Bathroom
 - The right tile grout and sealer is water repellant, suppresses stains, and naturally resists mold and mildew, such as the AFM Grout Sealer.
- If you are regrouting, pre-treat the exposed area with Moldex Protectant-a mold and mildew resistant formula-prior to sealing, to prevent future mold growth.
- Conventional household cleaning products are among the most hazardous materials sold direct to consumers. Harsher does not mean cleaner. Cleaning green is easier on the eyes, skin, lungs, and environment. There are many options available to consumers, including NYC-made Green Depot Cleaning formulas.
- The Sprite shower filter removes chlorine and other harmful substances from your water, while the Oxygenics TriSpa low-flow showerhead injects air to deliver a powerful, comfortable shower while conserving water.
- The new Casabella cleaning accessories line, premiering exclusively at Green Depot, features a system of buckets, mops, sweepers and other tools made from recycled PET plastic soda bottles.
- The Ecogen line of home accessories made of a cornstarch-derived polymer that is biodegradeable. If you ever decide it's time for a design change in the bathroom, your soapdish and toothbrush holder can be composted right in your backyard.
- Caroma's line of dual-flush toilets are breakthrough in water-saving technology. Two buttons let you choose between a small flush (0.8 gallons) or a larger flush (1.6 gallons). Matching sinks, too!
- Local salvage can be the ideal place to find reclaimed, vintage bathroom fixtures that can be retrofitted with water-saving devices such as the Aquanotion, which turns a conventional toilet into a dual-flush system.
- Compact fluorescent lightbulbs (CFLs) now come available in a range of bases and shapes, sure to fit any bathroom fixture.
- For enclosed bathrooms, the Solatube 14" tubular skylight and ventilation kit provides natural light and helps reduce moisture. Reflective tubing is so efficient that light can bend around corners!
- Your baby's bathroom needs can be met in a greener, way, too. The Naty disposable diapers and wipes are made with sustainably harvested tree pulp and a corn-starch plastic cover: healthier for babies and the planet.
- It doesn't stop at home. Green your office by installing a Dyson Airblade Hand Dryer in the company bathroom-no more paper towel waste or chapped hands.
