaner we make starts with the same question we'd ask on a contamination site: what's actually in here, and what happens when it goes down the drain?"« Chaque nettoyant qu'on fabrique commence par la même question qu'on poserait sur un site contaminé : qu'est-ce qu'il y a vraiment dedans, et qu'est-ce qui se passe quand ça va dans le drain ? »

02 Ingredients
Plant-Derived · PVA Carrier · OECD 301DÀ base de plantes · Support PVA · OECD 301D
- Plant-derived surfactant blend. Coco-glucoside and decyl glucoside — sugar-derived surfactants that lift soil and grease without petroleum chemistry. Biodegradable per OECD 301D.Mélange de tensioactifs végétaux. Coco-glucoside et décyl glucoside — tensioactifs dérivés du sucre qui décollent sols et graisses sans chimie pétrolière. Biodégradable selon OECD 301D.
- Water-soluble carrier film (PVA — not plastic). The strip itself is a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film that dissolves into solution and breaks down in standard waste-water conditions. There is no microplastic component.Film support hydrosoluble (PVA — pas du plastique). La bandelette elle-même est un film d'alcool polyvinylique (PVA) qui se dissout dans la solution et se décompose dans les conditions standards d'eaux usées. Aucun composant microplastique.
- Plant-based conditioning agent. Glycerin (vegetable-derived) acts as a humectant and structural binder for the dry strip. Standard ingredient in plant-based cleaning chemistry.Agent conditionnant végétal. La glycérine (d'origine végétale) agit comme humectant et liant structurel pour la bandelette sèche. Ingrédient standard en chimie de nettoyage végétale.
- What's not in here. No phosphates, no parabens, no petroleum solvents, no VOCs, no synthetic fragrance, no chlorine, no APEs, no quats.Ce qui n'est pas dedans. Sans phosphates, sans parabènes, sans solvants pétroliers, sans COV, sans parfum synthétique, sans chlore, sans APE, sans quats.

03 Benefits
Zero-Waste · Pre-Dosed · Surface-VersatileZéro déchet · Pré-dosé · Polyvalent
- No plastic bottle. Strips ship in a recyclable paper carton — about 95% less packaging plastic than a liquid concentrate that delivers the same number of mop buckets.Sans bouteille plastique. Les bandelettes sont livrées dans un carton recyclable — environ 95 % de plastique d'emballage en moins qu'un concentré liquide pour le même nombre de seaux de vadrouille.
- Pre-dosed, no measuring. One strip = one ~5 L bucket. Half a strip for routine mopping (strips perforate cleanly). No more pouring caps or eyeballing the right ratio.Pré-dosé, sans mesurer. Une bandelette = un seau d'~5 L. La moitié d'une bandelette pour l'entretien régulier (les bandelettes se séparent proprement). Plus besoin de doser au bouchon ni d'estimer le bon ratio.
- Light to ship, light to store. A pack of 60 strips weighs less than a single 1 L bottle of liquid floor cleaner. Long shelf life, no leak risk.Léger à transporter, léger à ranger. Un paquet de 60 bandelettes pèse moins qu'une seule bouteille de 1 L de nettoyant liquide. Longue durée de conservation, aucun risque de fuite.
- Surface-versatile. pH-balanced and acid-free. Won't etch sealed marble or travertine. Won't strip the finish on sealed hardwood. Wring your mop well on wood regardless.Polyvalent sur les surfaces. pH équilibré et sans acide. N'attaquera pas le marbre ou travertin scellé. Ne décollera pas le fini d'un bois franc scellé. Essorez bien votre vadrouille sur bois quoi qu'il en soit.
- Dissolves cleanly. Water-soluble carrier film breaks down in 30–60 seconds in warm water. Not plastic.Se dissout proprement. Film support hydrosoluble qui se décompose en 30–60 secondes dans l'eau tiède. Pas du plastique.

