Meet Esha and Mitesh Thakkar, whose NetZero Living took birth towards the end of 2020 – at the peak of the raging pandemic.  It all started with Mitesh having mouth ulcers and skin issues that were taking too long to resolve despite using several commercially available ‘natural’ products.  When nothing worked, the couple decided to try some innovative remedies themselves, and they worked! They made tooth powders and bath powders in small batches and gave it to friends and relatives.  They quickly realised that everything that was marketed as ‘natural’ was not, in fact, ‘natural’. One thing led to another, and encouraged by the responses their products were receiving, the avid nature lovers decided to formalise their efforts, and thus NetZero Living was born. 

The name itself is suggestive of what the brand stands for.  Esha and Mitesh bat for ‘conscious consumerism’ and they now offer personal care and lifestyle products that reduce plastic and chemical waste.  They believe that its not only important to be conscious of what goes into our systems, but also be equally conscious of what goes down the drain, so to say. 

Their Hemp Shaving Bar is worth a mention, as also their products made of cork. 

Cork, Esha tells us, is one of the most sustainable products on the earth.  It is made from the bark of the cork oak tree.  The tree itself is not cut to harvest the bark, and only a portion is culled out.  The tree not only regenerates the bark, but in the process also takes in 5 times the carbon dioxide than it normally does!  NetZero Living has, in its product repertoire, cork yoga mats and wallets.   Micro plastics are used in foam yoga mats, whereas their cork yoga mats are not just completely plastic free, but also last longer.  Cork also displays properties very similar to genuine leather and is an animal cruelty free product.  It is a very good alternative to leather, the manufacture of which involves the highly polluting process of tanning. 

Esha and Mitesh are in a constant search to find sustainable alternatives and their aim is to replace as many products as possible that we use in our daily lives, with plastic or chemical-free versions.

IndyMandi is proud to count NetZero Living amongst our sellers.  Each one of us can make a difference. The next time we say, what difference is one plastic bottle going to make, lets pause and ask – what if everyone said the same thing? 

Let us support people like Esha and Mitesh and commit ourselves to make this Earth a better place to live in.  We wish Esha and Mitesh Thakkar continued success! More power to them and may their tribe increase!
