Our natural laundry powder is tough on dirt and stains, yet is gentle on your clothes and the earth. Unlike conventional laundry detergents, ours won't leave residues that may irritate sensitive skin.

Why are vegetable based cleaners better?
Most laundry detergents are made from petroleum based cleaners whic use oil, a precious, limited natural resource that will someday be depleted. Our vegetable based cleaners are made from a renewable resources and therefore save petroleum.

What are optical brighteners?
Found in most laundry detergents (but of course not ours) these fluorescent chemicals convert ultra-violet light to blue-white light that makes whites appear whiter. They don't readily biodegrade and are often toxic to aquatic life.

What are phosphates?
Phosphates are used in detergents to soften water. Phosphates can cause algae blooms in lakes and ponds that can lead to the suffocation of aquatic plants and animals.

Why is chlorine bleaching dangerous?
The production and use of chlorine bleach creates dangerous toxins such asa dioxin, furans and other organochlorines. Once loose in the environment, these chemicals accumulate in both people and animals. Hundreds of studies have shown a direct link between dioxin exposure and cancer, birth defects and developmental and reproductive disorders. The non-chlorine bleach in our laundry powder is an oxygen safe bleach, which readily degrades into oxygen and water.