04 How to Use
Drop, Dissolve, Mop — No RinseDéposez, dissolvez, vadrouillez — sans rinçage
Fill Your Bucket With Warm WaterRemplissez votre seau d'eau tiède
About 5 litres for a standard mop bucket. Cold water works too — the strip dissolves more slowly.Environ 5 litres pour un seau standard. L'eau froide fonctionne aussi — la bandelette se dissout plus lentement.
Drop In One StripDéposez une bandelette
One full strip for a deep clean (1 strip / ~5 L). Half a strip for routine mopping (½ strip / ~5 L) — strips perforate and tear cleanly. Wait 30–60 seconds for full dissolve.Une bandelette entière pour un nettoyage en profondeur (1 bandelette / ~5 L). La moitié d'une bandelette pour l'entretien régulier (½ bandelette / ~5 L) — les bandelettes se séparent proprement. Attendez 30–60 secondes pour la dissolution complète.
Mop — No Rinse NeededVadrouillez — sans rinçage
Mop as you would with any cleaner. The plant-surfactant solution doesn't leave a sticky film, so no second-pass rinse is required. Bucket water can go down the drain or onto a garden bed if mostly clean.Vadrouillez comme avec n'importe quel nettoyant. La solution de tensioactifs végétaux ne laisse pas de film collant, donc aucun rinçage secondaire n'est requis. L'eau du seau peut aller dans le drain ou dans un parterre si elle est relativement propre.
TipAstuce
If your bucket is smaller (3 L is common), tear the strip along the perforation. The strips dissolve faster in warm water; cold works but is slower. Septic systems: do a one-bucket compatibility test on day one if your tank is older or has been dosed with antibiotics or bleach recently.Si votre seau est plus petit (3 L est courant), déchirez la bandelette à la perforation. Les bandelettes se dissolvent plus rapidement dans l'eau tiède ; l'eau froide fonctionne mais plus lentement. Fosses septiques : faites un test de compatibilité d'un seau le premier jour si votre fosse est plus ancienne ou a reçu des antibiotiques ou de la javel récemment.

Real Floors. Real Households.
What Customers Say After the Switch
From greenwash-burned shoppers to allergy households — here's what changed when they dropped a strip in the bucket.
“I'd already tried Method, Mrs. Meyer's, and a couple of refill-pod brands. This is the first one where the floor actually felt clean and the kitchen didn't smell like an air freshener for the rest of the day.”
“My son's asthma reacts to most cleaners. I bought one pack to try. No flare-up the whole week we mopped with it. Switching the rest of the cabinet over now.”
“Our baby crawls everywhere. I needed something I could use without thinking about what residue she'd be putting in her mouth. Plant ingredients I can pronounce, no fragrance fog — finally.”
“The bottle pile under my sink was getting embarrassing. One pouch in the drawer replaces six or seven bottles. Took 30 seconds to dissolve, the floor came out spotless. Bought again the same week.”
“Two dogs, one cat, hardwood throughout. I was worried about the finish — some “eco” cleaners I've tried left a film. This left nothing. Floor looked like the day it was refinished.”
“Bought it for the cottage so I wouldn't have to lug a 1L bottle up. The pouch fits in a kitchen drawer. Same clean, no shipping water across the country.”
“I'm on septic and was nervous. One bucket test, no issues, then I switched the routine. Three months in, septic is fine, floors are cleaner than they were on the previous brand.”
The Truth About Floor Cleaner
You're Mostly Buying Water in a Plastic Bottle.
A 1 L bottle of liquid floor cleaner is roughly 90% water. The other 10% is what's actually doing the cleaning — and what's often doing damage.
Conventional floor cleaners load that 10% with petroleum-derived surfactants, phosphates, synthetic fragrance, and VOCs — compounds linked to indoor air quality issues, respiratory irritation, and downstream water harm.
Then the bottle ships from a factory to a warehouse to your door. You're paying to ship a bottle of water across the country — with the active dose along for the ride.
When the bottle's empty, it joins the ~14 billion plastic cleaning bottles thrown out in North America each year. Your floor isn't the problem. The format is.
Removing the water solves three problems at once: the plastic bottle disappears, the shipping weight drops by ~95%, and you choose how concentrated each bucket is — instead of trusting a manufacturer's pre-mix.
“I switched because of the bottles. I stayed because the floor actually got cleaner without the chemical smell hanging in the house for hours.”— Sampson Customer

We Spent 30+ Years Cleaning Up Contamination. Then We Checked Under the Sink. Nous avons passé 30+ ans à décontaminer des sites. Puis nous avons regardé sous l'évier.
Diana Trasente and Angelo Diadelfo are environmental engineers with Master's degrees and over 30 years remediating contaminated soil and water across Canada. They know industrial chemicals intimately — PCBs, heavy metals, synthetic surfactants, petroleum solvents. Diana Trasente et Angelo Diadelfo sont des ingénieurs en environnement avec des maîtrises et plus de 30 ans d'expérience en décontamination de sols et d'eau au Canada.
Then they started reading the labels on their own household cleaners. The same classes of synthetic chemicals they spent their careers cleaning up were sitting in their kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room. Puis ils ont commencé à lire les étiquettes des nettoyants ménagers chez eux. Les mêmes classes de produits chimiques qu'ils passaient leur carrière à nettoyer se trouvaient dans leur cuisine, salle de bain et buanderie.
In 2010, they founded Sampson Eco Shop — applying the same scientific rigor to household cleaners that they applied to environmental remediation. Every product starts with one question: What's actually in here, and is it safe to put down a drain? En 2010, ils ont fondé Sampson Eco Shop — appliquant la même rigueur scientifique aux nettoyants ménagers qu'à la décontamination. Chaque produit commence par une question: Qu'est-ce qu'il y a vraiment dedans, et est-ce sécuritaire de l'envoyer dans un drain?

The Method
A Floor Cleaner With the Water Removed.
Liquid floor cleaner is mostly water. We dehydrated it. What ships in a 60-strip pack does the same job as roughly seven 1L plastic bottles of conventional cleaner.
Drop a Strip
Drop ½ strip into ~5 L of warm water for routine mopping. Drop a full strip for deep cleans.
It Dissolves
Plant-derived surfactants release into the water in seconds. No measuring. No dilution math. No mess.
Mop & Walk Away
Works on ceramic, natural stone, and sealed wood. No rinse required. Streak-free, no residue.
Removing the water removes ~95% of the plastic. A 60-strip pack ships in a paper-fibre pouch. The same volume of liquid cleaner ships in seven plastic bottles, packed in cardboard, on a heavier truck. The format is the savings.
Same plant-based chemistry as our liquid Eco Floor Cleaner. We just left the water at home.

Format Matters
How Eco-Strips Compare to What's On The Shelf
Floor cleaning has more delivery formats than people realize. Here's how each one ships, cleans, and disposes.
| Sampson Eco-Strips | Liquid Floor Cleaner (Plastic Bottle) | Industrial Concentrate | Disposable Mop Pad | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Format | Dissolvable strip | Pre-mixed liquid | Concentrated liquid | Soaked disposable |
| Plastic Per Use | None | Bottle + cap | Heavy bottle | Pad + wrapper |
| Shipping Weight | ~95% lighter | Heavy (90% water) | Heavy | Medium |
| Plant-Based Surfactants | Varies | |||
| VOCs | Zero | Common | Common | Common |
| Synthetic Fragrance | ||||
| Phosphates | Sometimes | Often | Sometimes | |
| Septic-Safe (Standard Use) | Varies | Varies | ||
| Made in Canada | Mostly imported | Mostly imported | Mostly imported | |
| Engineer-Formulated | M.Eng. + 30yr Env. | Corporation | Industrial chemist | Corporation |
The format is the difference. Same plant chemistry, same engineering rigor — without the bottle, the water weight, or the synthetic add-ons.
